This recipe is definitely one of my husband’s favorites. It is spicy, though - so all of those who like your food mild, I’d skip out on this one. We love spicy food at our house, so it’s always a mega hit! This recipe is actually for a full meal; the recipe for Chipotel Smashed [...]

10 eggs
2 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup melted butter
2 tsp cinnamon

Regardless, after you make this, you’ll be in love with this soup! It’s a hearty, filling soup and will definitely warm you up on [...]
