I’ve never heard of peanut butter soup but thought it sounded worth a try. I made a half batch as I was not sure what it would be like. I was pleasantly surprised and my hubby really liked it. Next time I’ll make a full batch.

My mother used to make peanut butter soup for me when I was a child. This recipe tastes just like it but it wasn’t as rich. Very creamy but could use a bit more peanut butter and a dash of hot sauce. The kids loved it and it’s a good way to hide the vegetables. Very healthy!

Good, but a little too thick — needs more stock added at the end. Also, it seemed a tad bland still, so I added more cayenne and parsley flakes. Could also probably use more peanut butter than tahini. Otherwise, beautiful taste!
