cant think straight
I have eaten more soup than a person who only eats soup. I sweat profusely and I feel better temporarily before my hacking cough returns. As a result of all this soupyness I cant have an original thought to save my life.
I am eager to follow or copy or flat out steal ideas at the drop of a ladle. When buffalo was complaining about some onion soup he made I had to make some, so I did, the funny thing is I was wanting to eat this for a few days and he just sped it up a little.
Onions and garlic are great antibiotics and antioxidants and since I wont take medicine this is the only way I roll. I made a crouton with a little bufala mozzarella and some goat cheese and this rounded it out nicely.
A standby regular is a bowl of New Mexico green chile. This is made with a little ground beef and some potatoes and a generous amount of hot green chile. Once again I am in that uncomfortable position of having to explain the difference between 'chili' and 'chile' so rather than work my already ill self up I will tell you that, to me, 'chili' comes out of a can and you put it on hot dogs.

That New Mexico green chile soup looks really hearty..Mmmm Mmm Mmm.
Are you looking for soup inspiration? I have been thinking of trying my hand at Chicken Enchilida soup...that is SO good. I made soup Baked Potato soup recently. Fresh out of soup ideas...sorry.
"Enchilada" sorry about that.
Hope you're feeling better! French onion soup sounds great to me right now, and I'm not even sick. New Mexico green chile soup also sounds quite delectable. Feel better!
harmony: I had to re-read that to see what the problem was....how do you make chicken enchilada soup?
elyse: thanks - and it doesnt matter how much soup I eat - still ill...
awww dog, I hope you get better soon. but what's with the no medicine thing? are you a scientologist or something? cuz if you are, I cannot be friends with you. freak.
beth: I use substances on a purely recreational level - I dont really believe in medicine - never have - never will.
oh...but I will take aspirin..
The french onion soup looks especially good to me - I haven't had one in a very long time. I'm sorry to hear that you're still not feeling well. Hope you will get better very soon. Maybe if we finally get some warmer weather, that will help.
Get some rest and feel better soon!!!
That french onion looks pretty good, btw. Love how the soup isn't covered by a large piece of toast and cheese. Haven't had that in a while.
Hope you feel better soon!
Time will do the trick, and of course the soup treatment! chili in a bottle? ok maybe I'll have to call it chile from now on.
This soup with these amazing croutons looks so fabulous! Where is the recipe? Or do we have to get sick to make it?
I'm starting to wonder if germs can be transmitted electronically --seems like half of us are sick.
Feel better, friend.
I made French Onion soup the other day also.. Use wine in yours?
At least you got to eat your onion soup...grumble grumble...
5 star: I havent had anything like this illness in a couple of years so I guess I was due...
jenn: portion control - you can always add another piece put you cant take away
joy: thanks Joy
anette: chile is the fruit and chili is whatever you want it to be
jamie: send me an e mail I will write out a recipe for you
jeanne: I hope not because I dont want any STDS...LOL
donna: yes I do - just a splash
buff: you could have eaten yours too but you acted like a newlywed wife -sorry wifes out there-
You can come up with those croutons when you're down for the count? I'm lucky if I can open a pack of saltine crackers. Hope you feel better soon!
There must be "soup in the air" this week....I ...Gina...who never cooks....made soup...Southern Ham soup....a recipe I invented several years ago..... and tomorrow...in honor of passover...I will make my first batch of Matzo ball soup...I think I'll blog about it cause no one will believe me....better take pictures too...lol...further proof.
hope you are feeling better.
Big ups and kudos to your bowl of onions! Soup soup soup. So good.
