If Soup is Your Thing Like it is Mine...

Split Pea with Bacon and Potato Soup, garnished with homemade Sourdough Croutons and a dollop of grated cheddar!

Hi All,

There is nothing like a nice big, hot bowl of soup, especially in the winter!
I have always been a soup lover, and have become very fond of making them at home from scratch. I like the idea that I can invent or customize everything about a pot of soup, and still not screw it up! I may, or may not actually follow a recipe, that's part of the fun!

I have always been drawn to cooking in general. I really like to challenge myself and try new things! Then, there is that "instant gratification" that I get, when I see how much others are enjoying my creations!
I guess you can say it is somewhat of a selfish endeavor for me! Haha!

Lately my spatially challenged lifestyle has caused me to dial back a little on any fancy stuff, so I'm back to just some pretty basic ingredients in my kitchen concoctions.

This week, it was all about Split Pea soup!
The top picture is my maiden bowl of this "Main Dish" style soup! Hot, filling, and delicious!

As usual, it turned out Absolutely Marvelous!!

**If any of you think I should post more food related content, INCLUDING RECIPES, please let me know! I would LOVE to share ideas, as long as there is an interest! I know there are many others out there...

Anyway, Thanks for stopping by!
Happy Eating!
