This week I am planning to move away from Ina Garten when it comes to my weekly Friday cooking. As of this moment, I am planning to make a vegetarian dish. Probably a soup. It seems like this time of year, my family enjoys having soup in the house on the weekends.
But the question remains….what soup?
The snow has come and gone! My house has about a foot of snow. The most that’s falling in one storm in quite some time. Working a full, regular day today. But I’m exhausted from all the clean-up and snow removal, both yesterday and this morning. At least I can take it easy at work and think about what I’ll be making this week.
So I know earlier in the week I posted how on Friday I was planning to switch things up a bit and make something out of the Gourmet Today cookbook. However, sometimes plans change and the weather in southern New England today calls for a hearty soup. So, I’m back to making an Ina recipe. I’ll be making Winter Minestrone & Garlic Bruschetta out of Foolproof. I can’t wait to try this recipe since I am a big fan of minestrone soups in general. They’re so hearty. Especially in the winter.
Now that the major holidays are behind us — at least for my family — I can focus on getting back into the swing of cooking Ina recipes each week.
Even though New Year’s is this week, my family was never really “big” on doing anything for the New Year. In normal times, we would go to my aunt and uncle’s house New Year’s Day, but that isn’t happening this year.
So, I decided I will cook something for them…but now what remains is the blog-age-old question:
What shall I make?
I hope everyone had a glorious Thanksgiving! My family and I appreciated the different style of celebrating that 2020 brought us. Unfortunately, I didn’t have a chance to cook any Ina recipes for Thanksgiving. I know, I’m as upset as you all are! But, I did cook something Saturday night for dinner, the post will come tomorrow!
And what’s different about this one is it is NOT an Ina recipe! Her recipes will return soon though…stay tuned, as always!
No, not the SNL skit.
This weekend I made one Ina recipe. A soup. It was wonderful and very Fall-themed. I will be sharing my review later this week! Stay tuned!!
It’s Friday?! How did that happen??
I’ve decided to take this week “off” from cooking. I plan to publish my next cookbook review over the weekend. Had a busy couple of days at home.
Post coming soon, probably Tuesday. But until then, here’s a sneak peek of what I used to make it!
What do you think I made? Leave your ideas in the comments below!
OMG! How is it Tuesday already?? This week is already flying by. I did not forget about the other recipes I need to write about. Hang in there, they’re on their way!!
This week, I will be cooking on Saturday instead of Friday. I still do not know what I plan to make. This week, I’m going to try to do more than one recipe. Again, I probably will not be doing dessert. However, I am toying with doing an appetizer recipe this week!
More to come, stay tuned!
