Chicken noodle soup is the quintessential cold weather soup and comfort food. Unfortunately, those store-bought varieties are filled with ingredients likely to make you even more sick in the long run than that cold you might be nursing.

Do you have a spiralizer yet? If not, what are you waiting for?? My spiralizer has been essential to our Whole30 eating. I have spiralized everything from zucchini to carrots to sweet potatoes.

The “noodles” are surprisingly similar in texture to traditional pasta noodles. I have used them in all sorts of recipes: I replaced spaghetti squash with zoodles in my Paleo and Whole30 Spaghetti and Meatballs, used them as a base in these Paleo and Whole30 Sloppy Joes and even subbed them for lettuce in our Paleo and Whole30 Taco Salad Bowls! Just delicious.

This Paleo and Whole30 Chicken Noodle Soup is nice and creamy. Any kind of soup is my fav if it’s creamy. If you’re more of a brothy-not-creamy soup person, that’s okay too! Just leave out the coconut milk at the end. But if you’re not sure, definitely give it a shot. You won’t be disappointed!
