The soup is deep orange with chunks of smoked turkey and hint of green from chopped cilantro, served in jet black bowls. A dollop of tangy prawn sour cream sits enticingly on top, surrounded by vibrant diced avocados. The dish is garnished with a cilantro leaf, adding an artistic pop. A crusty keto roll on the side completes the enticing picture.

Additional

Fun fact: chipotle peppers are basically ripened jalapeños that have been smoked and dried. Their heat and distinctive smoky flavor add a terrific depth to soups. Also, if running short on time, use pre-made broth and pre-smoked turkey to save on preparation time. Kids can help by measuring ingredients and stirring the soup while it cooks.
