Souperlla

I like to think that I'm the Cinderella of soups. I can pretty much throw anything in a pot and make it taste good. Thanks Mamaw! Although I don't recommend making my chewli recipe. It started out so well and then I added chipotle sauce and turned it into a sweet and smokey concoction. You get chewli when you start out making a stew, but it looks more like chili. Last week I was bored with dinner and feeling very Italian. I decided to take a stab at Italian wedding soup. I have never had this creation until last year. I thought it was made up. I promise I really am Italian. I'm not knocking Progresso because I'm head over heels for their lentil soup, but their version of the wedding soup was like a merky, slimy disaster. I knew what it looked like to some extent, but decided to consult Giada De Laurentiis aka "the fungia/faccia" for some help. I'm not one to follow recipes when it comes to entrees and such. I'm very much a free spirit in the kitchen. I got the gist of what it's supposed to have in it and made some twists along the way. In the end FAB! It came out so good and it's such a quick cook. Two things that are essential when it's mid week and you don't know to make for dinner.
