Turmeric Chickpea Chicken Soup...

This Golden turmeric-chicken soup including chickpeas and potatoes is a special soup for cold weather! Geared with ginger, garlic, coconut milk and a touch of peanut butter. 381 calories and 33 grams of protein per serving!

 Brrrrrrrrr. It is the return of the polar vortex or the like because this climate does not vibrate with my soul. I warmly welcome you to enter the Arctic: I'm wearing Tony's great Nike jogging pants, soft socks and a shirt that does not fit.

 I warmed a big bowl of this chicken soup with warm chickpeas turmeric and it's fantastic as always, even on the third day.

 Seriously, boys, this is one of the best soups that I have enjoyed for a long time. Delicious, addictive, sweet and spicy and incredibly good for you. He did the snowflakes during the weekend. The streets were empty and I appreciated the opportunity to adjust me to the house with an excuse to know why I did not have to leave on Saturday (too much snow!).
So let's be honest: keep it new.

If you remember some previous recipes, I challenged myself to enjoy more legumes (dry beans, dry peas, chickpeas and lentils) last year. It was great to get Tony acquainted with new foods and get different sources of vegetable protein in his diet. For this soup I chose chickpeas because of its beautiful texture.
This soup has a strong taste and a bright color thanks to anti-inflammatory turmeric and ginger. Turmeric does not just mean you're fresh and millennial and adds to all your shakes, it's nice and beautiful in color. In this recipe, the most lively and tasty broth is made, mixed with ginger, coconut milk and a touch of peanut butter. The broth surrounds soft chicken, sweet potatoes and chickpeas.
Comfortable winter recipe, actually.

 I hope you enjoy this great soup. It will fill you with love, delicious scents and warmth. xo!

 IMPORTANT NOTES;
To make vegan / vegetarian: if you want to make this vegetarian recipe, simply add another box of chickpeas instead of chicken.

 If you are allergic to peanuts, you can use or use cashew nut butter instead. I would not recommend using another nuts butter.

Easy mustard-crusted fish fillets

Here are 5 tips for choosing and cooking fish that are very useful: Buy the freshest fish you can find - do not focus on salmon tonight and do not buy a piece of old salmon in the store - instead of changing the menu to buy the freshest. Clear eyes are important in a whole fish, because opaque eyes are an indication of age. Fresh tuna must be dark red, never brown. Fresh salmon smells freshly cut cucumber and no fish and the fat should be white rather than yellow. Buying clean fish in general is usually cheaper than filleting and cooking is super simple. Sprinkle the cavity with salt and pepper, fill with ground garlic and lemon, wrap in a greased aluminum foil and bake 30 to 40 minutes (see my simple recipe tilapia fried). Cooking a little more than too much fish. The finer the fish piece, the shorter the cooking time. Once the visible flesh of the fish has changed color by cooking, most fish (other than the very large tuna or salmon fillets) are ready. If y...
