I got this recipe from Padma Laksmi's cookbook, Tangy Tart Hot & Sweet. Creamy broccoli soup--it sounded good! I put it on my to-make list for the week. But as I got out the ingredients to make it, I realized that it didn't have cheese in it. This was kind of upsetting. I guess it was really cheesy broccoli soup that I had my heart set on. So maybe I just wasn't in the right mindset to give this soup a fair chance.
I thought the soup turned out OK. It took longer than I thought it would, about an hour, and it tasted just like what you would expect--a creamy broccoli soup. Very simple! Ben liked it, but I don't think I would make it again. So I guess it is not exactly a "recipe in progress." More a recipe I have thrown overboard. It did get me thinking that I'd like to try a cheesy broccoli soup recipe though. And I got the chance to put my immersion blender to use, which is always fun.
Megan thinks this picture of the soup looks really gross. In reality, she said it just looked like a creamy broccoli soup and not like dog vomit. I don't know, I thought this picture looked enticing!

This brought to mind something Grammy used to make that we all (including Grammy) called "Dog Food". I wouldn't eat it - but everyone else loved it. I think it looked similar. tee hee
Ewww. What was it??
I want to know too. What is dog food?! This sounds like something that should be passed down!
