Recipe for Chicken Soup with Farro, Kale, and Turmeric

This tummy-warming chicken soup has farro, kale, and turmeric to brighten the flavors.

I love chicken soup, but without enough spices to bring out flavor it can sometimes be a bit ho-hum, which is why I used generous amounts of dried thyme, dried sage, and ground turmeric in this Chicken Soup with Farro, Kale, and Turmeric.  If you're not familiar with turmeric, it's the spice that gives curry powder the bright yellow color and it goes well with many savory flavors.  Farro is an ingredient I fell in love with a few years ago, but you could substitute barley, or even brown rice for a gluten-free version.  This is a relatively quick soup that would be easy to make when you get home from work, especially if you have some leftover cooked chicken, and if you're lucky you'll have enough to take for your lunch the next day!
