CHICKEN AND CAULIFLOWER RICE SOUP
Sometimes you need the comfort and healing power of chicken noodle soup but could do without the noodles. For those times, there's this herby and aromatic soup featuring fresh ginger, jalapeño, green onion, basil and cilantro, and made complete with tender chunks of chicken thighs and a rich chicken broth. In place of noodles, this soup features cauliflower rice-find it in the freezer section of your grocery store. This cruciferous vegetable does double duty here by making a satisfying textural substitute for the rice or noodles you might normally add to your chicken soup, while also adding some healthful benefits-cauliflower is loaded with nutrients, fiber, vitamins and potassium. The final twist in this soup recipe is the tablespoon of soy sauce stirred in at the end for extra savory flavor that'll have you coming back for a second bowl! So next time you need to heal your body or soul, do it with the help of this non-traditional but just-as-soothing chicken soup!

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices will give your soup the best flavor. If you can, try to use organic ingredients whenever possible.
- Roast the cauliflower before adding it to the soup: Roasting the cauliflower will bring out its natural sweetness and give the soup a richer flavor.
- Don't overcook the soup: Overcooked soup will be mushy and bland. Cook the soup just until the vegetables are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or vinegar to brighten the flavors.
- Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for chicken cauliflower soup include shredded cheese, croutons, and chopped parsley.
