Attempting to revive the art of dinner conversation? Make something else. Pasta and chicken topped with creamy sauce and juicy tomatoes will only inspire one word:
This Buffalo-Chicken Macaroni and Cheese recipe contains sharp cheddar cheese, elbow macaroni, rotisserie chicken, pepper jack cheese, half-and-half and more.
This Texas Hold-Ums Mini Chipotle Beef Burgers with Warm Fire Roasted Garlic Ketchup recipe contains ground sirloin, rolls, brown sugar, extra-virgin olive oil, fire roasted tomatoes and more.
I love this soup. I like to have the vegetables cut medium it makes is hardier. But if you prefer smooth you can always chop smaller or puree. I also omit the bay leaf because I don't like bay leaf. I also use a ham hock from left over Easter or Christmas dinner.
