Is there anything more comforting than a hot bowl of soup on a cold day? This caldo tlalpeño made with vegetables, chicken, chickpeas, and herbs is super flavorful, high in protein, fiber, and vitamins. It’s a crowd-pleaser, and a soup everyone will love!

A healthy homemade caldo tlalpeño

Caldo tlalpeño is a Mexican chicken and veggie soup, made with vegetables, chickpeas, and chicken. There is nothing like a healing soup for colder months that leaves you feeling good. Here is what I especially love about this cozy soup:

  • This soup is super healthy as it is filled with veggies, protein, vitamins, AND it’s gluten free.
  • This recipe is perfect for meal prep as it can be stored in the fridge for five days.
  • The combination of the veggies and the chipotle makes for the ultimate flavorful soup! 

How to make caldo tlalpeño

Step 1:

Heat some oil in a medium pan and sauté the chopped chicken. When ready, remove and set aside. On the same pan, sauté the red pepper, onions, and garlic. Stir frequently to avoid from burning. After 5-6 minutes, add the quartered tomatoes. Stir until you get a sauce-like consistency. Then, add all the sautéed veggies to a blender and blend.

Step 2:

In a medium pot, add your blended veggies and add 4 cups of water or chicken broth. Stir in chipotle sauce, salt, and pepper. Once it starts to boil, add the chopped green beans, carrots, and the sautéed chicken. Cook for 15-20 minutes. Then, add the chickpeas.

Step 3:

Serve with chopped cilantro, feta cheese, and avocado.

What to serve this soup with?

I love serving this with only the toppings, but you could definitely serve this soup with some rice or quinoa.

I’m back!!! - after some months finishing my masters program, starting a new job, and moving twice… and finally I’m back!!! This makes me very happy! Cooking makes me feel very much at home and I had missed it.. a lot! So a big thank YOU for being here 🙆🏼‍♀️😁

As most of you know, black beans are one of my favourite foods. So it was just natural to make these black bean brownies. They are incredibly moist, soft, and fudgy and have become one of my favourites. I’ve tried them several times and I’ve finally found the perfect ingredient ratio. Don’t worry they don’t taste like black beans!

These are gluten free, low in sugar, and high in protein and fiber. Can’t wait for you to try them!
