Product Description

A soothing, flavourful bowl of spicy chilli, rich gumbo, blissful bisque, or steaming chowder is always welcome at mealtime. And Sunday is the perfect day to enjoy it, when you've had a chance to slow down a bit after a busy week and spend a little time in the kitchen, preparing a heart-warming meal for friends and family. "Sunday Soup" features 60 recipes (one for each Sunday and then some!) that take advantage of the natural bounty each season brings. Fall blows in with windy days that are perfect for enjoying Tortilla Soup with Chicken, Lime and Smoked Chillies, while a rich Gulf Coast Shrimp Gumbo is best for staving off the winter cold.Welcome the bounty of spring vegetables with Dreamy Creamy Artichoke Soup. When it's summer and too hot to even consider turning on the stove, chill out with Icy Cucumber Soup with Smoked Salmon and Dill. No matter what the temperature is outside, you'll be satisfied inside all year long. Author Betty Rosbottom has also included a selection of Soup-er Sides - great side dishes that will turn your bowl into a full meal. Turkey Panini with White Cheddar and Cranberry Chutney perfectly complements the Fabulous Fall Roots Soup. Roasted Pear, Walnut and Feta Salad with Baby Greens is delicious on its own, but paired with Cream of Chicken and Fennel Soup, it reaches new flavour heights. No matter what the season, "Sunday Soup" will inspire you to pull out your stockpot and start cooking.

"Sunday Soup" by Betty Rosbottom
"Sunday Soup" is another "Mouthwatering" cookbook by Betty Rosbottom. Betty does a superb job by giving the reader so many wonderful recipes that you can use for entertaining or family dinners. Betty's directions are so well written that you know exactly what to do. The cookbook is very well organized according to each Season and she gives you a step by step process that is very easy to follow. She also has included wonderful accompaniments that go very well with her soups. I love the way Betty has organized her recipes by giving information on how many servings, prep time and sides that go well with her soups. She also has beautiful photographs of many of the soups in her cookbook. I always enjoy Betty's cookbooks because she is so decriptive in her writing and explains the directions so well that even the novice cook would not have any trouble making her recipes. I highly recommend "Sunday Soup"--it is a wonderful cookbook that you will enjoy througout the year!

Novice soup maker creates yummy soup
I am a novice soup maker, but with the Sunday Soup recipes I have created two of the tastiest soups I have ever had, (Cauliflower w/Crispy Prosciutto and Tomato & Fennel). I can't wait to serve the Tomato & Fennel at my next dinner party. The soups are categorized by seasons, which makes for easy shopping, and optimal tastiness. I do recommend owning an immersion blender for the recipes; I picked up the affordable Cuisinart SmartStick, and it works like a charm.
