I wanted to mix things up a bit tonight since we’ve gone through gumbo, chili, tortilla soup etc recently and we hadn’t made anything new in a while. I saw this recipe pop up the other day for butternut squash, kale, and farro “risotto” and decided to give it a go… it will definitely be made again. Very hearty and rich but incredibly simple to make in about an hour.

Not my picture:

3lb course ground Chuck

2lb ground chicken.

6 Guajillo

4 New Mexico Chile

2 Ancho

Tsp Chile Arbol ( my wife is from Cali and a  spice wimp)

2 Japs

2 yellow onion

.5 sweet onion 

1 head of garlic diced

1.5 oz dark chocolate 

3 tbs cumin 

1 qt beef stock plus 2 qt water 

Tonys, Texas Red Fajita seasoning each batch of browned meat to taste.

 

Brown meat in batches; sweat onions and toast garlic and cumin. Boil and blend dried chiles.

Simple.

Just Google Creamy Spicy Jalapeno Shrimp Soup. 

Did that before I asked. I didn't find one that looked like "that". 

I want the recipe that ends up looking like "that". 

Thanks in advance. Big fan of your work.

Not recipe specific but wondering if anyone uses cream cheese instead of cream\half and half for creamy soups?

Have a recipe from mindfull mom for southwest turkey soup that is very good that uses cream cheese. Also I use turkey bones for broth for the soup. I use insta pot and my “broth” turns into turkey jelly there is so much collagen in it. 
 

Not going to post link cause you losers can search mindful mom on your own. Plus I’m lazy.

I use cream cheese for thickening a cream sauce for one of my salmon recipes.  It takes quite a bit of manipulation to work the softened crean cheese into the liquid.   In afraid it would be difficult directly in a soup.  I think you would have to make a sauce mixing the cream cheese with heavy cream or half and half first and then add it to the soup.

Every now and again I have to get my JCI Frito pie fix with a side of cheese fries.   Now that I’m an old man I do this in the daylight and stone sober.

gonna give this a shot tonight. 

Not too shabby. Simple enough to prepare. I loaded a scoop of rice in the bottom and served with a crusty baguette.

I did  follow the recipe linked above pretty much as written, using two whole jalapenos (with seeds). First taste was a little flat, but adding some more salt and 8-10 healthy dashes of habanero hot sauce seemed to wake it up nicely.

Cold and windy in Amarillo today. So far we have 9.5 inches according to the weatherman. Great day for a soup or stew. Wife made chicken and dumplings, I’m full as a tic, so damn good!

Got two comfort dishes I'm planning on cooking this weekend. One is Chili, the other, since I'm trying to get back into Keto, is a cauliflower soup that hopefully will come out similar to a potato soup. After we made some homemade cauliflower mash for christmas dinner, I'm actually pretty bullish that its going to turn out well. 

So two recipes on deck, but that didn't stop be from looking at that shrimp jalapeno soup and think "hmmm."

Our favorite keto friendly soup.

Feeling blah after travel (went to the doc, have an upper respiratory infection). Wearing a mask (I’m not a dick), I hit MT Supermarket for some soup fixings to make an Asian chicken soup. Made it, it’s great, no pics.

BUT…I decided to try this stuff:

I never do canned stock, but we just got back yesterday and I’m tired. This shit is for real. Legit chicken stock. A real richness, good flavor. I’m actually going to start keeping some on hand.
