The Recipe – Simple yet Nutritious
Ingredients:
- 2 to 3 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
- – 2 Carrots (chopped)
- – 2 Celery Sticks (chopped)
- – 1 Sweet Potato (peeled and diced)
- – ½ Cup Frozen Peas
- – 1 Cup Vondi’s Bone Broth

Directions
- 1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat and cook the chicken breasts thoroughly. Once cooked, remove the chicken and set it aside.

- 5. Add the shredded chicken back into the pot and give it a good stir.
- 6. Let the soup simmer for an additional 5 minutes to let the flavours combine even further.
- 7. Once done, remove the pot from the heat and let the soup cool before serving it to your furry friend.
