An Oldways recipe and photo.
I made this soup and it came out great. The acidity of the tomato and the warmth and creaminess of the peanut butter balance each other out perfectly. I did substitute creamy peanut butter for chunky. I think the pieces of peanuts in the chunky version would have been even better, but I have to be mindful of food textures because of intestinal strictures, and the creamy version was still quite good.
Easy to make and tastes good! I’ll be making it again.
Simple ingredients, great flavor, and it’s easy to make! I can see this becoming a favorite in our recipe rotation.
