Vicki here, delighted to welcome my good friend, the Canadian author Sydney leigh, back to the kitchen. This soup looks fabulous, and I’m eager to try it. As I am her new book, Instagoner.
------------------
With the cooler temperatures moving in, nothing appeals to me more than a hearty, flavorful soup. My must-haves are simple ingredients and easy steps. Far from a master chef, my skills are basic, at best. My protagonist, blogger Emily Dalle, doesn’t post a lot of recipes either. She’s too busy sharing the details of a recent police investigation. In my new mystery, Instagoner, Emily enlists the help of her followers to solve the recent murder of local talk show host, Jackie Hunter. Crowdsourcing for clues has never been so dangerous. Bon appétit!

This time of year, we often turn to hearty meals that warm you from the inside out. As example, homemade chili or a big bowl of vegetable beef stew fits that bill. Taught by my mother never to waste anything means putting dabs in the freezer of the fresh veggies through the growing season and leftover beef roast. That way you can add just a few ingredients to these "saved" items and make a big pot of vegetable beef soup that tastes just like you've picked the veggies right that day from the garden. Fresh is always better than canned!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the delicious sounding recipe! I will be adding it to my recipe file for this winter's quick and easy meals.

Oooh I love homemade chili. What a great suggestion. Thank you for stopping by Kay. You've made me hungry. Is chili an acceptable breakfast meal, LOL? I say yes!
DeleteThank you so much to the talented Mystery Lovers' Kitchen crew and, in particular, my friend and author extraordinaire, Vicki Delany! I absolutely love finding new recipes here and am thrilled to be your guest today.
ReplyDeleteBig fan of one pot meals, so soups are a standard part of winter meals. We also enjoy marinara which I usually make from fresh or San Marzano canned tomatoes, stews, chili, stroganoff and casseroles. Welcome to the Kitchen, Sydney and thanks for a new soup to try.
ReplyDeleteGood morning Marcia and thank you for the warm welcome! I love one pot meals, too. Hearty, simple, not too much clean up. What's not to love? One of my goals this winter is to attempt a marinara. I'll make sure to pick up some San Marzano canned tomatoes--thanks for the tip!
DeleteAre the oniion and garlic cut up before cooking?
ReplyDeleteHi Libby, yes, I cut them up in large chunks before cooking.
DeleteWelcome to our kitchen Sydney, can't wait to try the soup!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Lucy! I hope you enjoy the soup :)
