I’m very glad that I went back to cooking finally.  The udon noodles and bread were very good but I needed something more substantial and special.  I felt pretty bad for my busy husband too, though he would gladly eat pasta with broccoli and peas/beans every day.  A broccoli tofu sandwish would make a good snack for him.  After I made the first comeback soup - potato quinoa chowder, he commented, “now that’s something that smells really homemade.”  I was very happy to hear that.  I got the recipe from Laura Jesser’s “Eden in the Kitchen”.  Do check out Laura’s blog which is full of wonderful photos and great recipes.
The only thing I did differently is to use bok choy instead of cooked kale and I didn’t puree half of the soup at all.  I love the soft little chunks of potatoes in the chowder.
