Margaret Button: Single serving Tortilla Soup perfect for party of one - Berkshire Eagle

Image
If it’s one thing I’ve learned in the past eight years since losing my husband, it’s how hard it is to cook for just one person. For the year after his death, our son lived at home, so it wasn’t that bad. And then he moved to the eastern part of the state and I found myself in the position of cooking for one — me. My fall-back supper for one is usually pasta. During the COVID-19 lockdown this spring, I gained 10 pounds from eating too many carbs — mostly in the form of linguine with a creamy lemon sauce, which I made at least twice a week. Many of my favorite foods — meatloaf, casseroles, pulled pork — can’t really be halved. So, I eat them for supper the first night and then again for every lunch and supper for the next few days. Or, I end up freezing them in portion-sized bags — and end up not using them because they get buried at the back of the freezer. After the pandemic pasta pounds appeared, I turned to meat and veggie stir fries, buying small amounts of meat from the butch...

Step into fall with soup - The Leader

Image
With the arrival of fall, and hopefully chillier weather soon, also comes the season for soups that will warm you inside out. My favorite soup is the classic chicken noodle soup. It’s such a simple soup, but I love it. I’ve made my own for years now and it’s something my family actually asks me to make, whether they are feeling under the weather or if they’re just wanting soup. My version of chicken noodle soup is extra easy. I boil chicken in broth while also cooking chopped celery and carrots. I like my celery and carrots completely soft, so the cooking process takes a while. Then I shred the chicken and throw it back in the broth. I add pepper and some salt. My preference when it comes to this soup is lots of noodles, which isn’t the case for most recipes. One recipe I have tried can be found online at https://ift.tt/2vhCwj8. What I like about this recipe is that it uses bone-in chicken, which gives the broth a nice, rich flavor. I also am a fan of the addition of parsley leave...

Prayers and chicken soup - Xenia Gazette

Image
Fran’s Favorites We woke up early this morning with the troubling news that both President Trump and Mrs. Trump have the coronavirus. Our prayers go with them that they will have a speedy recovery. It took me back to a couple of months ago when Mike initially tested positive (even though we found out later that day that it was a false positive.) For me it was a time to make sure we were prepared to quarantine, to make sure that we had something to eat and the things we needed to get us through. And it was a time to pray. I immediately went to the freezer and pulled out a large frozen chicken to roast, thinking that it would make a good dinner for us, and I could simmer the bones afterward to make all kinds of delicious soups. Nothing feels better when you are sick than chicken soup. I love to have beautiful broth in the freezer so that I can make many dinners. The possibilities are endless: chicken and noodles or chicken noodle soup, chicken and rice soup, chicken and vegetabl...

Progresso Toppers make soup season even more convenient - FoodSided

Image
With heat and eat convenience, Progresso Toppers become a pantry staple. As people crave more comfort foods, Progresso Toppers have made that warm bowl of soup more convenient. More importantly, you don’t have to worry about doing the dishes, again. Over the past several months, families have spent more time at home. While that change might have reduced the frequency of dining out, it increased the amount of dirty dishes piled in the sink. Recently, Progresso found that 47%  of parents said that they constantly have dirty dishes in the sink. Even with the best chore chart, those piles of dirty dishes can create family strife, not to mention dish pan hands. Progresso has come up with a convenient solution, Progresso Toppers. The classic Progresso soup that people love comes in an easy meal time solution, no mess and definitely no dishes. Chris Borges, senior brand manager for Progresso at General Mills said, “we wanted to share an easy meal solution for consumers working at ho...

A Mexican Chicken Soup With Tomatillos And Hominy That's Packed With Layers Of Flavor - wgbh.org

Image
To layer in the flavor, this Milk Street recipe uses both whole toasted coriander and cumin seeds for the broth, and ground spices sauteed in with the onions. The soup's heat hinges on the jalapeños. For more heat, use serranos or include the chilies' seeds. If you can't find fresh tomatillos, you can substitute a can of tomatillos or diced tomatoes, drained, but don't leave them out; they give the soup acidity and texture. The broth and chicken can be made a day ahead and refrigerated separately before proceeding. However, shred the chicken while it's still warm. Chopped avocado, sliced jalapenos, crumbled queso fresco, and fried tortilla strips make bright and delicious garnishes for the soup. Mexican Chicken Soup With Tomatillos And Hominy Ingredients: 6 cups water 4 cups low or no-sodium chicken broth 2 large white onions, 1 peeled and quartered, 1 chopped 1 bunch cilantro, stems and leaves separated 2 whole dried ancho or pasilla chilies, stemmed, seed...

Cheryle Finley: Appliances help keep kitchen cool while making wonderful dinners - Joplin Globe

Image
Sometimes we have time to spend in the kitchen, trying a new recipe or fixing a dessert that takes more time than usual. There are also times when time is short but the family needs to eat. Also, we usually don't like being in a hot kitchen. There are several ways to enjoy a family meal with just a little planning. We can start by planning a menu. Think to the week ahead and plan around one meat. Brown a big batch of ground beef and store it in the refrigerator, then just heat it in the microwave. Think tacos, quesadilla, cheeseburger macaroni and cheese. Roast, grill or boil a chicken for a chef salad or tomatoes stuffed with chicken salad. Skip the chicken cooking and opt for a store-bought rotisserie chicken that will usually provide a couple of different meals. The ground beef and chicken can also be made into freezer-friendly casseroles of tetrazzini, lasagna, or chicken and noodles. While you are making casseroles, go ahead and make a double batch. You will find most...

'The Pioneer Woman' Ree Drummond Weighs in on Whether You Can Really 'Steal' Recipes - Showbiz Cheat Sheet

Image
The Pioneer Woman star Ree Drummond is the queen of comfort food. Her recipes are so popular they’re featured on the Food Network and she’s regularly called on to provide her expertise on daytime talk shows. One question Drummond recently tackled is whether it’s possible to steal someone’s recipe. Here’s what The Pioneer Woman star had to say. Ree Drummond’s trick for developing new recipes Ree Drummond, Maria Shriver and Hoda Kotb | Tyler Essary/NBC/NBCU Photo Bank via Getty Images Drummond never seems to come up short when it’s time to create brand-new recipes.

Caldo tlalpeño is the easy-to-make Mexican soup that should be a staple in every home - Salon

Image
When it comes to Mexican soups, you're likely familiar with common dinner menu items like black bean soup or tortilla soup, both of which we have recipes for here at Salon Food. But you may not yet know a more traditional dish, which also just happens to be my family's favorite:  caldo tlalpeño .  Looking back, I can't believe how lucky I was to have grown up on caldo tlalpeño instead of chicken and noodle soup. The hearty flavor of this chicken and vegetable dish is achieved by slow-cooking chick peas and chipotle peppers in chicken stock. The creamy and nutty taste of the chick peas perfectly cuts the spicy and smoky flavor of the chipotle chiles, and the result is one truly bold flavor pairing.  Advertisement: My abuela  immigrated from Mérida, the capital city of the Mexican state of Yucatán, to the U.S. in high school. The caldo she prepared for me growing up contains carrots and onions. It's similar to the one you'll find on ...

Coronavirus forces changes to Ramadan for Mid-Michigan Muslims - ABC 12 News

Image
GENESEE COUNTY (WJRT) (04/23/2020) - Thursday night marks the beginning of Ramadan, the holy month of fasting, for many Muslims. "It's really just the month that we're supposed to spiritually be more connected. We fast from sun up until sun down, and the idea is that you're teaching your body discipline," Muna Jondy said. Jondy is a spokesperson for the Flint Islamic Center. Each evening is typically marked with communal gatherings for prayer and breaking fast with family and friends, known as iftar. However, due to the coronavirus, those sacred traditions will be off the table for the time being, forcing the Muslim community in Mid-Michigan to adapt. "Eating iftar, one of the things that we do is we invite our friends over to break fast together. Nobody's going to be doing that, and now it's literally just nuclear families. I just don't know how long it's going to be before we're like, 'Wow! This really does stink,'" Jo...

Carla Hall is here to help you get over your cooking-at-home slump - WICZ

Image
By Sandra Gonzalez, CNN Celebrity chef Carla Hall feels what everyone spending most of their time at home amid the coronavirus pandemic is feeling. She wants to see her family. She wants to go to a movie. She wants to go to the theater. And when her husband showed up the other day with a package of toilet paper and a bag of flour, after she'd tried unsuccessfully to find it online, she was elated. "I was like, 'Oh, thank God!" she recalled to CNN. Hall, a former host on daytime talk show "The Chew" and a two-time "Top Chef" contestant who was quick to become a fan favorite, has been "staying at home" at her home in Washington, D.C., a place she admitted she doesn't spend much extended time when she's juggling projects and appearances. But between seeing her neighbors more than ever and experimenting with her air fryer and zoodle maker ("I think I used that thing once"), she's managed to stay quite busy. (She rec...

Soup really is m'mm-m'mm good - Chattanooga Times Free Press

Image
A great seafood soup begins with a good seafood broth. You can buy it, but it's so easy to make one yourself. All you need is chicken broth, which I always keep on hand, and shrimp with shells on it. Just remove the shrimp shells, drop them in the broth and cook. After a few minutes, you have a superb, fresh-tasting (because it's freshly made) seafood broth. Along with the usual soup suspects — onions, garlic, carrots, celery and a single bay leaf — I added a can of fire-roasted tomatoes for a mahogany-like depth. Only at the last minute or two did I add the shellfish: the peeled shrimp, which I had chopped, some langostinos, which I had also chopped, and a handful of clams. It helped that we happened to have the langostinos in the freezer the first time I made the soup. The second time, I used frozen bay scallops. Either way, it was terrific. Admittedly, the shellfish soup recipe is a little complicated, so for my next soup I made what has to be the world's easiest soup...
