really amazing flavor. like, big. flashy. kind of obnoxious in a good way. for example, jalapeño. and lime. unlimited, open-ended, can’t-be-stopped topping options. a little salty, a little crispy, a little cooling, calming, and fresh. a nice long simmer. windows open, candle burning, good house smells. it’s just necessary. reheat-ability, because we’re going back to work and school now and bringing our lunches like responsible adults, okay? the filling factor, as in must not be hungry within five minutes of eating it.
If you like spicy, big flavor. If you like topping options galore. If you like recipes that come together in a hot second. YOU CAME TO THE RIGHT PARTY. The soup, in a nutshell, is a kickin’ family-friendly meal (except probably not for, like, infants? unless they like jalapeños?). It is full of awesome flavors that will change up your soup routine. Chicken, white beans, and a salty/spicy kick, but with a cool and refreshing broth to simmer it all down. Honestly, I am tempted to use the term flavor explosion right now. I know, I know, we’ve all been stuck in that chicken wild rice soup rut for a good while, and while I do love that creamy goodness for its own comfort food vibes, it doesn’t have the energizing powers of this green goddess. This is the one that will clear out your leftover head colds, make your eyes do the googly-pop thing, and give you a nice booty kick rev up your fall season. One last note. In Minnesooota, or maybe I should just say in my family, we’re not really known for loving spicy food. Jalapeño = just no. But in years past, this soup has been our extended family’s own holiday miracle: they’ve tried it and they’ve liked it. And I scooped up all the leftovers with tortilla chips, and squeezed on extra lime juice please and thank you, and lived happily ever after.
