Keto Chicken Florentine Soup is an ideal and cozy soup for winter. You may serve this as a meal as it is satisfying and you feel full for the whole day. The soup only uses a few basic items to get ready in half an hour. There is no need to freeze the soup as if you have pulled chicken & all other items available in your kitchen then the cooking time for this soup is too little. The Florentine is a culinary term & we give this term to every meal that has spinach and cream together. That is why this soup has the name “Keto Chicken Florentine Soup”. If we add hearts of artichoke then it closely resembles our spinach artichoke dip. You have the option to switch the dairy cream with full-fat coconut milk. This makes our recipe suitable for people following a dairy-free, whole 30, or paleo diet.
