From: Paleo Beginner's Guide PDF
Just like the "real" thing but better for you, this comforting soup will warm your
body and soul.
Serves: 4
1 Small Spaghetti Squash (About 1 lb)
4 cups no salt added chicken broth
2 carrots, slim, very thinly sliced
2 cups chopped cooked chicken, (leftovers or rotisserie)
3 cups packed chopped kale, spinach or Swiss chard leaves
1. Prick the squash all over with a small sharp knife. Place the squash on a paper towel in a microwave oven. Cook on high for 4 minutes.
2. Turn the squash over and continue to cook it until the squash gives when pressed gently, 4 to 5 minutes longer.
3. Allow the squash to cool for 5 minutes. While the squash is still hot, cut off and discard the stem.
4. Carefully halve the squash lengthwise (it will emit steam) and discard the seeds. Working over a bowl, scrape out the squash flesh with a fork, loosening and separating the strands.
5. Combine the broth and carrots in a large saucepan, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
6. Stir in the chicken and kale and simmer for 5 minutes.
7. Stir in 2 cups of the squash strands, reserving the remaining strands for another use.
8. Serve the soup hot.
