No Spending Today: 16/20
So, Almost Frugal asked me to share a recipe & link to her great new recipe site. It was very hard deciding which recipe to share, but in the end I decided on one that is perfect for end of the summer evenings!
Aztec Soup
- Heat 4 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan on medium heat, add 2 chopped onions and a tsp of pepper!
- Cook for 5-10 minutes, long enough for the onions to be soft, but not burnt or crisp!
- Add 2 cloves of chopped garlic and 1 teaspoon of chopped chili
- Add 1 litre of light chicken stock or vegetable stock for the vegetarians
- Add 1 large chilled not frozen chicken breast which has been chopped into pieces (when I became a vegetarian I started omitting the chicken and adding turnip instead)
- Cook for 5 – 10 minutes until chicken is fully cooked
- Add juice of 1/2 lime into soup
- In a separate bowl mix the following: 4 large spring onions chopped into small pieces, 1 avocado peeled and stone cut into tiny pieces, approx 6 cherry tomatoes cut into 4, juice of 1/2 lime, 1 tsp black pepper, 1-2 tablespoons chopped coriander
- Put the hot soup into bowls and drop a heaped tablespoon of the fresh lime avocado salsa
- Serves 4
Serve with Rocket, Beetroot & Feta salad and cheesy scones! Let me know if you want the cheesy scone recipe, they are very yummy!
Oh delicious, I really admire you for your healthy and yummy eating! Have a great weekend!

It looks delicious! Thanks for contributing! (And if you want to sign up again with the scone recipe, you are *more* than welcome!)
Sounds yum!
The soups sound gorgeous. I’ve put in on my list of ‘recipes to try’. I like to try at least one new recipe a week but the ‘to try’ list is getting so long that I think I’m going to have to up that to two a week.
