- 1 cup Gluten-Free Gnocchi

Instructions
- Prep Your Ingredients: Dice your onions, carrots, celery, and garlic. If you make your chicken at home, I also recommend doing this beforehand. I used an already-cooked rotisserie chicken from my local market for this recipe.
- Cook Down Your Vegetables: Add your extra virgin olive oil to a cast iron pot over medium heat, then add in your onions, celery, carrots, and garlic. Let them brown for about five minutes, stirring them periodically.
- Add Your Spices: Once your vegetables are browned, add salt, pepper, Italian Seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir to coat the vegetables in the spices.
- Add in Your Chicken Broth and Chicken: Add in your chicken broth and shredded chicken and stir your soup to combine everything. This is optional, but toss it in a sprig of fresh thyme. Cover your soup and let simmer for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, taste your broth and add additional seasonings if necessary.
- Add in Your Gnocchi, Cream, and Leafy Greens: Lastly, while your soup is still simmering, add the coconut cream, gnocchi, and leafy greens. Stir that and let it simmer for another 5 minutes (or however long your gnocchi package recommends).
- Serve Your Soup: Give your soup a final taste for additional seasonings, and then remove it from the heat, plate, and serve.
