Comforting Soups

by Pam on January 19, 2014

I have been on the couch for the last couple of days due to feeling terrible. I have no energy and a horrible headache that won’t go away. Needless to say, I have no desire to cook and have not made a single recipe all weekend long. I hope to be back to cooking tomorrow, but until then, here are some of my favorite comforting soups.

Spinach and Turkey Italian Sausage Soup with Veggies and Orzo[1]

 

Taco Soup[2]

 

Chicken and Basil Dumplings[3]

 

Cheese and Potato Soup[4]

 

Roasted Tomato Soup with Poblanos, Oregano, & Cotija Cheeseaka Sopa de Jitomate y Rajas[5][6]

 

Southwestern Cream of Chicken Soup[7]

 

Roasted Garlic and Tomato Soup with Fresh Basil[8]

 

Hungarian Mushroom Soup[9]

 

Pasta e Fagioli[10]

    Sorry you are feeling poorly Pam and hope it goes away soon. You have provided a fine looking list of soups and I’m off to look at the details. By coming to Florida, we have missed a big part of soup season.

Celebrating National Peach Melba Day!

According to both reliable sources and food bloggers, Monday, January 13th, is National Peach Melba Day. My first thought was this would make a great excuse to repost our version; but then I had another more disturbing thought…why was a recipe featuring the quintessential  summer fruit being celebrated in the middle of winter? Any ideas?

Anyway, I’ve worked at more than one establishment that served this using canned peaches, so don’t let that peaches aren’t in season thing stop you from enjoying this oddly-timed food holiday. Click here to read the original post and see the full recipe. Enjoy!
