My b/f is sick today so I am nursing him back to health. I made him my special chicken and rice soup. He re-named it "get naked soup". He says it is so spicy that it makes you take all your clothes off. I must admit, depending on the weather, it does. I have several varieties I like to make. I have the one I made today, spanish chicken soup, or this other asian one. Both are great for colds and both can be made VERY SPICY or mildly hot.
Anyway, making the soup got me thinking of what I was going to make to break my fast. I have a couple of ideas on making a soup similar to the asian chicken soup (w/o the chix) but I am not sure. All I am sure of is the first day I'll make it bland and the second day I'll jazz it up. WOO HOO!! GET NAKED!
Last time, I went to the store and bought everything under the sun. EVERYTHING fresh and green looked soooo good. I bought Kale, yellow zuchinni, okra, greenbeans, tomatoes, celery, onions, garlic, carrots, green squash and potatoes (I also got oranges, grapefruit and pineapples but I didn't put them in the soup). I know I am missing something but I got a lot. I only used half in the soup and then juiced the other half. I was in veggie heaven. There is a recipe to break the cleanse, but I didn't use it. (I know, I'm bad. I had to be after being sooo good for 10 days straight) I was fine, no tummy aches at all.
MMMMMM. Sooouuup. I can't wait to reward myself with fresh, delicious veggies.
