Keto Queso Chicken Soup
Jay-Z and Beyonce… Peanut Butter and Jelly… Fred and George Weasley… and let’s add one more to the list of dynamic duo’s…chicken and queso. Why stop there though, summer is finally starting to cool off and give way to fall, so how about cool weather and soup? That’s right up there with Luke and Leia or Mary Kate and Ashley as far as duo’s go.
I love making meals in my Dutch Oven, maybe it’s just personal preference, but meals made is a dutch oven just taste better. I talked about some of my reasons for cooking in cast iron a while back in my Keto Chicken Soup post, below is an excerpt from that post:
One of the many reasons I enjoy cooking with cast iron are the nutritional benefits. I know you don’t take a bite out of the pan itself but just cooking a meal in a cast iron skillet actually fortifies your food with iron, and the longer you have your cast iron cookware and the more meals you cook in it the more effective it becomes at supplementing your iron intake. Most guys don’t have iron issues, but I had to stop donating blood a few years ago because my levels dropped so low. I was tired all the time and it took a toll on my day to day life, so if your iron levels are low cast iron may be exactly what you need.
