Method
 

  1. In large stock or soup pot, bring the water and broth to a slow simmer over medium-high heat.
  2. Wash and peel the butternut squash. Slice length wise and then cut into 1" cubes. Add to the broth mixture and cover.
  3. Wash, peel and slice carrots into 1/2" to 1" pieces. Add to the soup pot. Continue to simmer, covered.
  4. Wash and slice the bok choy in half length-wise and then into 1/2" pieces. Add to the soup and turn the heat down to low.
  5. Add the olive oil, spices and nutritional yeast. Cook on low heat for 30 more minutes.
The Breaded Mug(s)
  1. When your soup is ready to serve, make these per recipe instructions. They'll be quick and you want them to be hot when you're ready to serve - so save them for the end.
Keto Breadsticks
  1. If you are making Keto Breadsticks - start to make these when your soup has about 15 minutes left to cook, and preheat your oven before you begin. This way, your 15-20 minute breadsticks will be warm when you're ready to serve dinner! Serve HALF the recipe, make per recipe instructions.
