Welp, I’m back on track since my stomach flu hit on Monday afternoon. The stomach flu is the absolute worst. It hits you like a bus, you can’t keep anything inside your body, you have body aches, a high temperature, then chills. It’s a real party. At least it’s over in 36 hours. The problem is now I can’t seem to stomach savory food after eating salmon and salad right before the stomach flu hit. So all I want is gluten free granola or sheep’s milk yogurt or gluten free bread with almond butter and jam because it’s all I can stomach without gagging. It’s all quite lovely.
I even had a huge bowl of this soup left in the fridge and had to throw it out because it was grossing me out. What a shame.
Speaking of this recipe, this one is totally inspired by The Pioneer Woman! I absolutely love that woman. She’s just adorable. And I love watching her show on the Food Network. And the other day, she was making quick and easy meals and she made this soup! I had never heard of it before but was intrigued as soon as she said curry. I’m down for anything curry related, whether it’s Thai or Indian. And when she made it in 16 minutes, I knew I had to try it myself. But I put my own little spin on it. So thank you for the inspiration, Ree Drummond. And thanks for being the cutest human on television.
OMG you guys…we have a hot tub!! I’m so pumped!! I’ve only been in it once since I got sick right after it was finally warm, but that one dip was magical. Especially since it’s 1 degree outside right now. One. What’s even the point of that temperature? It’s pointless. I always forget how gross Colorado can be at times since it’s so wonderful most of the time. But luckily, this winter can’t get me down because my new hobby is hot tubbing. What am I gonna do on football Sundays? My new hobby, duh. Brunch, work, hot tub, nap. Sundays are finally perfect because of this new hot tub. And my marriage is even better because of it! Winning!

I first heard about this recipe on the podcast and decided it would be nice to throw something a little different into my meal plan. Holy shit, IT’S THE TITS. I was so nervous about combining ingredients I usually wouldn’t (I.e. curry with apples) but it’s so delicious! Thank you for the simple and totally satisfying recipe! Definitely on my “make this again” list.
yay!! so glad you liked it!!
I’m doing another round of Whole30 with some friends and stumbled across this delight dish. I’m wondering how off the flavor would be if the honey was nixed. Any thoughts?
the flavor will be a little different but i think it’s great without the honey, as well!
This was absolutely delicious Juli! Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
glad you liked it alayne!
Made this last night with leftover rotisserie chicken, didn’t have a green apple or cilantro, and it was STILL DELISH! Can’t wait to have it today for lunch! Thanks for sharing these great recipes AND the workouts!
awesome!! so glad it was still tasty!!
This sounds Perfect! I had Mulligatawny Soup for the first time years ago at a deli in NYC – I’ve never forgotten the mind-blowing deliciousness! We have all ingredients on hand and will make this tomorrow. If I make a large batch, can the leftovers be frozen and reheated successfully?
Juli! We made this the other night and it was so goooooooooood. I then went to a friends and we made it together — she then made it again yesterday. I had it for lunch the next day and added diced sweet potato. One of my favorites now for sure. Just killing it, girl! So happy for you, hope all is well. 🙂
yay!! glad you liked it, Lindsey!
Made this a couple nights ago! And it has been devoured. I had to hide the last serving under the vegetables!!
I found this recipe while searching for paleo chicken recipes and let me tell you I am SO glad I found it! We love this soup! There was a point there when I was craving it I love it so much! Gonna make this again tonight. It’ll probably be about the 5th time I’ve made it in 3 months. This one’s becoming a staple around here. And I’ll add that to make this candida-friendly omit the carrot and honey.
so glad you liked it!
Ditto Rachael.
IMO this recipe is perfect. Simple. Delicious. Best version of this soup I’ve had. Wife loved it. Perfect after a 6mi hike with the pup. Thanks JB.
