Vegetable Soup

Please include a recipe for vegetable soup! --Linda
Hi Linda, I’ve got a  great vegetable soup for you: my Hearty Minestrone is chockful of vegetables like cabbage, carrots, and tomatoes, along with ground beef. If you’d like a meatless soup, you can certainly omit the beef and add some more kidney beans. Enjoy!

    I am a caramel addict. Recently I came across caramel rolls, much like cinnamon rolls. Is there a recipe that is easy to make? BTW - I make your chunky potato soup ALL the time and everyone loves it! Blessings, Jenifer

    How do I make cookies in Nevada??! I live in what is considered high altitude (4200-4300 ft above sea level) and can't seem to get my cookies to rise at all. Quite frankly, I couldn't do it in Oregon either. I have fresh baking powder and baking soda, and the same cookie recipe my family has been using for generations. I just can't get them to rise. Great for hockey pucks though!

    Hi Betty,

    I have tried so many cookie recipes, but nothing turns out good. I love gingersnaps. Can you suggest some recipe that I can make?

    Hi Grandma, My mom made beautiful cakes, and she'd decorate them with adorable curls of chocolate. She showed me how to do it once, but I’ve forgotten. How do you make those chocolate curls my mom used to decorate her cakes? --Anna

    I experienced pumpkin ravioli for the first time this Thanksgiving, served with a white sauce with hazelnut liquor. The chef would not share the recipe for the sauce. Any thoughts? --Elsie
