Looking for a hot dish to warm you up on a chilly day? Try whipping up a hearty batch of Mustard Chicken Soup. The bone broth is infused with tons of vitamins and minerals, making it the perfect base for any immune-boosting soup you make.  

Our Mustard Chicken Soup is made with a secret ingredient: mustard microgreens. These tiny greens have anti-inflammatory properties, helping reduce inflammation and strengthen your body. [1] We used one cup of microgreens to make this soup, which amounts to about one tray of Instafarm™ microgreens. 

When looking for chicken bone broth at the grocery store, make sure to find a low- or no added-sodium brand. If you have a local butcher shop, they sometimes sell freshly made bone broth that’s loaded with nutrients. However, you can always make a batch at home and save money with our Chicken Bone Broth recipe.  

TIPS: 

  • If you have dried rosemary and thyme in your pantry, you can use them instead of fresh herbs to save money. Just be sure to use ½ tablespoon instead of a full tablespoon. 
  • Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) omissions and substitutions are listed in the recipe ingredients.
