Source: Recipe as I learned from a Mallorquin housewife years ago.
Here's one of my favourite Spanish dishes - Although I have been making it for years the way a Spanish cook once showed me, this time I followed the preparation seen on a Spanish Cooking TV channel. Their ingredients included a small piece of or pork fat and a stewing chorizo (chorizo para guisar). If choosing a chorizo for this dish, be sure it is the right type which has the red pimiento colour. The small piece of tocino can be seen just to the right of the sprig of rosemary.
350 grams (1 1/2 cups) of small dark lentils - put them to soak the night before in water to cover - (unless you have the quick-cooking type of lentils.)
100 grams (3.5 oz) red stewing chorizo sausage - lightly pricked over with tines of a fork
50 grams (1.7 oz) salted tocino pork fat - cut into large diced pieces
1 TBSP flour
2 carrots diced fine
2 medium leeks, using only white stems sliced finely in rounds
1 lg clove garlic (this was optional but I wouldn't leave it out) - pass through garlic press
2 cups beef broth (I used 2 Knorr cubes)
1 bay leaf
fresh rosemary - small sprig
olive oil - about 1/4 cup
2 cups extra water to add after 1st hour
1. Soak lentils the NIGHT BEFORE in water to cover.
2. Next day drain and rinse lentils, put aside.
3. Heat olive oil in heavy cooking pot. When sizzling, add carrots, garlic and leeks. Lightly brown while stirring.
4. Add 1 TBSP flour and keep stirring for about a minute.
5. Add lentils, beef broth, whole chorizo, tocino, laurel and rosemary
6. Put on lid and simmer very gently for 1 1/2 - 2 hours. Check after 1st hour and add up to 2 more cups water as needed.
7. Adjust seasoning and serve.
Next day you can make any left over into ...
I put the rest of the lentil soup from the day before into my food processor and added the following:
1 1/2 cups of chicken broth (using Knorr cube and water)
2 lg cloves of garlic crushed and browned in 1/4 cup oil in small frypan
2 slices brown bread broken in small pieces and fried in the garlicky oil until brown
Process the above until smooth and then heat it gently.
Dice some more pieces of brown bread and toast them in the frying pan with oil and garlic salt for the croutons.
It's really good!

Mini Meatball Soup/Italian Wedding Soup
Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan in a slow stream
2 carrots, peeled and chopped
2 ribs celery, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
2 bay leaves, fresh or dried
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound ground beef, pork and veal combined
1 egg, beaten
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano or Romano, a couple of handfuls
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs, a couple of handfuls
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated or ground nutmeg
6 cups chicken stock or broth
2 cups water
1 1/2 cups dried pasta, rings, broken fettuccini or ditalini
1 pound triple washed fresh spinach, coarsely chopped
In a deep pot over medium heat add oil, chopped carrots, celery and onions and bay leaves. Season with salt and pepper. Cover pot and cook veggies 5 or 6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While the veggies cook, combine meat, egg, garlic, grated cheese, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, nutmeg. Uncover your soup pot and add broth and water to the pot. Increase heat to high and bring soup to a boil.
When soup boils, reduce heat a bit and start to roll meat mixture into small balls, dropping them straight into the pot. You are making meat dumplings that will cook in the broth. When you are done rolling the meat, add pasta to the soup and stir. Cover and simmer soup 10 minutes.
When pasta is tender, stir in chopped spinach in batches. When spinach has wilted into the soup, the soup is done and ready to serve. Adjust your seasonings. Serve soup with crusty bread
Serves: 6-8 (2 quarts)

Here is another recipe that is pretty good, and it is "tried and true" from an old neighbor.
1-1/2 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 c. chopped onion
1 to 2 garlic cloves, minced
3 T. butter
2 chicken bouillon cubes (I use Better than Bouillon brand)
1 c. hot water
1 tsp. ground cumin
2 c. half-and-half cream
2 c. (8 oz.) shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese (I use Cheddar)
1 can (16 oz.) cream-style corn
1 can (16 oz.) regular corn
1 can (4 oz.) chopped green chilies, undrained
1 tsp. hot pepper sauce (I use more)
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
Fresh cilantro or parsley, optional
Cut chicken into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a Dutch oven, brown chicken, onion and garlic in butter until chicken is no longer pink.
Dissolve the bouillon in hot water. Add to pan along with cumin; bring to a boil.
Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 5 minutes.
Add next 5 ingredients. Cook and stir over low heat until cheese is melted. Stir in tomato.
Serve immediately; garnish with cilantro or parsley if desired.
I'm making a batch of this tomorrow:
SOUPE AU PISTOU makes 4 ½ quarts
½ lb. dried white kidney beans
¼ cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 ½ lb. zucchini
3 medium white turnips (1 lb.)
1 large potato
6 medium carrots (1 lb.)
2 large celery stalks with leaves
2 red onions
8 cups water, chicken broth or vegetable broth
1 cup dry white wine (optional)
1 peeled onion stuck with 4 cloves
1 whole bay leaf
1 can (1 lb.) diced tomatoes, undrained
2 tsp. dried basil leaves or 2 Tbs. minced fresh basil
1/8 tsp. dried hot pepper
1 ½ tsp. salt
2 Tbs. chopped fresh parsley
Soak beans overnight in cold water to cover. Next day, drain beans in colander and rinse under cold water. Prepare vegetables dice zucchini, pare and dice turnips and potato into cubes, pare and thinly slice carrots, slice celery, coarsely chop the 2 red onions.
Heat oil in 6 qt. soup pot or Dutch oven over medium-low heat. Add garlic, zucchini, turnips, carrots, celery and chopped onions and saute for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add beans, water or broth, wine and remaining ingredients except parsley.
Bring to boiling over medium heat; reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 2 hours or until beans are tender. To serve, remove whole onion and bay leaf and adjust seasoning. Stir in parsley. Flavor is even better the next day.
Notes: equivalent amount of fresh tomatoes can be used instead of canned. You can use canned and drained canneli or great northern beans instead of the dried. If so, follow direction but dont add the beans and only simmer the soup for an hour. Then add the beans and cook another 15 minutes. Soup will stay nice for 4 or 5 days in fridge but is bad for freezing.
There are many versions of this, none of which are for the faint of heart:
BLT Soup
1 lb bacon
6-8 tomatoes
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 head lettuce
2 qts hkeavy cream
2 cups stock
6 tbls flour
white pepper to taste
garlic powder to taste
Cut entire slab of bacon crosswise into 1/4 inch lardings. Dice tomatoes into 1/4 inch cubes. Chop lettuce.
Saute bacon until cooked but not crisped. Add tomatoes until cooked through. Deglaze pot with white wine and add pepper and garlic. Add flour and cook for a few minutes longer.
Add cream slowly and enough stock to thin soup to desired consistency. Bring just to boiling point and add lettuce. Turn off heat and let sit for a few minutes until lettuce wilts into soup.
Chester Aaron, the garlic king of the West Coast, makes this borsht variation that really sticks with you. He was kind enough to share the recipe for:
Chester Aaron's Root Soup
6 beets, heads & greens
3 turnips
8 carrots
3 parsnips
2 large white onions
1/4 cup wine vinegar
juice of 2 lemons
6 tbls honey
2 tbls butter
salt & pepper to taste
1 head garlic
Separate beet heads from greens. Peel roots and cut into slices or cubes. Cover with water. Add vinegar, lemon juice and honey. Boil until tender. Remove from pot.
Chop beet greens. Add to water and boil 10 minutes. Remove. Adjust sweet/sour taste with more honey or vinegar.
Cut other roots into chinks and cook in a separate pot until tender. Reserve the cooking water.
Slice onions and fry in butter until golden.
In a large bowl add all roots except beets. Blend with an immersion blender, and keep adding vetetable water as needed until soup has a fine, smooth texture. Pour into separate container.
Using immersion blender, bring beets, in teir red juice, to the same smooth texture.
Mix beet puree into other vegetable liquid. Stir. Add salt & pepper to taste. Reheat and serve, or chill and serve cold.
Here is a great soup.

Got a deal on Brie (rain-check for 4 lbs @ $4 ea) I'm definitely going to try that one. Marigene: those are hot chiles? I have Jalapeños in the garden.
From Bon Appetit or Gourmet at least 20 years ago, have long since lost the recipe, now I just wing it:
Autumn Vegetable Chowder
chop to bite size:
Saute onion & garlic in
Olive oil
until wilted, add remaining vegetables along with
Canned whole plum tomatoes & their juice, tomatoes quartered.
Worcestershire sauce to taste
Simmer until the root veggies are almost fork-tender at which point it freezes well. Thaw frozen or continue cooking fresh until fork-tender, salt & pepper to taste. Just before serving stir in shredded
Sharp cheddar cheese
This is one of my very favorite soups.
Portuguese Chourico and Kale Soup
Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 medium white waxy potatoes, like Yukon Golds, peeled and diced
2 medium onions, chopped
4-6 cloves fresh garlic, chopped
2 bay leaves, fresh or dried
1 pound kale, coarsely chopped
Coarse salt and pepper
1 (15-ounce can garbanzos (chick peas), drained and rinsed
1 can diced tomatoes
1 pound diced chourico, casing removed. I substituted chorizo.
1 quart chicken broth
Warm crusty bread
Heat oil in a deep pot over med. high heat. Add potatoes and onions, cover and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add garlic, bay leaves, and kale to the pot. Cover pot and wilt greens 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add beans, tomatoes, meat and broth to the pot and bring soup to a full boil. Reduce heat back to medium and cook 5 to 10 minutes longer or until potatoes are tender.
Serve soup with hunks of crusty bread and butter.
My changes.....I like to cook the potatoes and onions till they just start to turn golden. Also have kept this on simmer for much longer. The veggies stay nice and firm.

Easy, Creamy Potato Soup
5-6 large potatoes, peeled and cut into bite size pieces
1/2-1 lb bacon
1/4-1/2 cup flour
3 cups chicken broth
2 cups heavy cream
3/4 cup frozen kernel corn or 1 can whole kernel corn, drained
1 medium onion, diced
6 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup butter (optional)
salt and pepper, to taste
Fry bacon until crisp (I actually prefer bacon ends and peices...cheaper too) Remove to paper towels to drain. Reserve bacon grease.
Meanwhile, boil potatoes in a large dutch oven in water; do not add salt! Drain
Pour reserved bacon grease into empty dutch oven; saute onion and garlic in reserved bacon grease until onion is lightly browned.
Add flour to the sauted onion mixture, stirring to evenly brown; add cream and stir constantly until mixture thickens; add chicken broth and stir until bubbly.
Stir potatoes, corn and crumbled bacon into the soup; add butter, salt and pepper to taste. (you may not need salt. Bacon is very salty) Simmer until butter is melted and stirred into soup.
Add milk at little at a time if soup is too thick for your tastes.
(note: Easy bacon bits. Partially freeze bacon. Cut into 1/4 in strips and then turn and cut into 1/4 inch pieces. Fry until crisp)
Szechuan Chicken Soup
2-3 chicken breast halves
10 cups water
1 large onion, diced
8 garlic cloves, thinnly sliced
1 large bay leaf
2 tablespoons soy sauce
6-8 dried red chilies
2 cups celery, sliced into bite size pieces
1 cup carrots, sliced into bite size pieces
1 (8 ounce) package sugar snap peas
2 (8 ounce) cans water chestnuts, sliced
3 teaspoons ground ginger
2-3 teaspoons ground red pepper (optional)
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped (optional)
16 ounces pre-shredded cabbage and carrot coleslaw mix
12 ounces fresh bean sprouts
2 (8 ounce) packages stir fry noodles (Hot 'N' Spicy, fully cooked with sauce packet) (optional)
chow mein noodles (optional)
chopped peanuts (optional)
Place water, chicken breasts, onion, garlic, bay leaf, chilies and soy sauce in a large soup pot or dutch oven; simmer until chicken is done and falling off the bone; remove chicken to cool.
Add celery, carrots, sugar snap peas, water chestnuts, ground red pepper and ginger to the cooking liquid; simmer until vegetables are tender; remove bay leaf and chilies and discard.
Remove cooled chicken meat from the bones, dice into bite size pieces and add to the soup mix in the pot.
Add coleslaw mix, cilantro (if using), stir fry noodles, sauce packets and bean sprouts; bring to a boil and simmer 1 minute or until cabbage is cooked to desired consistancy. I prefer my veggies to be crisp tender.
Garnish with the chow mein noodles and peanuts if desired and serve hot.
(Although the chow mein noodles and peanuts are listed as optional, I highly recommend them. They add so much depth to the soup.)

Glad you like the Chicken Gruyere Bisque, Roselin!
This recipe was given to me by a woman I was in a recipe robin with in the early 90's. The combination sounds odd but it makes a great soup for cool autumn days.
I have a new one to add this year. I made this soup a couple of weeks ago, and it was really good - my notes on changes I made are included at the bottom. I have a 13yo son who's growing like a weed, so I needed to make it a little more substantial if we were going to have it for dinner.

NOTES : Made 9-17-07 Added 1 pound of Italian sausage, only used 3 carrots and 2 zucchini, and added a can of diced tomatoes in sauce. Used two cans of broth instead of water. Cooked cheese tortellini separately to add in bowls.
Yep, soup weather ahead. Thanks for bringing this thread back, Eileen.
I can't count how many times I've made this soup since David first posted it on the cooking forum.
26 garlic cloves (unpeeled)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
2 1/4 cups sliced onions
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
18 garlic cloves, peeled
3 1/2 cups chicken stock or canned low-salt chicken broth
1/2 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese (about 2 ounces)
4 lemon wedges
Preheat oven to 350°F. Place 26 garlic cloves in small glass baking dish. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Cover baking dish tightly with foil and bake until garlic is golden brown and tender, about 45 minutes. Cool. Squeeze garlic between fingertips to release cloves. Transfer cloves to small bowl.
Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onions and thyme and cook until onions are translucent, about 6 minutes. Add roasted garlic and 18 raw garlic cloves and cook 3 minutes. Add chicken stock; cover and simmer until garlic is very tender, about 20 minutes. Working in batches, purée soup in blender until smooth. Return soup to saucepan; add cream and bring to simmer. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium heat, stirring occasionally.)
Divide grated cheese among 4 bowls and ladle soup over. Squeeze juice of 1 lemon wedge into each bowl and serve.
Serves 4.
My notes: I usually just cut the tops off 2 or 3 (depending on size) whole bulbs of garlic instead of the 26 garlic cloves in the first step and use 1/2 tsp. dried thyme if fresh is not available. Dont leave out the lemon wedges.
FRENCH ONION SOUP serves 4 to 6
3 Tbs. butter
4 large sweet onions (about 1 1/2 pounds total), peeled and thinly sliced
1 tsp. sugar (optional, see note)
1 cup dry white wine
2 quarts beef broth
2 ribs celery with leaves, each rib cut in half
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1/4 cup dry sherry
4 to 6 slices baguette, cut 1/2 inch thick, lightly toasted
1/4 cup coarsely grated Emmental, Gruyere, or other Swiss-type cheese
Melt the butter in a 3 or 4 quart saucepan over low heat. Add the onions and sugar. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are lightly caramelized, a minimum of 30 minutes. (The longer the onions cook slowly, the richer the flavor of the soup.)
Add the white wine and cook over medium-high heat until the wine reduces to about half, about 10 minutes. Add the broth, celery, salt and pepper and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover partially, and allow the soup to simmer until the onions are meltingly tender, about 40 minutes. Remove and discard the celery. Add the sherry and simmer soup for another 5 minutes.
To serve, preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Ladle the soup into individual ovenproof bowls. Top each with 1 slice of bread, sprinkle with 1 Tbs. cheese, and place the bowls on a cookie sheet. Heat in the center of the preheated oven just until the cheese melts and bubbles, 5 to 6 minutes. Carefully remove from the oven and serve at once.
Note: The tiny bit of sugar added to the onions helps caramelize them, but the onions themselves will caramelize if theyre sweet enough and if youre patient enough. I never use it, just keep them cooking. I always use firm yellow onions. The large white onions dont seem to get soft enough and vidalias become soft but have such a bland flavor when cooked.
This is a recipe I got off of Todd's Secret Recipes on the Internet site years ago when his site had a forum to share recipes. It's nothing fancy, but REAL good, and REAL easy. The best I can describe it as is a Chuckwagon-Vegetable soup. It takes no time to make and real filling.
8-Can Crockpot Soup
1 Lb Ground Beef
1 Can Condensed Cream of Tomato Soup
1 Can Condensed Alphabet Vegetable Soup
1 Can Diced Tomatoes
1 Can Rotel
1 Can Hormel Chili With Beans
1 Can Hormel Chili Without Beans
1 Can Corn
1 Can Vegall
Brown the hamburger, and add all the ingredients into a crockpot and let simmer for 5-6 hours, or alternately you can simmer in a stock pot for about 1-2 hours. I don't dilute the condensed soups, and I do drain the cans of corn and Vegall. It makes a bunch, but I've never had it go to waste.
Perfect timing, Eileen! My annual Fall Bonfire and Soup Buffet is October 25. I may just add that Brie Soup to my menu. Somehow I missed that one!
May as well add a couple more:
Turkey Spaetzle Soup
2T vegetable oil
I large onion, finely chopped
1 medium carrot, finely chopped
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
¼ c all purpose flour
2tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 c diced, cooked turkey
6 c chicken broth
1 bag (12oz) frozen spaetzle
Chopped fresh parsley (optional)
In 4qt saucepan, heat oil over medium high heat. Add onion, carrot, celery and garlic, cook until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.
Gradually stir in flour, thyme and pepper, cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in turkey and broth, heart to a boil.
Stir in spaetzle. Cook 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Garnish with parsley, serve. Yield: 6 servings (1-3/4 c each)
My notes: I cant get frozen spaetzle so I made my own. You could also substitute egg noodles for the spaetzle.
This soup is delicious and really quick to prepare!
Smoked Sausage, Butternut Squash and Wild Rice Soup
Courtesy Emeril LaGasse
2 medium butternut squash, about 3 to 4 pounds, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1\-inch chunks
2 tablespoons olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper
12 cups chicken stock
2 1/2 cups chopped onions
1 cup wild rice
3/4 pound smoked sausage, such as kielbasa, cut into 1/4\-inch
2 cups fresh corn kernels
1 1/2 cups half\-and\-half
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Season the squash with 1 tablespoon of the oil, salt and pepper. Place on a baking sheet and roast for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until tender. Remove from the oven and cool completely. In a blender or food processor, puree the squash with 2 cups of the chicken stock. Puree until smooth and set aside.
In a saucepan, over medium heat, bring 4 cups of the stock and 1/2 cup of the chopped onions to a simmer. Stir in the rice and cook until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 1 hour, stirring occasionally with a fork. Remove the rice from the pan and cool.
In a large saucepan, over medium heat, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. When the oil is hot, add the sausage and brown for 3 minutes. Add the remaining 2 cups of onions and corn. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 3 minutes. Add the remaining 6 cups of stock and squash puree. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium\-low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Skim off any fat that rises to the surface.
Stir in the rice and continue to cook for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the half\-and\-half and reason with salt and pepper. Stir in the parsley and serve.
my notes: the smoked sausage overpowers this soup. Use regular pork sausage instead.

Roasted Tomato Soup
Recipe courtesy Tyler Florence, posted by Maggie (CF)
2 1/2 pounds fresh tomatoes (mix of fresh heirlooms, cherry, vine and plum tomatoes)
6 cloves garlic, peeled
2 small yellow onions, sliced
Vine cherry tomatoes for garnish, optional
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 quart chicken stock
2 bay leaves
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves, optional
3/4 cup heavy cream, optional
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
Wash, core and cut the tomatoes into halves. Spread the tomatoes, garlic cloves and onions onto a baking tray. If using vine cherry tomatoes for garnish, add them as well, leaving them whole and on the vine. Drizzle with 1/2 cup of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, or until caramelized.
Remove roasted tomatoes, garlic and onion from the oven and transfer to a large stock pot (set aside the roasted vine tomatoes for later). Add 3/4 of the chicken stock, bay leaves, and butter. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until liquid has reduced by a third.
Wash and dry basil leaves, if using, and add to the pot. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Return soup to low heat, add cream and adjust consistency with remaining chicken stock, if necessary. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Garnish in bowl with 3 or 4 roasted vine cherry tomatoes and a splash of heavy cream.

I posted this on Once-a-Week cooking because it freezes so well . . . I double it in my large crockpot and freeze in 2-serving containers.
Crock Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup
15 minutes preparation time, 8 hours cooking time
2 (15oz.) cans black beans
2 (15 oz.) cans Rotel tomatoes with chilies
1 (14.5 oz.) can tomato sauce
1 (4 oz.) can chopped green chilies
1 cup salsa, your preference as to strength (I use medium)
Without draining anything, place all in crockpot; stir until mixed.
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves -- Rinse and submerge in the above mixture. Cook on low for 8 hours. Remove chicken from crockpot and shred with two forks. Return chicken to crockpot.
1 can Niblets corn -- Stir in and heat 10-15 minutes, or just long enough to get corn and chicken hot.
Serve topped with crushed tortilla chips, shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.
Using the Rotel tomatoes with chilies will produce a spicy soup for milder soup, use regular diced tomatoes and mild salsa. This recipe freezes perfectly its like money in the bank! Enjoy! :o).
This ham and white bean soup recipe is a comforting favorite. With or without the Swiss chard, it's an excellent fall soup.
Simple and Delicious Clam Chowder.
2 cans potato soup
1 can New England clam chowder
1 can cream of celery
2 cans minced clams
2 cups of half and half or milk
pepper and garlic powder to taste
Put all ingredients in a pot and simmer. I was really surprised how good this recipe was using canned soup. It's even better the next day.
My first time here. I've come from the Gardenweb Cooking Forum.
Over there, I posted that I have a Word file (also in .pdf format) of 160+ soup recipes. About 1/3 of the recipes were gatehered from the Cooking forum (almost all of them also posted in this thread), about 1/3 of them are my original recipes and about 1/3 of them are basic recipes that II threw in to fill it out. Oh, and about 1/3 are other recipes that I've tweaked/improved. Okay, so that equals 1-1/3; I'm a chef, not a mathematician.
I am happy to share this file with anyone who would like it. I'll start a separate post for the details.
It's my first time here.. but I do like soups. Ever since I first tasted Compbell's condensed mushroom soup in the 1960s, that's been my favourite.
I've tried my own recipes, with some degrees of success, but have to say that I came across this one
which I have tried and tasted fab!
However my blender is on the blink, so I'm going to have to start searching for a new one... More expense!!
I love chicken noodle soup. This is an oriental version given to me by my BIL from Viet Nam. It is very light, but the rice noodles seem to grow in the bowl as you eat it.
Oriental Chicken Noodle Soup (called Pho)
8 cups chicken stock with one whole star anise
One chicken boiled in the chicken broth and deboned (be sure to pull off the foam that floats to the top)
one half cup grated carrots (optional)
two small slices fresh ginger, mash with the butt of your knife handle and thrown in
Bring all the above up to a boil and add very thin rice noodles. One double handful, or two small nests.
While this is coming to a boil, take all of the soup bowls and place chopped cilantro and green onion into them along with a dash of sesame oil. Spoon the soup into the bowls and enjoy! (be sure not to serve either the star anise or the ginger)

Add sausage and saute 5 minutes longer or until it starts to brown. Add the broth, tomato paste & seasonings and simmer a few minutes. Add beans. Bring liquid to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Add pasta and simmer on low for 10 minutes or until pasta is al dente (keep an eye on it--it needs to be al dente). Stir in the parsley and cook for another minute or two. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
My note: this is very good; don't use too much pasta since it gets soggy if not eaten right away (it seems to multiply as a leftover!). *Use the seasonings you like for this type of soup (you could sub Seasonal for the Frankenmuth Chicken Seasoning; garlic powder instead of garlic cloves, etc). I like to cook the soup longer and really like Hillshire Farms turkey kielbasa (has lots of flavor).
adapted from JerseyGirlCooks blog recipe
This is a great soothing soup:
8 cups (64 ounces) chicken stock or prepared broth
1 medium onion, chopped
1 teaspoon fish sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
Pinch of salt
2 1/2 pounds (2 bundles) asparagus,trimmed and cut on the diagonal into 1-inch pieces
1/2 pound cooked crab meat, remove any shells or cartilage (you can also use the canned variety)
2 tablespoons corn starch mixed with 4 Tbs. water
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
Chopped cilantro and scallions for garnish
In a large saucepan high heat, combine the chicken stock, onion, fish sauce, white pepper and salt; bring to a rolling boil. Add the asparagus and simmer until the asparagus is cooked but still crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Slowly pour the cornstarch and egg mixture into the stock, stirring constantly to form even threads of cooked egg, about 2 minute.
Add the crabmeat and boil until it is warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasonings. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve immediately. Garnish with a pinch of cilantro and scallions.

Monopoly to Drop Classic Token, Add New One
A big change is coming to a classic board game, and YOU get to roll the dice and make a key decision in it.
FOX News Radio's Chris Hoenig has the story:
Audio clip:
Forget "Passing GO!" and forget that $200, one of the Monopoly tokens is going to jail…for life. Hasbro announcing they are going to replace one game piece with a new token, and YOU get to decide which is out.
Will it be the dog that doesn't sit?
(Dog Whimpering from Hasbro Facebook Commercial)
What about the battleship that doesn't float? Maybe the shoe that's been missing its mate for nearly 80 years? Or that wheelbarrow that's too small for your wad of Monopoly money?
The vote is on Monopoly's Facebook page; polls close February 5th. The loser will be replaced by one of five finalists: a robot, a diamond ring, a cat, guitar or a helicopter.
Chris Hoenig, FOX News Radio.

100 Undead Warlock
Recently I got the news that my RL / in game friend Samurcain passed away from an aggressive cancer that he was unable to beat. He was a good friend to everyone that knew him and an amazing warcraft player.
I would like to get as many people to post here as possible, with the goal being getting an NPC placed in game somewhere as a memorial to him. Something along the lines of a warlock trainer or arena vendor, undead warlock in s6 gear ( the season he got gladiator) with his name and title.
I'm not sure if this will work, but a GM replied to this request by saying the forums were my best bet. I figure if we can get enough posts and maybe get a blue to notice, theres a chance that something could be done. If not then let this thread serve as a place to say something nice about Sam.
Also this probably has to be said, any trolls /disrespectful posts should be reported but also ignored, please dont reply to anything of the sort and bloat the thread with meaningless crap.
Farewell bud, we're all going to miss you.
85 Orc Death Knight
Samurcain was the best friend I ever had on Duskwood. He taught me how to be less bad and sacrificed many hours of his own life to help me. This is just a game, but there are real friends to be made, and Sam was one. All he wanted to do was help me, answer every question I had, and virtually show me how to better myself. He made Warcraft enjoyable for me, and due only to him was I successful at all in PvP.
Sam was the kindest person I have ever met on this game, and I cannot think of a single soul in the world that could deserve this more than him. It may be pointless but it's the best way we can pay tribute to his memory.
As Nhiosis said, everyone who knew him will miss him. I miss him.
Bump for in-game tribute to Samurcain.
Edited by Glarily on 9/7/2011 8:02 PM PDT
85 Orc Hunter
he was my best friend my partner in everything, always supporting lots of people and yet also the best in the lean on all our doubts shared his playing time to be with us others, but also was not all wow, also shared time playing sports and having fun
85 Blood Elf Rogue
Man this is a bummer i was looking forward to his return. He was just an awesome person was one of my fave people to play with. This man totally deserves the memorial. never met a better human being god rest your soul bro we miss you!
85 Orc Shaman
I really did not know Samurcain for that long, but from encounters in guild chat and me asking him for a little advice here and there, I learned that Samurcain was a really nice guy and a very good world of warcraft player. Samurcain was never mean or turned anyone away who asked him for adive and for that ill always remember him as great guy. I'll miss you bud!
85 Orc Death Knight
Samurcain was a great person. Still can't believe he passed away. I've known him since back in burning crusade when we were in the guild <Tekila>. He was a great guy and even though this is just a game, he was a great friend on here. We did arena together back when I played on my hunter Jembani. Had lots of fun playing together and managed to reach 2k rating for the first time with him. He was the one carrying me XD. I''ll miss you man!
85 Night Elf Druid
I didn't know Sam for long, but I remember him since he was one of the best players on Duskwood. I was able to play with him last season when he transfered his dk over to alliance to play with me and Kiskisi and enjoyed playing with him for those few months, he was a really nice person, easy to talk to, always up for anything, really friendly, even helped me and played 3s with my alt. Even tho we only knew each other over the internet, we had fun in arena, when I heard about him passing away I was shocked, and mad that such a young and nice person passed away and he couldnt do anything about it.
I really hope that there will be some kind of memorial, NPC is alot to ask, since alot of people that play wow pass away but if it could be a tombstone with his characters name somewhere in wow, or an npc, even if only on duskwood I'd be really greatful, he out of all people deserves it!
R.I.P, We will miss you SAM.
Edited by Maikopl on 9/7/2011 9:06 PM PDT
Didn't know him personally very well, but knew of him. I knew him as the best warlock to ever grace this server. Fondest memory, Samurcain stripping down to nothing but a weapon and beating me in a duel at level 80. Good times.
Cheers, Mr Cain, Rest in Peace.
85 Orc Warrior
So many memories with this dude. Raided with him at 70, did arena with him since s4, got glad with him in s6, and even transferred server to play with him in s9. Always such a cool, funny and humble player, and big contributor to Duskwood's PvP community. Been friends with this guy for 3-4 years and it's just hard to believe hes really gone...
To one of the coolest players I've ever played with in a game: You will be missed! Goodbye, friend. :(
85 Orc Shaman
Sadly only knew him by name and in passing, but have heard a lot of great things about him, and deff think blizzard could do a little something to help a server remember someone who brought many great memories to it. Its people like that, that keep people paying that $16 to keep playing. Hope it happens for him for sure.
Rip good Sir, and as sad as we are to see you go, even happier your not dealing with that battle any more.
85 Undead Warlock
Didn't know him well, but he seemed like a nice guy. Obviously, he will be missed.
I never knew Sam personally, but I did fight him quite a few times in WotLK. The way he played his warlock was amazing and I actually feared his skills. It was one of the reasons that made me want to improve my PvP skills. He was one of those people that I admired, and respected as a pvp'er on horde side.
From what his friends say about his, he is amazing person. I would like it too if he got a memorial within game. Thanks Sam, for being a great player and making me realize I needed to play better to be a challenge even if I didn't know you personally.
Rest In Peace.
Though it has been a long since we have had a conversation with each other, this is still a hard loss. I'm not going to forget all the times I struggled with his less-than-stellar english oh so long ago. The jokes about cyber cafes. The random hellos, in days long past when we used to raid together.. His modesty when I congratulated him on Gladiator. I don't really know what else to say right now.
ETA because I feel it necessary:

85 Human Death Knight
Heard about this from Wauk the other night on skype and I can't believe how quick he left us. I met him in wotlk on the roofs of Wintergrasp and he was alway gm even in world pvp which is a rare thing to find. Never got to play with him in unrivaled but playing against him was just as satisfying to someone just starting in the pvp world.
An amazing teacher, contender and friend to many. Condolences to Nhio, Koranu, Jolly and anyone else who was close enough to have the honor of calling him friend.
85 Worgen Druid
I never had the honor of playing with, or against him. But from all I have read, he seemed like a very helpful and kind hearted person.
It is always hard to lose someone. As some have said, even if this is just a game, the friendships we make will still last well beyond our playing time.
RIP to you Sam. And condolences to all of his guildmates and family members.
85 Blood Elf Priest
We played and raided several times With sam, in <Tekila>, in TBC times. He was a nice pvp player and wow friend.
I Heard about the cancer, was a terrible news for me. And when I see some post in FB about of this event, was Sadly.
Everywhere, We will remeber you friend!!!!
Requiescat in pace.
Edited by Jxanlext on 9/8/2011 8:30 AM PDT
85 Goblin Shaman
It was great to raid with him in BC and awesome PvPing with him in Unrivaled. Honestly got quite a shock hearing about this today.
R.I.P, champ.
85 Blood Elf Paladin
I don't even know what to really say about this. I'm just so lost as to why something so horrible could happen to someone so nice. Even though i only did 5's with him in S9 I never heard him say anything negative or mean at all. I remember playing against Sam in Wintergrasp and just getting completely outplayed no matter if i was holy or ret. Just getting trained like that in wintergrasp made me wanna get better so that maybe someday I could give him a run for his money but sadly that will never happen.
He was a great guy.
Will miss you man Rest in Peace bud
Edited by Petsthebunny on 9/8/2011 11:29 AM PDT
85 Troll Hunter
I first met sam in woltk in the sewers of Dal. He helped me out in so many ways for pvp questions never was rude always nice he would answer any that you asked. I am at loss what to say. He was a good friend and anyone that played with him would agree one of the nicest person to play with. Rip Bud you will be missed.

Aleene's Decoupage Clipboard Art Frame
By: Tiffany Windsor
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Turn a simple office supply into a piece of mixed media art. Learn how to make Aleene's Decoupage Clipboard Art Frame from Tiffany Windsor and display it on a mantel, desk or wall. Use scrapbook papers to create a completely unique look and add a ribbon for a cool touch.
Remove the clip from the clipboard and decoupage the surface. Use a variety of scrapbook papers with distint designs - this is the best way to get rid of scraps. Once the surface is dry, cut a piece of mat board and adhere it to the clipboard. Add ribbon to the piece by gluing it to the mat board. Make sure to leave some excess at the end so you can tie a bow. Add any embellishments to the piece and add the clip back onto the board.
For a step-by-step tutorial of this project, check out Decoupage Mixed Media Art Frame.

Pitcher Perfect
Summer is too short to mix a drink for everyone you know. Instead, whip up these no-fuss, can't-miss pitcher cocktails, and kick back like you've earned it
August 10, 2010
We've been riding out this heat wave in an iced-down rooftop kiddy pool, but the time has come to entertain again. Since it's still too hot for shaking cocktails, we sought guidance from bartender Don Lee—former beverage director at PDT, and the man behind the brilliant pickled ramp martini at Momofuku Ssäm Bar. Lee had a typically elegant solution: This step-by-step guide to three straightforward and delicious cocktails, mixed by the pitcher so there's plenty to go around. "Because you should spend time drinking with your friends," Don Lee reminds us. "Not making drinks for them."

my hubby loves it
I only used three tablespoons of butter (sorry, Land O' Lakes people) but this was delicious!
Took me a lot longer than the 35 minutes total time on the recipe. Cut the soy sauce in half, cut the ginger root in half and used pineapple tidbits instead of chunks. Could not get the chicken to brown without overcooking and the carrots need to go in skillet before the snow peas or the snow peas will over cook. On the positive side, my husband will eat it again which doesn't happen very often with a new recipe!

The Mint White Chocolate Tart takes a little bit of effort to make with its multiple steps, but the end result is fluffy, subtly sweet and has a perfect hint of mint.

ginger and sesame to a

Eggs Benedict, like this Cheesy Eggs Benedict, is the quintessential brunch dish, but it sure can be challenging to serve to a crowd with so many last-minute elements – toasting English muffins, poaching eggs and making hollandaise sauce. Of course, it can be made easier by toasting all the muffins on a sheet in the oven, and by poaching your eggs the day before your brunch. More ...
