Just Like Mom's . . . Almost . . .

Back, way back in the day my Mom used to make some bangin' chicken soup from scratch. I've quit the cock since then and geniusly used steamed tilapia instead. {I also came up with the word geniusly} Ingredients are: freshly chopped onions, red potatoes, carrots, red peppers, corn, & tilapia of course. Perfect for a cold winter day.

Chili Con Soy Carne

Mmmhmmm, how delightful is a big bowl of chili on a cold night? It's the next best thing to a big blanket or a nice hunk of man. I hadn't cooked up a pot in years, but my friend Camilla kept mentioning how much she enjoyed it years ago. It's not too hard to do. Chop up & sweat some veggies, I used an onion, carrots, & green pepper. Add some soy ground meat, or real meat if you fancy. Then stir in some beans & tomato sauce. Serve it up with some cornbread, rice, or homemade tortilla chips from whole Foods. {They are divine!}

Sunday Soup!

Cold weather means savory, hearty foods. The inaugural soup of the season was a curry coconut lentil with homemade croutons. It's a great Sunday dish that will keep you warm for days.
