I made my hot and sour soup for dinner tonight in an effort to fight off this cold that seems intent on settling back in for another round. I used 8 cups of chicken broth, 2 eggs, firm tofu (rather than extra firm), and a little more of the ...

This recipe comes from my mother - it's a healthier take on broccoli cheddar soup. This version doesn't have any cream or milk, just a flavorful broth, lots of broccoli, and a little bit of cheese, which could be eliminated if you wanted it to be entirely dairy-free.

This is another variation of my usual chili recipe, this time using skirt steak instead of ground beef. The chunks of beef were a great addition, and something I'll definitely do again, but something about this bean combination was just a bit off, so I'll try something different next ...

This gumbo concoction is a conglomeration of many recipes out there on the web. It's a great use for leftover chicken, and could easily be adapted to use fresh chicken as well. We really enjoyed this and will be repeating it many times in the coming fall and ...
