• 5. A Note about Gluten and Casein Free Ingredients: Since my family began this diet, we have discovered that you always have to read the labels on the foods you buy. This week when shopping I may buy something that is clearly gfcf and next week when I look for the same item I will notice they have changed the ingredient list adding dry milk, or maltodextrin, or some other questionable ingredient. I find that it's best to stick to unprocessed foods whenever possible- make it from scratch. My son is on the autism spectrum, its not the end of the world if he gets a little gluten or casein, while it may ruin his day, it isn't life threatening. I always watch him for symptoms and note the offending food. Please keep this in mind while selecting your ingredients for my GFCF recipes. Happy Careful Shopping! :)

SIMPLE CHICKEN SOUP WITH NOODLES OR RICE

Steps:

• Heat a soup pot over medium to medium-high heat, add olive oil, 2 turns of the pan. Add carrots, celery, onion, leeks-chop these items, then drop into the soup pot as you work, chopping as close as possible to the pot itself. (Use a bench scraper to move and scoop the vegetables form the cutting board to pot.) Add salt and pepper and partially cover the pot, reduce heat to medium and cook 10 minutes to soften, stirring every 2 minutes or so. Add garlic, stir, then add chicken and stock and heat to low boil. Simmer until ready to serve or while you prepare noodles or rice.
• Prepare either noodles or rice to package directions and cook separately from the soup. Add a drizzle of neutral oil to noodles once cooked to keep them from sticking if stored.
