This is such a simple, satisfying, comforting and healthy soup recipe that works well as a side or main dish. If the broth and pot-stickers are already prepared then the soup ultimately comes together quickly for busy weeknight dinners.
My obsession with vegetable soups continue. This broccoli soup has a creamy texture and a rich flavor but it might surprise you that no cream or even half and half is needed. Overall, it’s a hearty, healthy and easy weeknight choice.
I have had the opportunity to partner with Ragú to cook up some Italian dishes. As part of the “New Tra-Dish” project I was asked to select two of the Ragú Authentic Italian Recipes and create my own spin on them. First up, enjoy skillet chicken cacciatore as a hearty, comforting Italian chicken & vegetable soup.
Maybe I’ve gone a little overboard this season, making all sorts of vegetable soups. But they have become a staple in my family’s kitchen. Soups such as this asparagus soup are quick and provide a healthy side or main dish.
From my family to yours, wishing you health, happiness and many delicious moments in 2014. Happy New Year!!
At its base, this soup is simply a vegetable {mushroom} soup with the sautéed and softened veggie mix pureed until smooth. It’s cream of mushroom soup without the full cream.
The first time I made this soup we had an array of summer veggies in the refrigerator (zucchini, yellow squash, tomatoes, spinach and mushrooms) that needed to be used up. I started adding ingredients to the slow-cooker and this crock-pot minestrone was born.
I love the flavor and texture combination of lentils and squash so I combined the two healthy ingredients in this hearty vegetarian stew.
Growing up on the Olympic Peninsula, we routinely took the ferry across the Puget Sound to Seattle… and to just about anywhere else. When I think of clam chowder I think of those countless ferry rides we took back and forth, and the famous Ivar’s chowder {always with oyster crackers} served aboard the ferries, and throughout Seattle and the greater Puget Sound area.
Bell peppers would make a colorful and flavorful bowl for any type of soup, however, I thought they found the perfect match with tortilla soup. This crockpot version of my tortilla soup (with or without the pepper bowls) is simple and easy for busy weekday nights.
