Posole!
Posole Here is a recipe for Posole, which is a soup, but somehow (at least to me) crosses all of the boundaries into all seasons. The light broth, the hint of green chili, the fresh cilantro and onions… it doesn’t feel like JUST a winter dish. But, when the air cools, all I can think … Continue reading
Cold Green Bean Stew
I picked some green beans too late, and the tomatoes we picked were a tad mealy. Of course, you don’t need over ripe and mealy fruit to do this! But it is a great recipe in case you have that. 4 big gripfuls of green beans (yes, with the beans sticking out everywhere), sliced along … Continue reading

Tortilla Soup w/ Avocado
Sooo, my hubby and I just had the discussion about creamy soups the other day. I use the word creamy as a descriptive word, not a literal one. I rarely put actual cream in any soup, but the texture is creamy. Anyhow, I was flavor profiling him, and he loves brothy soups, not blended. Which in … Continue reading
