I’ve been dying to make this dish. It’s such a great dish, perfect for those of you having cold weather and needing something that will warm you all the way through. So, I got tired of waiting for colder climate and made it anyway. We had a 13 F drop in temperature all the way from 88 F down to 75 F so we pretended we had a cold snap. I know it’s got chiles in it but these are poblano chiles and you will like it. I promise. Continue reading Chicken Poblano Chowder with Fried Tortilla Sticks and Goat Cheese Crumbles→
Well, temps in DFW are back in the 80s again. It’s so hard to get in a Fall mood when it’s 88 F outside. Now, granted it’s better than 100 F but let’s be realistic. It is November after all. I have all these soups, stews and braises I want to cook but the weather just isn’t cooperating. So, it’s grilling time. We broke out the cedar planks and did some salmon with a wonderful light salsa and those gorgeous homegrown pomegranates. To accompany the meal we grilled some gorgeous asparagus I found at the market. Pretty good dinner even if I say so myself. 😉 Continue reading Cedar Plank Salmon with Orange & Pomegranate Salsa Accompanied with Grilled Asparagus and Balsamic Vinaigrette→
And here is a post with NO CHILES! It finally got cold enough in DFW to have a hot bowl of soup. In fact, we got down to the upper 30s on Sunday and it warmed up into the lower 50s. Monday & Tuesday were the upper 30s and then into the mid 60s. That was it. In the meantime, while the US East Coast is getting hammered by Sandy and accompanying snow, we’re creeping back to the 80s with sunny skies. So, I’m glad I made the soup when we had the opportunity. 🙂 Looks pretty tasty doesn’t it? Continue reading Broccoli Cheese Soup→
