This Poached Salmon Soup is oh so delicious, healthy, gluten-free and easy and quick to serve. This is such an unbelievably delicious soup, that I have served it at a dinner party.  Everyone who has ever tried it raves about how surprisingly lovely they find the soup.

Healthy Salmon Soup loaded with Superfoods
I have been making this recipe for more years than I can remember.  It is one of my husband’s favorites.  I have even served it at a sit-down dinner party.  The funny thing when you tell people the name Poached Salmon Soup, their faces go through this transformation showing their thoughts trying to decide if it sounds delicious or gross.  Then when I tell them there is spinach in it, the look settles into “its gross”.
Of course they try it, but usually, because they are afraid to hurt my feelings and in my head I start to hear the lyrics from Rappers Delight
“have you ever went to a friends house to eat and the food just ain’t no good,
said a hip hop the hippie the hippie
to the hip hip hop, you don’t stop
the rock it to the bang bang boogie say up jumped the boogie
to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat “
Of course, as the song is playing in my head I start jerkin’ and jivin’ while they are trying to decide. Then they are worried and a little afraid, since there is no music playing, only in my head, so they eat it out of obligation and fear… oh well, it’s a good song you get me?  Right?
So they try the soup and then you know they love it, or I wouldn’t be sharing it here.  So I will stop rambling! Try the soup already, it’s healthy, it’s delicious, its gluten free, its paleo, it’s dairy free what more could you want.

    This was just AMAZING! Now my favorite way to prepare salmon. I used chicken broth when I found no vegetable broth in my cupboard. I also used a small yellow onion. Followed the recipe otherwise. Thank you so much for posting.

    I’m going to try this recipe but you do your readers a disservice by stating such a small amount of time for the prep. It took me 10 minutes to take everything out of the refrigerator and packaging. To wash and dice a fennel bulb alone will take 10 minutes.

      Kathy I only state the time that it takes me to prep a recipe. I am not sure why it would take you 10 minutes to remove items from the refrigerator.

    I love the idea of the spinach in the soup, mentioned in the directions, but there is no spinach listed in the ingredients! How much did you use or would you recommend? Thanks!

    There is no spinach listed in the ingredient list. How much spinach are you supposed to use?
