Calories: 133kcal
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons chicken bouillon powder
- ½ cup chopped cooked chicken rotisserie chicken is great for this
- ¼ cup shredded carrot
- ½ cup spiralized zucchini noodles cut into small noodles
- 1 green onion finely sliced
- 1½ cups boiling water
- Salt and black pepper to taste (see notes)
Instructions
- Layer chicken bouillon, chicken, carrot, zucchini noodles, and green onion in a wide-mouth pint or wide-mouth half-liter jar. Seal and store in the fridge until ready to eat, up to 5 days.
- To make soup: Bring jar to the counter to come up to room temperature (a cold jar will shatter if filled with boiling water). Once the jar is warmed up, uncover jar, then pour boiling water in, stir well, and loosely cover the jar (with the lid or a saucer) and let steep for 4- 5 minutes, until the veggies are al dente.
- Taste for seasoning, adding salt and pepper to taste, if needed. Enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Chicken bouillon powder can vary dramatically when it comes to sodium content. Most bouillon powders will not require additional seasoning—so make sure to taste the soup before you add any salt!
- The zucchini and carrot get pleasantly crisp-tender from steeping in the boiling water. If you prefer softer veggies, you can cut them into smaller pieces or steep longer.
