Well it was almost fitting that was making soup today since I felt under the weather, and stayed home. Probably a mixture of things, culminating in something next to a migraine, but not quite. Needless to say I will be glad when it passes completely I do not enjoy this!
A few naps, and a bit of cooking was about all I got done today. Hopefully another full nights rest will kick this to the curb and I can carry on carrying on. Until then things are nice and quiet, slightly dark, and keeping it cool in the house.
I also realized I need to get more types of dishes. When I was serving this up, I was thinking to myself this would do much better in a proper soup bowl, not this salad bowl type thing that I had to use, the walls are much too high. I will have to add random cool looking dishes to my long list of "to buy" items.
Enough of the moaning and groaning, lets talk about food! While the soup was actually very good, I had a few things that I failed to actually do that I had planned on doing. That being straining the soup and thickening it a bit. Regardless the taste itself was still delish!
Garlic Soup
4 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp pepper
3 tbsp minced/pressed garlic
2 tbsp dried onion
1 cup chopped spinach
2 tbsp sour cream (trying to finish up the container)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
1 tbsp dried parsley
Combine the broth, garlic and onion in a pot and heat up. Add heavy cream and seasonings and bring to a rolling boil, whisking as needed, remove from heat and add spinach sour cream and cheese. Whisk again until blended. I ended up adding a bit of shredded swiss cheese right before serving (again finishing off a package).
