This Thai chickpea soup is light and filling, all at the same time. Delicious too!
There’s nothing like a big bowl of warm, steaming soup when cooler weather starts to roll in.
A reader sent me this recipe link and asked if I could find a way to make it more “hearty”. While it was pretty much clean already, I thought it was an interesting flavor combination, so I gave it a try.
I wasn’t crazy about the final outcome, so I started tinkering around with it a bit. I added a few more spices and ingredients and came up with a mild, tomato-y soup that makes a wonderfully light meal while still filling you up with protein and fiber.

Fabulous!

quick question, I thought I heard that shrimp are a “dirty” food, like all shellfish,am I hearing wrong? Maybe it is just Lobster and crab?
That would be the first I’ve heard of it…
