What frightful weather reports! From the upper midwest to New England, mother nature (don't you just love that politically correct nickname for the creator of the universe?) packed a wallop over the weekend. Twenty inches of snow and more on the way.
While the winds were plenty impressive and the temps dipped way low, we escaped a huge snowfall. But it's real wintry and we've got soup! Out comes the soup pot and bread machine. Easy and piping hot on a frigid December afternoon!
I made vegetable-beef soup (in which I nearly forgot the tomatoes and absolutely did forget the potato because I avoid recipes) and sunflower seed bread.
What do you make for dinner when the winter winds blow?
And I took a pic of my soup but there's a failure to communicate between camera and computer!

It's the best.
buahahahahahahahaha
Chicken and Dumplins, Chicken Noodle Soup or a nice Roast with Roasted Potatos. Always, always freshly made bread in this house and no bread machine...
ooops, got lazy a few years ago w/ the bread machine! I know it's not as good, but do use it alot, including dough for homemade pizza.
Pizza Soup (modified from a Rachel Ray recipe)
1 onion, chopped
1 clove garlic
1 lb italian sausage, links cut into meatball sized bites or bulk
3 carrots, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 jar pizza sauce
1 can chicken broth
mozzarella cheese
Swirl EVOO in pot. Add garlic and onion, stir until translucent. Add sausage and brown.
Add carrots and celery. I "pan roast" them for a few minutes for richer flavor, but you don't have to. Add pizza sauce and broth. Simmer 20 minutes with lid on the pot. Take lid off for last five minutes to thicken soup as desired.
Serve in bowls with shredded mozzarella on top.
OH YUM!
Is that better than google soup? :)
