Creamy Chicken and Tomato Soup

A Paleo Creamy Chicken and Tomato Soup
 

One of the things I love most about winter time is ability a bowl of soup has to warm you up.  Add to it a super soft blanket, roaring fire in the fireplace and a quiet house and that is my recipe for a perfect afternoon.  Who am I kidding?  It's never quiet at my house for a whole afternoon.  30 minutes is more like it and I wouldn't have it any other way!
 
Here is a great recipe for a hearty soup that will guarantee to keep you warm on those cold and wet days.  Follow the recipe below or substitute the herb ingredients with 2 TBSP of taco seasoning for a spicier option.

 
Ingredients:
 
  • 8 skinless boneless chicken breast
  • 2 TBSP Italian Seasoning
  • 1TBSP Dried Basil
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 large Onion; chopped
  • 2 14 oz cans of coconut milk (shake before opening can to avoid separation)
  • 2 14 oz cans Diced Tomatoes (with juice)
  • 2 cups of Chicken Broth
  • 1 6 oz can of Tomato Paste
  • 1/2 can of tomato sauce (Or even better,  make your own!  I'll give you a recipe soon)
  • Sea Salt and Pepper to taste
Directions:
 
Put all the above ingredients into the crock-pot and cook on high for 6 hours or low for 9 hours.  After suggested time, remove chicken and shred with two forks.  Return shredded chicken to crock-pot and keep warm until ready to serve.
