If you are ever looking for me on a Sunday afternoon in the fall and winter – you don’t have to search very far. A typical Sunday in our house means my boyfriend is curled up on the couch with Pug watching football and I am dancing around the kitchen trying out a new recipe.
For the colder months, it shouldn’t come as a shock that I gravitate towards making some sort of stew, soup or chili – something hardy but healthy and flavor packed at the same time. I usually make a big batch and store it in the fridge so we can grab a bowl and go during the week without having to think on those nights where we just want to loaf around and relax. If it were up to my boyfriend, I would have a beef stew in the crock-pot each week. Don’t get me wrong, I do make a pretty mean beef stew but I prefer to switch it up sometimes. (I will share that recipe with you soon)
I can’t promise to have a new post every week but I am going to try for the fall and winter to add a post each Monday with what I made the Sunday before. Let me know in the comment section if you like this idea and also if you have any suggestions or recipes I should try.
I am a sucker for Italian cooking – give me that rustic Tuscan flavor any day of the week and I will forever be happy. Last winter, we had gone out to a new Italian restaurant in our old neck of the woods and I had one of the best soups I had ever had! I look for something similar now on every menu but I haven’t been able to find anything like it. So- naturally, I made my own version.
It took awhile to get the portions and ingredients right but now I am completely obsessed. Continue reading “Soup Season. Creamy Tuscan Tortellini version.” →
