Chicken Gnocchi Soup is a hearty, filling soup, perfect for warming you up from the inside out.
You all know me well enough to know that food and I have a pretty close relationship. I turn to it when I’m sad, happy, celebrating, crying, etc. so as you can imagine, during this emotional week, food and I have been BFF’s. You know how freshmen in college gain the freshman 15? Well, I’m pretty sure I’m on my way to the Election 2016 15. I’ve been eating such junk lately! I finally pulled myself together this weekend and decided to stop treating my body like crap. It was time for some good food and nourishment, not just random crap from whatever drawer or cabinet I pull it from.
This Chicken Gnocchi Soup is the perfect blend of comfort and nourishment. It’s hearty, like a soup should be in times like these, and comforting. It warms you up from the inside out and nourishes you with each and every bite. Aside from a little chopping and can opening, putting this Chicken Gnocchi Soup together is fairly simple. Again, simple is necessary as we ease back into reality.
For one more simple step, buy premade Gnocchi. I like Delallo Foods Potato Gnocchi, but you can use any frozen or pre-packaged gnocchi you have available.
OK friends, enough blabbing. Are you ready for the recipe? Dive into a bowl of comfort when you try this Chicken Gnocchi Soup. And remember… I’m here if you need to talk. All the love!
