{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} TOMATO FLORENTINE SOUP

 

Yet ANOTHER recipe that Charter won't let me send with link and photo.

Email me privately if you want the link.
TOMATO FLORENTINE SOUP
Ingredients
When cooking and a recipe has "Florentine" in its name there is your clue
that spinach is an ingredient.  Being spinach lovers, it was great that mama
and I thought about this soup last night. Mama felt bad with a cold and
hasn't have an appetite at all for several days, and our spying this soup
looking through the "Missouri to Maui" cookbook last night was a big a-ha!
moment for both of us.  The recipe dates from my finding it in a low-fat
cookbook I was using at the dorm 15 years ago.  I fell totally in love with
its rich tomato heartiness and made it often for myself then when visiting
the "Pals" in Florida on summer breaks from school. Everybody loves this
soup: it's a great dish whatever the season, guaranteed to piqué your
appetite.
Not a long prep or much cooking time really with this one; you'll be sitting
down to eat in less than an hour. Many of the ingredients are already in

your pantry and if you have a bag of fresh spinach, you won't even have to
get dressed and head to the grocery store (added bonus!). You must have the
spinach, however, for the leafy green flavor here and to Florentine the
dish. The pasta is a nice surprise in this soup and ensures that there is
something for everyone really: tomato soup lovers, pasta people, and spinach
fans. If, like me, you love all three things, you definitely have a
win-win-win here! I baked Skillet Cornbread to enjoy with this tonight
though crackers work too; whatever you choose on the side, the soup results
will have you thinking of a good bowl of minestrone minus any beans.
The soup base comes from canned crushed tomatoes and tomato paste, chicken
broth, and chopped onion and it hits the right note for allowing the pasta
and the spinach to star here.  Do chop the onions very small; you want them
for flavor, not for showing off.  There is no need to cook this too long;
the broth is thin and once the pasta cooks, you can add the spinach, and
turn it off. I enjoy this best while it is still hot, the spinach just
wilted and tender. A healthy tablespoon of freshly grated Parmesan in each
serving is the only garnish; don't skip it!  All done and the soup's ON!
Tomato Florentine Soup
Ingredients
1 Tbsp. cooking oil

1 medium onion, chopped
1-(1 lb. can) crushed tomatoes
1-(32 oz.) box chicken broth
2 Tbsp. tomato paste
3/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. dried Italian seasoning
4 oz. seashell pasta
2 cups packed fresh baby spinach leaves, stemmed
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated, for garnish

Directions
In 4-qt stockpot, add oil and heat then sauté the onion. Add the tomatoes,
broth, tomato paste, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, stir well to
blend. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Add the pasta, cover,
cook medium-low for 8-10 minutes until the pasta is tender. Add spinach
leaves and simmer 1-2 minutes or until the pasta is al dente and the spinach
wilted. Ladle soup into bowls and top each with the freshly grated Parmesan.
Serve immediately, while hot.

{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} BLT in a Bowl

 

Today my only commitment is my weekly Optimist meeting, so I plan on doing some mending this afternoon.  If Charter will ever get all my channels loaded (I got a new receiver yesterday), I’ll set my shows for taping.  The box has been installed since 6 last night and so far, the shows are only available up until about 7 tonight.  SIGH!  Always something.

My classmates from high school and I met at a mega-buffet yesterday for our monthly get-together and it was really nice.  We just keep expanding.  There were about 25 of us yesterday.  Kinda nice, keeping up and catching up on their lives.

It’s going to be a dry scorcher here today.  Our weather man usually says, get your umbrella’s ready.  Today he said to be sure to use our sunscreen.  LOL  You all have a glorious day.  I’ll see you tomorrow.  Jodi

{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} Red, White, and Blue Potato Salad

 

Red, White, and Blue Potato Salad

http://www.copykat.com/2010/08/01/sweet-tomatoes-red-white-and-blue-potato-salad/ 

Potato salad is an easy, classic side dish that can be found on dinner and lunch tables everywhere. Make your potato salad stand out this weekend with the Homemade Sweet Tomatoes Red, White, and Blue Potato Salad recipe. Made with rich blue cheese, and fresh red potatoes, this recipe is much different than your typical mayonnaise and dill potato salad. With only four ingredients, you can have a new, refreshing potato salad. Don't bring another boring potato salad to the picnic, bring the Homemade Sweet Tomatoes Red, White, and Blue Potato Salad, and make it a meal to remember.

Serves: 8-10

Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Cooking Time: 10 minutes

This potato salad is very flavorful!

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds of small red potatoes (use the new potatoes if you can find them, they are smaller than a golf ball)

1/4 cup chopped white onion

1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese

1/2 cup mayonnaise

 

Instructions

Wash potatoes, and cut them in half, you want to cut the into bite sized pieces, place into a pot, add enough water to cover the potatoes and places over medium high heat to boil. When the potatoes have cooked fully, you can pierce them with a fork, and the fork goes through the potato. Place potatoes in the refrigerator to cool. Once the potatoes have cooled combine them the chopped white onions, crumbled blue cheese, and mayonnaise, stir well. Season to taste.

Some additions that I would suggest to make to this recipe would be to add a little crisped cooked bacon. If you had some fresh herbs those would be fantastic to sprinkle in. Do you have any special or unusual add-in's that you like to add into your potato salad?
