This Creamy African Peanut Soup is really rich, warmly flavored – it tastes like… nothing else on earth!. Peanutty, curry-y, deliciousness!
Soup for me is the greatest comfort in the world. A bowl of soup is my go-to for lunches, or dinners when it’s just me. I just love how filling it is, and how quickly I can eat it! I’m a busy person, sometimes – lunch just isn’t going to be a 1 hour period of time. Slurping some yummy soup fills my belly, feeds my soul, and keeps the “hangries” away.
I’d never HEARD of African Peanut Soup, but when you have all the ingredients, and you’re game to try something new… it’s ON. This is a very old Weight Watchers recipe I had laying about to try, and I’m so glad I finally got around to making this!! Vegetarians and Vegans will love this one, as WELL as carnivores like my family.
