Tips for increasing protein
Bone Broth: Use bone broth as the base for the soup, which provides a good amount of protein and collagen.
Chicken Quantity: Increase the amount of chicken in the soup.
High-Protein Noodles: Consider using chickpea or lentil-based pasta instead of traditional egg noodles.
Eggs: Adding beaten or poached eggs during the last few minutes of cooking will boost the protein content and add to the richness of the soup.
Beans/Legumes: Incorporating pulses and beans like chickpeas, cannellini beans, or lentils can significantly increase the protein and fiber content of the soup.
Dairy (optional): A dollop of Greek yogurt can add a creamy texture and extra protein to your soup.
Nuts/Seeds: Toasted nuts or seeds (like almonds, pumpkin seeds, or cashews) sprinkled on top provide a boost of protein.
