The Little Beet’s Chef’s Soup Bowl + My Adaptation

It was such a hearty and filling soup and the flavor combination of the chicken, chimichurri sauce and butternut squash worked so well together that I decided to recreate using Trader Joe’s Butternut Squash Soup as the base and I added cooked chicken, spicy jollof rice and chimichurri, which resulted in an amazing easy weekday lunch/dinner side dish.

I decided to try to recreate the dish using Trader Joe’s Kung Pao Tempura Cauliflower and Trader Joe’s General Tso’s sauce. The result was a quick and easy gourmet quality meal that I’ll definitely be making on repeat.
