A vegetable soup recipe featured in the NY Times Dining and Wine section. Flavors: tomatoes, butter, root vegetables, and a hint of orange. I haven't made this yet, but it sounds interesting (and NY Times articles can only be accessed for free for a brief period of time).

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.

This recipe was easy to follow and the results were delicious! I made a few substitutions, using brown rice instead of white and adding some extra vegetables. It was a great way to use up leftover chicken.
