Another Sunday, another soup. Another chance to join up with Deb & Souper Sundays.
This soup was all for Matt. I think the name explains all.
I used this recipe, with a few changes. First, for the broth, I roasted the chicken beforehand, giving it a deeper & richer flavor. No cilantro, as I didn't want the soup to taste like dishwater.
I had some lime-infused rice from another dish, so substituted that for the plain or brown rice. Matt won't eat sweet potatoes, so white instead.
Skipped frying tortilla strips, to save time, and just used chips. And naturally, our avocados were in bad shape...
But he loved it. A spicy, warming, filling soup. And it made the house smell amazing.
Time to unpack your grass skirt, and gather your coconuts, because for our 42nd get-tether, it's Tiki, Two here at Blog Party!
Hope to see you there.

I've always been a soup fan, and I'm rather fond of Deb, so making a point of adding a soup to each week's menu took zero effort. Unfortunately, they're not all winners. This, sadly, doesn't even deserve a certificate for participating....
- Chile Cashew Chicken
Not much to say here. A nice little stir-fry type recipe, another Donna Hay. Ginger, onions, red pepper, chicken (or in this case, Quorn), rice noodles, chilies, cashews. Good. Time to unpack your grass skirt, and gather your coconuts, because for...
