My wife and I came up with this recipe together on my most recent birthday. I came up with the recipe foundation, but the adjustments she made as she cooked are definitely the key to making this the best I've ever had. It makes me look forward to birthdays again.
We often have this soup on Sunday afternoons in the winter. It is quick and easy, hearty and filling. Serve it with fresh hot homemade biscuits or fresh bread. Yumm. Real comfort food.
Chorizo and fish work so well together. Make sure you use the best-quality chorizo you can find; it comes in spicy and sweet varieties, but I tend to always go for the spicy one! The pangrattato sprinkled on top adds a lovely crunchiness to the soup and is well worth the little bit of extra effort.
Inspired by the rustic and time-consuming French classic, our cassoulet, made with leftover turkey or chicken and canned beans, makes a simple, hearty supper.
A perennial party favorite, cocktail sausages become extra special with a jerk-seasoned pineapple glaze. Make them as hot (or not) as you like with bottled hot pepper sauce.
Cut the sprouts lengthwise to keep their shape, about four slices per sprout. They'll be thin enough to get a deep caramelized sear quickly but still keep a good crunch.
In our area we are able to camp almost all year-round. My family invented this recipe using ingredients we all love so we could enjoy them on the campfire. This hearty meal tastes so good after a full day of outdoor activities. —Janet Danilow, Winkleman, Arizona
Grilling one of my family's favorite ways of cooking. This recipe contains many different ingredients but they come together quickly.— Alaina Showalter, Clover, South Carolina
