🥣 Ingredients For a Creamy Chicken Pot Pie Soup Recipe

This dairy-free chicken pot pie soup is designed with gut health in mind, featuring ingredients that promote digestion, gluten-free, dairy-free, and provides essential nutrients.

1. Chicken Breast - A lean source of protein, chicken helps in tissue repair and maintain a healthy metabolism.
2. Coconut Milk - This adds that element of creaminess to the soup that can't be left out.
3. Veggies - I used a combination of peas, carrots, corn, onions, celery, mushrooms, and potatoes. I also added spinach, but that is not a traditional pot pie soup ingredient. I simply love spinach.
4. Bone Broth - Great for gut health and adds tons of deep flavor. Try my homemade bone broth recipe, or you can use your favorite brand of broth.
5. Extra Virgin Olive Oil - I like extra virgin olive oil, but you can swap with avocado oil.
6. Gluten-Free Flour - This is used as a stable thickener for the pot pie soup. If you don't have this flour on hand, swap with arrowroot, tapioca starch or even corn starch.
7. Spices & Herbs - In addition to salt and pepper, I added thyme, sage, and bay leaves.
8. Fresh Garlic - Garlic adds a pungent and savory depth that complements the soup nicely. If you can't find fresh garlic, opt for garlic powder instead.

🩺 Nutritional Health Benefits of This Chicken Pot Pie Soup For Gut Health

This chicken pot pie soup is not just a comforting meal—it’s packed with ingredients that support gut health and well-being. Each component plays a role in promoting digestion, reducing inflammation, and nourishing the body.

• Peas - Rich in soluble fiber, peas help regulate digestion by feeding healthy gut bacteria, reducing bloating, and promoting regularity.
• Carrots - High in antioxidants like beta-carotene, carrots support a healthy gut lining, which is essential for nutrient absorption and overall gut function.
• Mushrooms - A great source of prebiotics, mushrooms help feed the beneficial bacteria in your gut, contributing to a balanced microbiome.
• Coconut Milk - The healthy fats in coconut milk contain medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which are easily digested and absorbed, offering anti-inflammatory benefits for the digestive system.
• Bone Broth - Made from simmering chicken, the bone broth contains collagen and amino acids that can help repair and strengthen the gut lining.
• Potatoes - Their high potassium content supports digestive function by helping maintain healthy fluid balance, while their fiber aids in smooth digestion.

🍴 Serving Suggestions

This chicken pot pie soup pairs perfectly with my gluten-free biscuits. The light, fluffy texture of the biscuits complements the creamy, hearty soup for a balanced and comforting meal.

I love to serve soup and salad for a delicious lunch idea. I recommend my gut friendly massaged kale salad or roasted beet salad.

❄️ Storage

Store any leftover chicken pot pie soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Freeze - Transfer the soup to a freezer-safe container and store for up to 3 months.

Reheat - Reheat on the stove over low heat, adding a splash of water or broth to thin it out if needed.

😷 Food Safety

Food safety is a serious concern, especially when preparing raw chicken. Here are a few food safety tips to be reminded of.

• Wash hands properly with soap and water for 20 seconds after touching raw chicken.
• Cook chicken to a minimum temperature of 165 °F (74 °C)
• Do not use the same utensils on cooked food that previously touched raw chicken. This is especially true if prepping a raw salad on the side.
• Don't leave food sitting out at room temperature for extended periods.
• Don't wash raw chicken before cooking it. This is not necessary, as any bacteria will be killed after cooking. Washing raw chicken is the fastest way to result in cross-contamination and food-borne illness.
