The Best Chicken Soup For Colds That Is Whole30 Approved

Soup is the best comfort food when you are sick

      I received samples from Safe Harvest to facilitate this post.

 The other day one of my sons woke up feeling sick. He had a fever, the chills, a headache, and more. My son was just plain miserable. I sent him to the couch for a day of lazy, do nothing so his body could get better. I was glad that it was not a school day so he did not have to miss any school. So that made it easier for my son to rest as he hates missing school. My son said that his head hurt and his body ached. Oh, how I hate winter colds and flu season. I always try my best to keep my family healthy with the best natural products for cold and flu season but those airborne germs can be strong.



 So once my son was comfortable on the couch, I grabbed the container of all my health and wellness products that help fight the cold and flu. I took his temperature and it was high. So I gave my son some elderberry and vitamin C. Then I started the tea kettle so I could make him a cup of Cold & Flu Honey Lemon Ginger Tea. This warm tea is soothing and helps with those miserable cold symptoms like a sore throat. Tea is also a great way to get liquids into a kid's body as liquids are great for colds. The other thing that is amazing for colds is a warm bowl of soup. I think when people are sick they just want some comfort food and soup is one of the best comfort foods. When people think of soup for colds, they think of chicken noodle soup. Chicken noodle soup is a cold and flu comfort soup. I ask my son if he felt like eating and thankfully he did. So I looked in the pantry and found some Chicken Oodle Soup. No, I did not misspell the word noodle. The soup that I had in my pantry was a Whole30 Approved soup that is made with clean wholesome ingredients. Since my husband is trying to lower his blood pressure, I am trying to select more grain-free products for him to enjoy as it is suggested that carbs can spike his blood pressure. I am not too sure about the no-carb or keto diet but I am trying to be more carb-conscious with my family's diet.

 I am also having my husband follow a new way of eating and the diet plan that I recommend that he follow was the pegan diet. This food plan is similar to how I already eat as it has a strong emphasis on eating lots of veggies and following a vegan diet with some fish and other meats. I like that the pegan diet does not restrict those carbohydrates but rather limits them to whole grains. So the soup that I had in my pantry was Paleo-friendly and dairy-free but still had the organic meat in it that my husband and son love. This delicious soup was also gluten-free and had plenty of protein in it from organic chicken. The Safe Harvest soup also had healthy bone broth in it. So this Chicken Oodle was a healthy soup that would nourish my son's body so he could fight this awful cold.

Safe Harvest is a new soup line in glass jars at grocers nationwide that is Paleo, Dairy-Free, Grain-Free, Gluten-Free, and Whole30 Approved® with no added sugar. Safe Harvest Chicken Oodle Soup is made with organic chicken, bone broth, hearts of palm pasta and hearty vegetables with 11 grams of protein per jar.



My son enjoyed his warm bowl of chicken soup. My son liked the big pieces of chicken in the soup and said that the broth had amazing flavor. My son also enjoyed the hearts of palm pasta and thought it was very similar to regular noodles. While my son was enjoying his delicious soup, I decided to make myself a bowl of soup since it was a cold day outside. Soup is always the perfect meal for cold days. I decided to try the Dairy-Free Shrimp Bisque. I love that somebody made a Shrimp Bisque that was dairy-free so I could enjoy Shrimp Bisque. Since discovering my dairy allergy through a blood test last year, I have not been able to enjoy a bowl of shrimp bisque as it contains milk. So when I discover a Dairy-Free Shrimp Bisque from Safe Harvest, I was overjoyed. This Dairy-Free Shrimp Bisque uses organic coconut milk and cauliflower in place of dairy found in traditional cream-based chowder. It also tests every batch of Wild cold-water shrimp for mercury to ensure purity. The Wild cold-water shrimp are sustainably sourced which is a good thing. Like the Chicken Oodle soup, this  Shrimp Bisque is also Whole30 approved and grain-free, making it a gluten-free soup that people on the paleo diet can enjoy.

 Safe Harvest also makes a delicious dairy-free salmon chowder and an amazing Dairy-Free Shrimp Bisque. All their soups are made with clean wholesome ingredients just like I would use if I made homemade soup. When I don't have time to male my homemade vegan posole, I can just open a jar of dairy-free Safe Harvest soup. I love that Safe Harvest created these soups to provide healthy, delightful alternatives for consumers who have allergies or dietary restrictions around dairy, gluten, and grains, and for consumers looking for a better tasting and more nutritious soup. If you live in New Mexico, you can find Safe Harvest  Whole30 Approved soups at Smiths. These healthy soups are sold all throughout the United States so look for them in a store near you.

Six Healthy Products To Try This Spring

 I received samples of products to facilitate this post.

 I am always on the lookout for new healthy products that are unique and I can incorporate into my home. My favorite healthy products are food products as I do like eating. Other healthy products that I am always on the lookout for are beauty products, supplements, and ones that make my life easier. So when I discover a new product, I like to share it with others so they too can go check it out. I discovered plenty of new products in the past month and I will be sharing some of my favorites with you.

Food products for many types of meal plans 

I get excited when I discover food products that are unique and can be enjoyed on many types of meal plans. It seems like today that many people are turning to healthy diets and are on a food plan like vegan, plant-based, whole 30, raw, paleo, and keto. Each of these meal plans allows different foods and it can be hard to remember which foods are allowed. So when a food package has ingredients that are allowed on all these food plans, I think that is amazing. It must mean that the ingredients are healthy and clean. When a product also is allergy-friendly and contains no dairy, it is one that makes my favorite list if it tastes good too. I don't care how healthy a food is, I am not going to eat it if it doesn't taste good.

Tasty Wrawps with simple ingredients

 These tasty food wraps are made with 100% real fruits, vegetables, and superfood spices. They are the perfect starter for healthy meals. I love that they are organic, gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan. Since they are not processed, as the ingredients are dehydrated, they can be enjoyed on a raw diet. I am having fun filling the Wrawp wrappers with different sweet and savory ingredients. My favorite way to enjoy these delicious vegetarian wraps is with hummus and veggies. I used the Veggie Life Wrawp flavor today when I made my sushi burrito and it kept all the ingredients together. I need to use these wrappers the next time I make a batch of my Plant-Based BBQ Pulled "pork" Jackfruit Tacos and sub these for the tortillas for a healthier low carb meal.

 When I get to the store to buy some vegan cream cheese, I will be filling the Strawberry Coco Nori Wrawp with fresh sliced strawberries and vegan cream cheese. This will make the perfect healthy dairy-free dessert.

 All the non-GMO ingredients in these unique wraps are ground, then mixed together, and dehydrated to craft the perfect, healthy wrap. The best part is all ingredients are clean, with no added chemicals or processed additives. The Wrawps come in many delicious flavors and are available online and in stores like Whole Foods.

A supplement with the power of broccoli sprouts

 I am discovering this supplement that has the power of broccoli sprouts in two easy to take capsules. This supplement has the power of broccoli sprouts and Sulforaphane. The most potent natural dietary source of Sulforaphane is fresh young whole broccoli sprouts, as they contain the key Myrosinase enzyme and Glucoraphanin compound. BROC SPROUT 2 is a unique supplement that delivers these two dynamic components in a single capsule. This supplement helps optimum the function of the cells in our body. This supplement will be great to keep my body healthy in addition to my healthy eating habits. Discover HERE what I eat in a day to stay healthy.


The Sulforaphane capacity from a single BROC SPROUT 2 capsule could be equal to as much as 10lbs (4.54kg) of fresh whole broccoli sprouts eaten daily!


Fall in love with your single serve coffee maker again

 Do you feel guilty of adding all those plastic k-cups to the landfill? This may have caused you to stop using your single serve coffee maker for your daily coffee fix. If you are like me I stopped using my Keurig machine as those single serve coffee pods were kind of pricey and I did not like the thought of brewing my coffee in a plastic reusable coffee pod. So I was happy that Perfect Pod made a stylish-looking ECO-Flow Stainless Steel K-Cup that fit my Keurig coffee maker perfectly. I could now use my own favorite coffee and enjoy a single cup of coffee once again without plastic waste. 

 Perfect Pod even makes paper filters that fit inside the Eco-Flow stainless steel reusable coffee filter. These biodegradable filters trap coffee's natural oils and sediment for a smooth, satisfying cup of coffee. These paper filters make cleaning the reusable pod so easy.  To make your coffee experience, even more, easier, this EZ-Scoop allows you to scoop the perfect amount of coffee(2 TBSP), for your refillable Eco-flow coffee filter and even has a built-in funnel so making your cup of coffee is mess free and easy. All of these amazing coffee products are compatible with Keurig 1.0 and 2.0 brewers, Breville, Mr. Coffee, and Cuisinart without requiring any adapters and are available on Amazon.

Explore tahini beyond hummus

When people think of tahini, they think of it as the main ingredient in hummus. Well, Mighty Sesame is taking roasted sesame seeds to new heights and just came out with a delicious versatile ready to eat Squeeze and Serve Tahini. This 100 percent slow-roasted sesame seed spread is sold in a squeeze bottle and it is so yummy straight from the bottle. Of course, you can use it to make hummus but it is also a great ingredient in dips, marinades, sandwiches, and desserts. My favorite way to eat this tasty dairy-free tahini spread is on a toasted bagel. This product is organic, vegan, gluten- and dairy-free, kosher, halal, and Keto-friendly. It is the perfect way to add flavor to any diet with just one ingredient.

Keto-friendly sauces

      The Keto diet is a popular trend right now and Guy Gone Keto products were created for the low carb lifestyle. These delicious sauces are made with KetoseSweet, a new natural low-calorie sweetener containing allulose, stevia, and monk fruit. This sweetener has no effect on blood glucose levels so these sauces will allow you to flavor your food and stay on your food plan. They come in five varieties and are great for many meal plans like Paleo, Keto, LCHF, and Primal. I don't follow any of these meal plans but I love that these sauces are low in sugar and made with natural flavors. I will be using these delicious sauces in dishes like my pressure cooker baked beans, stir-fry, and my Plant-Based BBQ Pulled "pork" Jackfruit Tacos as less sugar in my diet is always good.

Sweet and Tangy Ketchup

Hickory Smoked BBQ Sauce

Bright and Peppery Steak Sauce

Hot and Sweet Thai Chili Sauce

Ginger Rich Teriyaki Sauce

 I also received a wonderful book with these delicious sauces that has great information about the Keto meal plan. This book helped me to better understand what the Keto diet is and to know what foods are allowed on it. Guy Gone Keto is about Thom King’s personal keto success story. In his new book, Thom reveals his struggles with his weight and health, and how he overcame his challenges. He shares his tips for understanding food labels and also some tasty recipes so you can follow the Keto meal plan. Thom is the support that you need to take charge of your health and make the Keto diet work for you. You can find this book on Amazon.

Keto-legal sweetener

 My choice of sweetener for my coffee is Stevia as I try not to consume too much sugar. While Stevia is great in coffee it doesn't do well in baking. So I am glad that I discovered a sweetener that allows me to bake with less sugar. KetoseSweet is a safe, non-caloric, non-glycemic sweetener that contains
allulose — a rare natural sugar found in maple syrup, figs, and raisins. This Keto and Paleo-friendly sweetener is safe for diabetics and those following an ultra-low-sugar diet. Allulose has been shown to enhance fat metabolism and it may help with achieving and maintaining healthy body weight. I love that this low-calorie sweetener caramelizes and browns just like sugar. I will be using this delicious sweetener in my baking as well as my coffee. I love that this sweetener flavors my coffee with no bad aftertaste.
