Cook Notes

• If using store-bought stock, adjust the salt accordingly to avoid an overly salty soup.
• The soup will thicken as it cools.

Variations

• Vegetarian Version: Skip the

chicken and use vegetable stock. Add more veggies like mushrooms or green beans.

• Gluten-Free Version: Use a gluten-free flour blend or cornstarch as a thickener.

Keto Version

To make this soup keto-friendly, substitute potatoes with cauliflower and use heavy cream instead of milk. Also, use a keto-friendly thickener like xanthan gum.

Low-Carb Version

For a low-carb version, replace potatoes with low-carb vegetables like radishes or turnips and use heavy cream. Thicken the soup with a low-carb thickener if needed.
