Over the past week, I was sick with the flu and couldn’t seem to shake it away. One food comforted me when I was sick growing up was chicken noodle soup. However, since it is packed with salt, MSG and gluten, I wanted to make a simple soup that would be both healthy and comforting.
To make this quick soup, you simply need to combine organic vegetable broth with basmati rice and a few veggies. The result is a colourful soup that warms and nourishes your body, while helping with the healing process. You can dip some gluten-free bread into it for extra comfort!
