Tried and True, husband rated favorite. Few Ingredients and Quick to make.
A very hearty and warming soup my husband loved while stationed on the USS Independence. Since he was a Medic he was buddies with everyone and got the recipe from one of the cooks before he left. He held on to the recipe for years.
This recipe is SO GOOD! It makes ALOT! I usually freeze half for another meal. You can also use reduced-fat and low-sodium ingrediants.
Good, basic, savory dish. A bit salty for my taste but easy to make.
Delicious on a cold winter night with toasted bread and a tossed salad.
Steamed spinach, mashed potatoes, and oatmeal cookies would fit the rustic theme.
Ideal for a winter night. Traditional French Onion Soup uses beef broth, but my wife doesn't eat red meat, so I usually make it with chicken and vegetable stock.
This is the quintessential north Indian style chicken curry, with the onion and tomato based gravy. It is a simple home-style version, but the texture and bright appetizing color make it suitable for company as well.
