Sunday Soup #1: Buffalo Chicken Soup

This recipe came from: http://doughmesstic.com/2015/02/05/buffalo-chicken-souplow-carb/

My Variations from Recipe as Written: I doubled the recipe. I added two raw jalapeno peppers (with the insides scooped out). I garnished with pork rinds instead of tortilla chips to keep it as low carb as possible.

General Thoughts: It was tasty... It was creamy, hearty, filling, and very flavorful. I used all the suggested garnishes (including a dollop of blue cheese dressing) in my bowl, and it really kicked up the flavor profile for me. Both Hunter and I thought it could have been a little spicier, so maybe I won't seed the jalapenos next time, and I could use the hot wing sauce instead of normal wing sauce. Also, some lime wedges to squeeze as a garnish could have been yummy too.

Polling the Fam: I really liked it and would look forward to it any time it showed up on my menu. Hunter really enjoyed it too and said he'd definitely go for it again. Becky said she'd eat it if it was made again, but she wasn't wild about it (because the wing sauce taste was too much).

Verdict: Liked it. (4 stars)
