·

Welcome to Episode 1 of my NEW Cozy Soups & Grilled Cheese Series! Today, we're making a (Panera Bread Copycat) Creamy Roasted Garlic Chicken Gnocchi Soup that is made with roasted garlic, so it's high in antibacterial properties and antioxidant to help you fight off sickness, keep a strong immune system and reduce inflammation.

Ingredients you'll need:

  • 16 oz. Potato Gnocchi
  • 2 cups Cooked Shredded Chicken
  • 2 cups Kale, finely chopped
  • 2-3 large Carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 3 tbsp. Olive Oil
  • 2 Heads of Garlic
  • 1 tsp. EACH: Salt, Black Pepper, Dried Parsley, Dried Basil, & Dried Oregano
  • 2 tbsp. Flour
  • 4 cups Broth
  • 1 cup Whole Milk
  • 1/3 cup Heavy Cream, or Full Fat Coconut Milk
  • 3/4 cup Grated Parmesan

Health benefits of garlic:

About 10 years ago, I remember our neighbor telling us about all the incredible health benefits of garlic when you let it rest after mincing for 15 minutes. Fast forward to today, and her words are seared in my brain for good!

  • Regulates blood pressure and sugar
  • Strengthens immune system
  • Prevents heart disease
  • Detoxification
  • Anti-inflammatory
  • Prevents and treats colds (!!)
  • Improves bone health
  • Lowers cholesterol
  • High in antioxidants and antibacterial properties
  • Anti-cancer properties

How to Store Leftover Gnocchi Soup:

Gnocchi, being made from potatoes, is naturally going to thicken the soup overtime. However, you can store this soup once cooled in airtight containers in the fridge up to 3 days. When ready to reheat in the microwave or on stovetop, I suggest adding more broth to help thin out the thickness.

What to Serve with Gnocchi Soup:

  • Garlic bread
  • Crostini
  • Artisanal baguette, sliced
  • Caesar salad
