Soups were the food focus for Art After Hours last night and our guests loved sampling the White Chili, the Black Bean Chili and the New Orleans Beef that I served with Garlic Herb Cheese Grits...(just like Grillades and Grits from New Orleans.) It was COLD and our hot soups were a hit!
AND the orders coming in on the website and through Consultants are hugely (is that a word?) soups and breads! I can't even count how many Creole File Gumbos have been shipped in January! Maybe people are stocking up on Gumbo for Super Bowl Parties and for Mardi Gras....I'm in love with my Gumbo too...and Jen eats a cup almost every day for lunch at The Crown!
Southwest Soup is the St. Jude product of the Month so those are really rolling out the door too! Someone asked me at The Crown yesterday...."Is the Southwest Soup really spicy?" Her husband doesn't like hot...hot foods! And the answer is NO! It has a little peppery heat but the combination of peppers is flavorful...not super hot! I sometimes put a little cooked thin spaghetti in....then it's so much like my mama's vegetable beef soup. Be sure and look at the Recipe Page on the website for Southwest Soup! It's FULL of good ideas! Keep those kettles of soup simmering...we are in for a long winter!
