Moroccan Couscous Soup
I made up this recipe for Moroccan Couscous Soup after seeing a couple of different recipes that used couscous as the base for a soup flavoured with harissa. Basically I emptied the fridge and pantry of all the things that needed to be used up and tossed them in the soup. You can follow this [...]
Bubble and Squeak Soup with Aged Cheddar
Happy Pancake Day! I have been dreaming of lemon and sugar pancakes all day and can’t wait to make them tonight. I’m still debating about whether to make enough pancakes so they can become dinner, or half the recipe and just make a small batch for myself as dessert. Pancake Day reminds me of the [...]
Indian Spiced Carrot Soup with Ginger
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a great holiday and 2010 is treating you well so far. We had an incredible time back in Texas and an even better time in Mexico where we swam, snorkeled, and sunned ourselves to our hearts’ content every day. The only downside to our adventures is returning home [...]
Roasted Vegetable Soup with White Beans and Spinach
Ever since we came back from Tucson, I feel like my diet has largely consisted of Asian food and beer. I’m addicted to this new Sichuan restaurant, Yun Nan Garden in Asiaville (Carlo’s term for Vegas’ China Town), and I dream about their spicy and tongue numbing food ALL the time. When we weren’t eating [...]
Turkey Leftovers: Turkey Stock
I hope that every one’s Thanksgiving preparations are going well and the turkey is defrosting or already in a brine for the big day! After the Thanksgiving meal tomorrow, one usually ends up with a lot of leftovers, especially loads of turkey meat. As much as I love turkey, cranberry, and stuffing sandwiches the day [...]
Mexican Pumpkin Soup
I just “celebrated” my 8th month anniversary of being unemployed. While I knew that it was going to be hard to find a job, I had no idea that it would be as exhausting as what it has turned out to be. Thankfully, cooking–and by default this blog–has become my unemployment therapy. I’ve always enjoyed [...]
Winter Minestrone
There is nothing better than cooking up a huge vat of soup over the weekend and having an arsenal of lunches in the fridge so you barely have to cook during the week. This Winter Minestrone is packed full of vegetables, but isn’t some sissy soup. Instead it has nuggets of carrots, lots of greens, [...]
Chickpea Stew with Chorizo and Meatballs
It has been a long week since we last posted with the website getting hacked and my computer getting a nasty handful of viruses that had Carlo pulling out what is left of his hair. Plus we had some friends in town, which meant we ate out and drank a lot this past weekend. So [...]
Moroccan Spiced Chickpea and Lentil Soup
One of the most interesting things that has happened while I’ve been working on Recession Recipes is connecting with old friends and new friends who are as obsessed with food as I am. I love getting emails from them telling me what they are currently enjoying to eat or getting family recipes. A very old [...]
Soupe Au Pistou
Carlo and I got hooked on soup for lunch when we lived in Austin and we would order from the Soup Peddler each week. He would deliver vacuum sealed packs of all kinds of soup to our house that were the perfect serving size for lunch for 2 people. Most times we would place the [...]
