Chicken and Spinach Soup is a family favorite. Nothing warms you up like a hot bowl of soup, especially if that soup is Chicken and Spinach Soup which packed with vitamin-rich spinach and a hearty chicken. Chicken and Spinach soup can be adjusted for Keto, low carb, or Trim Healthy Mama. I love how simple chicken and spinach soup is to make. It is very versatile. It can be made Keto, Trim Healthy Mama S, E, and FP.
Chicken and Spinach Soup

Ingredients:
- 1 lb pre-cooked chicken
- 64 oz homemade chicken stock
- 4-6 carrots
- 2 cups frozen spinach
- 2 TBSP onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 TBSP garlic powder
Directions:
- Wash, peel, slice carrots and put off to the side.
- Chop chicken into 1 inch bite sized pieces.
- Pour in chicken stock, chicken, carrots and all seasonings.
- Simmer on low heat for at least 3.5 hours.
- Stir in frozen spinach and cook for 30 minutes more.

Keto:
- Use half the carrots if you have room for the carbs or no carrots if you don’t.
- Chicken thighs offer more fat.
- Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese on top.
For an S:
- No carrots
- Chicken thighs for a higher fat content.
- Sprinkle a little Parmesan cheese on top.
For an E:
- Use chicken breast.
- Stir 1 cup of soup into 3/4 cup precooked brown rice or quinoa.
For FP:
- Use about half the chicken and carrots.
- Add more chicken stock or water.
I usually make a double batch of this soup and freeze individual portions in Ball Plastic Freezer Jars. Doing this makes for quick and easy lunches.
Another thing I like about this soup is how cost effective it is. I can take leftover oven roasted chicken, chop it up and use it in the soup. I use frozen spinach because it is much cheaper to buy a huge bag of organic frozen spinach than to buy fresh.
Do you have a favorite freezer friendly soup?
Have a great day!

I love this recipe, it’s very easy to make, and the soup is delicious. Even my daughter, which hates spinach, enjoyed a whole bowl! I froze some, I can’t wait to see if it will keep the same strong flavour it had before freezing.
Oh Jane! I’m so glad you guys enjoyed it! I often freeze ours too.
