The weather outside suddenly turned very gray and cold, so I’m embracing the opportunity to talk soup, again. You might be thinking: “What does it matter if it’s gray and cold outside?” Well, it is commonly known that eating soups is linked with bad weather and cold seasons. Soups have warming up qualities. On the other hand, when it’s nice and sunny outside, people tend to reach for salads and cool dishes. Now, don’t ask me when we actually consumed this soup. We won’t go there.
Cooking vegetables has never been my favorite thing to do, let alone eating cooked vegetables. Things like broccoli and cauliflower have never entered my digestive system cooked. I just can’t get past the texture of these vegetables when they are fully cooked. I gave broccoli a try once by steaming it and then gently sauteing in olive oil, but that was the extent of it. I prefer them so much more in their raw form in a salad, that I do not mind at all. I quite enjoy their crunchiness. Now, when it comes to soups it’s a different story all together, because I mush the heck out of them.
I’ve gotten accustomed to putting grilled chicken breast into my soup. It gives it a very nice flavor and texture. I guess that’s what’s left from my past and the conviction that soup means meat….
Looks good!

Are you sure that this isn’t a bowl of batter for your pancakes? It looks just like it. Trust me, had I known that this was soup in the fridge I would have eaten it!
I might just try this as winter is approaching fast here.
You have such a nice blog and I love your photos.
I agree, this blog is very nice – it’s cool that she produces the food and the photos. I just wish she’d post a little more often.
I agree. Love the food pictures. Any chance you might put your favorite recipes into an ebook or something? That would be fun to see too!
I’ve been pretty slack with my posts, but an ebook is a good idea!
