Low FODMAP Soup
I'm back with another low FODMAP recipe that is easy and delicious! One of the huge adjustments of this diet is no garlic or garlic powder! I was used to adding that to everything and without it some recipes taste kind of flat. Well, I discovered garlic infused oil is allowed and it's been a life saver! I've been using it for so many recipes to add that distinct flavor and it's working. I found some at a health food store and then I ordered more from Amazon.
Now about this soup- it is so easy to make and comes together quickly. It's made in one pan which is always nice for cleanup. I used a cast iron brasier, but a stock pot or dutch oven will work great as well. Using fire roasted canned tomatoes for this is the best because they have more flavor and don't taste as "canned".
I use chicken thighs for this, but chicken breasts will work as well. It would also be great without chickenand served as a side dish. Using meat makes it more of a meal for sure.
Dairy Free Soup
This soup is naturally gluten free, using coconut milk makes it dairy free and it also happens to be Whole30. But it is comforting, warm, and no one will guess it's "health" food. The combination of garlic, tomato, and basil is so perfect and satisfying. I know we are coming out of soup weather, but I think this is good enough to make even in the summer. Maybe with fresh tomatoes? That would be delicious!

I’ve made the recipe in the instant pot probably 10 times over the past few years. It’s become one of my favorite and I even serve it when I have company coming over (serve with grilled cheese). Thank you for this recipe!!!!
