This Chili Soup delivers the flavor of your favorite Chili Con Carne but in the form of a comforting soup… perfect for the rainy season!

Finally! After more than two weeks of not cooking, I’m back today with a piping hot bowl of Chili Soup. This was what was requested over the weekend by the husband paired with this Shrimp Tacos which was requested naman by the just-been-sick Ykaie. Welcome to our Saturday dinner. It was perfect because it was raining cats and dog that night.

I’m sure you noticed I’ve been a bit MIA here on the blog and in real life. That’s because we’ve been sick the past two weeks. We are okay now… Ykaie is still recovering but we’re okay.

We’ve been having a lot of Tex-Mex cravings here at home so I’ve been cooking mostly Taco dishes — soups, salads — you name it. I’m thinking maybe because it has a lot of nutritious ingredients that our bodies actually need these days.

For this Chili Soup, I used half ground beef and half Quorn Meat-free grounds to cut back on red meat. I’ve been meaning to go back on the health track because I’ve been both pleasure eating and stress eating the past months — especially last month. I gained back 25lbs of the 40lbs I lost. From 145lbs, I am now back to 170lbs. GAaaaah! My blood sugar, cholesterol, triglycerides, and all those health stuff are also starting to rise… huhuhu

So, I decided to kickstart my getting-back-to-health journey with #TPK100DaysToHealth — it’s like a 100 day starter to a healthy lifestyle.  Parang masaya lang pangalanan para naman may motivation. (*wink*)

Happy start of the week everyone!
