Simple Chicken Noodle Soup

Sometimes you just want a bowl of soup, and seeing I just made a roast chicken on Saturday (see previous post), I decided to use some of that chicken for this soup. If you are into making your own chicken stock, this would be an excellent time to use it, though to be honest, I cheated by using low-sodium chicken broth from the shops. If you are going with the “from the store” variety, make sure you get low or no sodium broth — always easier to add on your own than have too salty soup. Hearty and nourishing on this first day of February.

Whole Wheat Sourdough Dinner Rolls

So, I made these dinner rolls because I wanted to try something new with the sourdough starter. Turns out, the rolls are likely better than dinner itself. Crusty on the outside, light, a great chew and favor on the inside. Whole wheat and a little bit of brown sugar definitely up the flavor. Sort of like mini-baguettes. Would make a great sandwich too. I’m sold on these.

Rosemary Sea Salt Sourdough Artisan Bread

This recipe, in yeasted form vs sourdough, is by far the most viewed recipe on this here CSPS site. I’m not sure why exactly — the referrers are all from Pinterest, so I am guessing it’s just been shared to members who have large followings, and then saved a lot. So I decided to create a sourdough version of it as well, and I personally think that it is even better than the yeast version. Got a bit of tang, very rosemary, just the right amount of sea salt. It’s going to make some delicious paninis for dinner.

Wild Rice, Corn + Sprout Salad, with Hot Smoked Salmon

Winter Salad — although frankly, this is pretty good for a summer picnic too (no mayo!): Wild Rice, Corn + Sprout Salad, with Hot Smoked Salmon. Simple to put together, healthy and is a spectacular lunch. While I think that the smoked salmon is integral, I can see that without it, it would also be very nice (somehow, a totally different salad).

Greek Style Sheet Pan Meal:
Shrimp with Blistered Cherry Tomatoes, Olives + Feta

Trying something different for a “one pot” meal — or a one pan meal, as it were. And this was so easy to do. Shrimp with Blistered Cherry Tomatoes, Olives + Feta. Took just about 30 minutes and would be easy enough to double to feed a crowd. The shrimp were super flavorful and juicy, combined with the just-warm olives and feta, and the cherry toms bursting with juiciness. Definitely a repeat. You could likely also do this (in this short of a time) with small pieces of fish as well.
