Loosely followed this recipe, minus the pork, and minus the gochujang (since I didn’t have any).

A new, cold day, a new, cold-weather soup. We found this quick reel recipe that I made note of and created for a cozy meal this evening.

We loved the roasted garlicky, feta flavored broccoli soup!

Roasted Feta Broccoli Soup
(Can also be made with tomato instead of broccoli!)

INGREDIENTS
1 8-oz chunk feta
4 cups broccoli florets
1 pound potatoes, peeled, chopped
1 onion, chopped
4-5 sprigs thyme
1 bulb garlic, top sliced off
1/2 tsp salt
1 box vegetable broth

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 400F. Line large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place feta, broccoli, potatoes, onion, thyme, and garlic on prepared sheet pan and season with olive oil & black pepper.

Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until vegetables are tender and feta is golden and melty.

Remove roasted garlic bulb and set aside until cool enough to handle.

Transfer roasted vegetables and feta into a blender. Carefully squeeze the garlic into the blender & add 1 box vegetable broth. Blend for 2 minutes, or until smooth & creamy.

My husband shared with me a recipe for a high protein “pasta”. It looked intriguing. We all loved it!

Our sauce jusy had salt, pepper and oregano. The chicken was cooked with leeks, and seasoned with salt and pepper.

We turned a huge harvest of our backyard golden raspberries into jam. And made enough to share. 🫶🏽

While the chunky butter left holes (I think) in the cakes, the cardamom quince jam center and smooth buttercream made us forget about the presentation.

Okay, so it doesn’t LOOK as good as it tastes. 😬
