I am linking up today over at Kellys Korner for "Show us your Life Friday"
Broccoli Soup
adapted from Comfy in the Kitchen
Don't you love my new dishes? They are so awesome! Anyway, this was one of two soups I made for New Year's Eve and it was fabulous even though I did not follow directions ;-) One of the great things were the noodles that you add to it - it really add some "stick to your gut" fullness to this soup. So, what did I do wrong? I didn't cook the broccoli first - had I done that, I could have then cut the broccoli into small pieces like you were supposed to - it's kind of hard to cut frozen broccoli pieces! I also had probably twice as many noodles as it called for as well. I ate this for lunch throughout the following week and it only got better as it was re-heated!
