Spicy Red Curry Coconut Chicken Soup



Why is this a Foodgasm?

This is my own version of Tom Kha Gai, a Thai soup. I love Thai food, so I made my own spicy coconut curry soup! This is sour, sweet and spicy all in one! You got the creamy from the coconut, the spicy from the curry and a little sour in the end with the juice of 1 lime! This is redicu-licious!

The reason I made this- my husband had a cold. So I thought chicken soup, but why not this spicy Thai chicken soup?! This cleared out his sinuses! It was as if his nose were a faucet. The next day he felt sooo good he decided to insulate the basement! A win-win!

Thai Red Curry Paste



Why is this a Foodgasm?

Well the Red Curry Paste itself is not a foodgasm.....what you can make with it is. I have made my Red Curry with Chicken and Mango, Red Curry Coconut Chicken Soup and recently made Red Curry Meatloaves (recipe coming soon on both!) Plus it is easy to make, the only hard part is finding the ingredients! Luckily there is an Asian grocery store near me. If there is not one near you I know you can find it easily online!

Hey you don't forget about my giveaway for a set of 26 spices starts on March 29th! With spices like this from Cooking Planit you will have no trouble making this Red Curry Paste!

Red Curry with Chicken and Mango



Why is this a Foodgasm?

Mango Strikes again my friends! It is just so magical: a lovely blend of citrus and melon. It makes me think of sunshine....how I miss thee. Anyways, back to he matter at hand: this dish. I love red curry, I actually made my very own red curry paste for this (recipe coming soon). I absolutely LOVE Thai food, the blend of sweet and spicy just makes me giddy (ie- Pineapple Mango Chili)! So I wanted to make my own, just as good as authentic, Thai dish! This is creamy sweet and a bit spicy. It is like a warm hug from a seXXXy man!  We also got you covered in the veggie dept., you are getting a COMPLETE meal! protein, veggies and serve it with a blend of brown and black rice and that's a wrap!

Sweet and Spicy Pineapple Mango Chili



Why is this a Foodgasm?

This features one of my favorite flavor combos EVER, Sweet and Spicy! Sugar and Spice and something nice! It is like ohhhhh yummmmm.....ohhhh WOW! You get the sweet and then BAM I hit ya when you didn't expect you with the spice hammer! This baby is pretty darn spicy too! I would let this slow cook to mellow out the spice or add less dried red chilis than I did, LOL!

I got the idea while talking to my friend about chili. Mike makes a mean chili: sweet and spicy. But the man will not give up the ingredients...he keeps his recipes secrets. Me, well I got this blog and give 'em all away for free! So while talking to him I thought sweet and spicy and remembered the pineapple salsa made my Newman's Own I like so much and then it hit me....WHAMMO! Pineapple Chili- and why not add Mango because I love thee!
