On a Cold, Winter Morning...

Is it a Soup Day?

The thermometers all say the outside temperature is in the upper teens. An excellent day to prepare soup for supper.

Yesterday we bought some beautiful leeks from Quebec. One beauty is now in the soup pot in a Colcannon Soup.

Recipe:

• 1 onion, diced
• 4 T butter
• Melt the butter in a soup pot. Add the onion and onion. Saute until soft. 
• Dice
• 4 med. potatoes
• Add to soup pot. Cook for 5 minutes 
• While that is cooking, thinly slice 
• 1 C cabbage
• 1 C kale after removing the stems
• Add 
• 3 C vegetable stock 
• Bring to a boil. 
• Add the cabbage and the kale
• Reduce the heat. Cook for 15 - 20 minutes.
• With an immersion blender, puree. 
• Now your soup can be left on the stove until it is time to heat for supper.
• Heat until warm. Add
• 1 C milk. 
• Heat but do not boil. 

PS:

• I am planning on using 
• 0.5 C Greek yogurt 
• 0.5 C cream
