This easy Paleo seafood soup is perfect for Lent. One of my favorite quick meal ideas for busy nights is an easy soup recipe. Soups are hot and filling and generally budget friendly. They are the perfect choice for nights when you’re short on time and can generally be made in the slow cooker fairly easily. For those that aren’t following the Paleo diet, you can serve your soup with a slice of homemade bread or fresh rolls. If you’re trying to stay away from carbs and gluten, you can serve your soup with a garden salad instead. This seafood soup recipe is very hearty and quite filling on its own. While I made my soup with white fish and shrimp, feel free to substitute whatever seafood you have on hand instead. The same is true with the vegetables, I’ve included carrots and leeks, but you could add in leftover vegetables from dinner last night if you prefer.
