Ingredients

64 oz chicken broth
6 cloves fresh garlic (minced)
2 large leeks (washed well and thinly sliced)
4 large carrots (finely diced; See Note Below)
2 stalks celery (finely diced)
2 bay leaves (optional)
1/2 tsp thyme (dried thyme)
1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
4 chamomile tea (4 to 6 chamomile tea bags; optional)
1 cup water (just off the boil)
2 Tbs butter (mct oil, or flavorless coconut oil)
2 Tbs TH Just Gelatin
1 1/2 Tbs TH Integral Collagen (optional)
1/4 tsp sunflower lecithin (optional, but preferred)
2 Tbs apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 tsp TH Mineral Salt (1½ to 2 teaspoons TH Mineral Salt (the larger amount for savory heads; add the extra after final tasting)
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 tsp onion powder
4 cup chicken breasts (4 to 5 cups diced cooked chicken breasts; see page 45 for cooking methods)
1/2 bunch fresh parsley (stems removed and finely diced, for garnish)

Instructions

1
Put the broth, garlic, leeks, carrots, celery, bay leaves (if using), and thyme in a large soup pot. Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, add the oats, and gently simmer.
2
If using chamomile tea, brew it in the 1 cup of boiled water for a few minutes. Now assemble your Trimmy: Place the brewed tea or 1 cup boiled water into a blender. Add the core Trimmy ingredients: butter, gelatin, collagen (if using), and lecithin (if using). Add the vinegar, salt, pepper, and onion powder. Hold the lid down tightly on the blender and whip until smooth and creamy. Stir the puree back into the soup pot. Add the chicken. Taste and adjust the flavors to “own it.” Remove the bay leaves. Garnish with the parsley, and serve up hearty bowls of Irish heritage.

MAKE A FAMILY MEAL:

For the weight-loss plan, this bisque is a Light E, so you have carb room to dunk ripped-up pieces of sprouted-grain toast in your bowl, or serve a refreshing fruit salad for dessert.
Growing children or others not on the weight loss track can have a Crossover with butter on their bread.

NOTE: Parsnip lovers can use 3 medium parsnips instead of carrots. Parsnips are as sweet as yams and will make your bisque very sweet, so be prepared.
