Delicious

I made this soup yesterday.  I like tomatoes, I like making soups cause it's easy, I'm trying to like kale.  I love rosemary.  It seemed tasty.

I make soups in my rice cooker because it seems easier to me and I don't have to worry about if it's set at the right temperature or if I'm burning it.  It doesn't pop to tell me when it's done, but I just think of it as a crock pot kind of.

So to start, I put the onions and garlic and olive oil in the rice cooker and let them cook awhile.  It smelled great.  Who doesn't love cooked onions?  Well, probably lots of people, but I think they're one of the most delicious things in the world.  Then I added some white wine and the rosemary & thyme.  Oh my.  It was the most delicious thing I have ever smelled in my life.  It took a lot of self control to not stand there with a fork eating the wine soaked onions out of the rice cooker.

I did finish making the soup, and it was amazing.  So good.  I recommend it.  Especially if you're going to have guests over, your house will smell divine.

Slice of Life: Day 40.

I made the lentils again on Sunday, because they were so delicious to eat all last week.  I get on food kicks, and eat the same thing for a few weeks until I get sick of it.  Right now, it's lentils.

This batch turned out way way way better.  I give most of the credit to this nifty broth I found.  I'm glad someone else did all the work for me to make it taste good.

Slice of life: day 5.

Since I don't like cooking, I tend to get on food kicks.  I also like to make it as easy as possible for myself to eat dinner.

So here is dinner for the next week: sweet potato, onion, red pepper, eggplant and zucchini.  Splashed with white wine, ready to be broiled with some olive oil and eaten.  Yum yum.

After slicing it all up, I learned eggplant shouldn't be sliced until you want to eat it.  Oops.  Hopefully freezing will stop the browning process.  I'll let you know how it goes.
