It's being raining and cold here in Long Beach and I just want to get in the kitchen and make some soup with whatever is in the fridge. I think I'll start with a serrano chili that way I'll get my husband's attention. Does anyone have any ideas for a spicy chicken soup?

I haven't tried this yet, but I intend to at some point. Oddly enough, I made soup today, too, but it wasn't spicy. http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Slow-Cooker-Chicken-Taco-Soup/Detail.aspx

Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla soup off AR is my current favorite! It is so good.

This is my current favorite: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Catherines-Spicy-Chicken-Soup/Detail.aspx I've made quite a few modifications, but it's a great base to start with on a spicy chicken soup. My husband and our friends love it.

About Me 
I am a retired RN Director of Surgical Services and I always loved to cook. After an early retirement I took a professional culinary program at the Westlake Culinary Institute and published a recipe organizer/personal cookbook called the Table One collection. I have my own website prosebooks.com where I sell the book, post recipes, write restaurant reviews and submit articles on different culinary topics.
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook just about anything but I since I am not a big sweet eater I also am not a baker or dessert maker. I find that I need....I repeat.... I need to be in the kitchen chopping something to be happy. I love soups both cold and hot and I do like to add spice to any meal.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I can honestly say I don't have a lot of family cooking traditions. What I do like to do is challenge myself and try a new recipe that I would normally be afraid to cook. That's my tradition. Try something new and different.
My cooking triumphs
There are so many. A few I can think of right now are puff pastry, a Hungarian potato bread, Beef Wellington, Vietnamese Beef Pho, and Won Ton soup.
My cooking tragedies
I had a cooking tragedy just last week. I am embarassed. I was making zabaione which is the easiest thing in the world to make and instead of using the egg yols per the recipe I completely zoned out and used the egg whites. Duh!
