What's for Dinner, Sat., Feb. 18. 2023 [View all]
Changed my cannellini-meatball-minestrone today with a little coaching from the RG. I liked this tip; worked out well.
He told me to drain some of the liquid from the soup and add beef broth to it after I sauteed a little more onion in better in a pan. Into this new broth base, I added more herbs (thyme, mostly) and then some Better than Bouillon beef (1 tsp) and a tsp of tomato paste. Then I tasted it: voila, all new, more flavorful taste.
Put my vegetables into the broth and brought it to a boil. Added the meatballs and escarole, plus a generous sprinkling of Parmesan for the top.
Salad made with chopped Romaine. Cherry tomatoes, green pepper, red onion, celery, and cucumber. I added more Gorgonzola to the salad dressing, topped it with chopped bacon and Chinese noodles.
Dessert: tapioca pudding with green grapes. Decaf coffee, French roast.
