crazy lady

I've not been feeling well for the last few days, so cooking is rather out, as i'm on a strict BRAT diet. Thus, instead of a recipe, I'm posting a funny little bit from the New Zealand radio guys Fletch and Vaughn instead.

enjoy the crazy awesomeness that kept me from remembering my sick stomach for the last hour or so. :D

Tuscan Soup

Here is an awesome soup recipe that could prob be easily made into a vegetarian version.
I had some spinach that needed used up, and I think adding tomatoes would be a nice touch as well, tho I didn't have any to try in it this time.
Ingredients:
6 c chicken broth
1 small onion, chopped
3.5 oz italian sausage
3 large potatoes, cubed
1 bunch fresh spinach, washed and chopped
1/4 c evaporated milk
1 bay leaf, crushed
1/4 tsp thyme
S&P to taste

Brown sausage and onion, drain. Place in a large pot, add stock and potatoes. Boil until potatoes are tender. Add spinach, bay leaf and thyme, continue boiling a few min till spinach is lightly cooked. Remove from heat and add milk, season to taste!

This makes a beautiful soup, and delicious too! I'm not a fan of cooked spinach normally, but this was awesome!

Just wanted to share with you one of my very favorite artists, Dave Genther. He does an awesome job, does he not?
