Paleo Chicken Artichoke Soup with Basil
A few years ago I tried an artichoke for the very first time. From the moment it hit my lips I was addicted! I think I could have eaten an artichoke every day except for the fact that fresh artichokes are quite time consuming to make…and eat! That’s not really a great combination when you have small kids. Thankfully, I found a recipe recently that calls for frozen artichokes. Frozen artichokes! Brilliant. I grabbed that recipe, Paleo-fied it a bit, and ate every last drop. Here’s to you doing the same!
