The art of nourishing your family

My chicken and vegetable soup is legendary among my clients and their families, not just because it's packed with nutrients but because it's one of those recipes that brings hungry bellies to the table with smiles.

I'd love to let you in to a little secret: the magic of this soup isn't just in its ingredients (though they're rather supercharged). It's in how it transforms your kitchen into a hub of warmth and connection. The gentle simmer of the stock, the aromatic herbs and the rainbow of vegetables create an invitation that's hard to resist.

What makes this soup a family favourite? First, it's incredibly versatile. I often tell parents that this recipe is their secret weapon for sneaking extra vegetables into their children’s bowls. The slow-simmered organic chicken creates a flavoursome base without needing vegetables to take centre stage.

While the ingredient list might look long, the method is wonderfully straightforward. Let time do the work for you. Sauté your aromatics, add your chicken and stock and let it bubble away while you do other things around the house. You might even like to put your feet up!

From a nutritional perspective, this soup is a healthy way to add macro and micronutrients into your meals. The organic chicken provides good-quality protein essential for growing bodies and maintaining energy levels. The rainbow of vegetables delivers a spectrum of vitamins and antioxidants that support everything from immune function to skin health.
