Dinner

Ratatouille Soup with Eggplant and Zucchini

Ratatouille soup makes six servings. I make it ahead of time for meals I want to serve as a side dish with other foods at different times. Eggplant and zucchini in the soup become tender in the tomato broth. A short blending period near the end of cooking adds pieces of vegetables to the soup (my favorite feature of this soup).

Creamy Mushroom Chicken Soup with Cremini Mushrooms

Cremini mushrooms, sometimes called baby bellas, are recommended for this soup recipe because they hold their shape and provide strong flavor in a creamy soup. Sauteing the mushrooms before adding them to the soup adds texture and flavor contrast to the shredded chicken and parsley topping (I particularly enjoy browned mushrooms).
