There’s nothing like a hot mug of soup on a cold day, and this Gluten-free Chicken Gumbo Soup has everything to make it healthy and delicious. Served over a mound of rice, it’s the perfect way to warm your meal and your day.
A delicious combination of tender chicken, sausage, and vegetables in an easy-to-make broth. We used a chicken sausage, but you could substitute your favorite sausage. Feel free to mix up the peppers, too. We used a combination of pequillo peppers (delicious, if you can find them) and one green pepper.
