There’s nothing like a good chicken soup to whip up if you’re feeling under the weather or in need of some good nourishing comfort soup.

This Soul Food Chicken Meatball Soup is my fun spin on chicken soup with super tasty blender meatballs that take minutes to prepare. It's great if you’re starting out on a low-carb diet and suffering with keto-flu. It's full of electrolytes and gut healing broth that will help starve of symptoms.

This recipe makes 3 to 4 generous servings that can be served as mains, or 6 to 8 appetiser sized servings.
