CHICKEN POT-AU-FEU
"Pot on fire" is the literal translation of this French phase but in food terms it refers to a French dish of meat and vegetables simmered together creating a flavorful broth. These classic French flavors unite in our surprisingly delicious first course soup. There are plenty of flavors you'll recognize and some you won't. That's because in addition to chicken, leeks, carrots, chicken broth, and wine, we're adding rutabaga and turnips. The result is a clean, fresh tasting soup that's very skinny. One serving contains 142 calories and 4 grams of fat. A regular recipe contains 294 calories and 14 grams of fat.
