This Beef and Mushroom Pho is just what the doctor ordered: warming, hearty, flavorful and mild at the same time. This is a cheater pho in some ways but not in others. I just want to get that out there. And because of that I am not going to give you a formal recipe, but…
Chicken & Wild Rice Soup with Potatoes and Mushrooms; Review of Soup Night
Warming and hearty Chicken & Wild Rice Soup with Potatoes and Mushrooms is the perfect antidote to a chilly (or frigid!) fall day. A copy of Soup Night was provided to me in exchange for an honest review. Affiliate links are used in this post to link to items I am discussing. Is it just…
Drunken Bean Soup with Bacon for the Slow Cooker
I know we’ve all got spring fever; being cooped up in our homes watching snowfall after snowfall through the windows is making us all a little crazy. So do I wish I had something really spring-y to share with you? Of course. But alas, it has been nothing but cold here and soup is still…
Ash-e Anar (Persian Pomegranate Soup with Meatballs)
I almost forgot to share this recipe with you guys, which would have been a crime! It is that good! But boy it has been a weird month. The cruise was enough alone to make everything topsy turvy–I would love to say that we always get out of town in the winter but actually that…

Mexican Inspired Chicken Soup with Corn and Heirloom Beans
A brothy chicken soup boosted with Mexican spices and lime juice is the best cure for a cold I have come across! Sorry about the extended absence!! I mentioned in my last post that I had run out of savory meals to share because I had given in to popular demand (i.e., my kids)…
Chorba (Moroccan Soup of Chickpeas, Vermicelli and Vegetables)
When I chose my island for my kitchen, my builder thought I was crazy for picking such a large one. Clearly he is not a cook, because there is just no such thing as too much counter space in the kitchen. I am a cluttered person, and being able to always have counter free for…
Fallback Doctored Tortilla Soup
Ack! Sorry for the delay! I managed to be a good blogger through the first week of vacation, but the second week things just got away from me. Meals got made but pictures were not taken. Honestly I did not even turn my computer on the entire second week (!!).
Thai Inspired Beef Noodle Soup
Guys, the doctors think I have a C. Difficile infection. That is all I am going to say, because, well, this is a food blog after all. And you don’t wanna hear about it any more than I want to think about it (although if you are wondering why, it is probably from being on…
