Catching a cold
November 15th, 2008Yes, even yours truly gets sick sometimes. I think right now everyone and their Grandma’s catching the same cold.
So, what does The Zombieslayer do? Make soup, of course.
You remember how I was mentioning I go to the Farmer’s Market religiously now? Here’s the soup. I use the veggies that are left, throw them all in to some Organic chicken broth, add garlic, freshly ground black pepper, Vietnamese hot garlic sauce, leftover pasta, and stew it all together.
Hopefully it will turn out good. I’ll cook it another ten minutes then grab a bowl.

MAN I’m hungry now! That looks spectacular, Zombieslayer…..
p.s. get better quick! SEnding you virtual chicken soup.
well, the veggies should boost your immune system with all their vitamins and if that isn’t enough the hot sauce should kill any pathogens.
Bridget - Thanks. I took a long nap today and am already feeling better (and took 1500 mg of Vitamin C already).
Lime - I didn’t think of the hot sauce that way. I was thinking it would help me breath, but forgot that it does that too. Good call.
Good idea on the fresh veggie soup. And I’m sure it was fabulous.
Kathleen - ‘Twas. I didn’t even taste the first few bites but once that Vietnamese hot sauce kicked in, I could breath again and taste the food.
Soup is always a good way to use leftovers!
Hope you are feeling better soon
Glad you are eating that soup and not moi!
Tshsmom - Yeah, that’s one thing I’m learning - how to get rid of stuff before it spoils.
Miladysa - It actually didn’t turn out too badly. I fed some to another blogger today and he seemed to think it was ok.
Even if that soup ended up tasting terrible, I still bet it would have helped it was sooo beautiful.
Glad to hear you are feeling better now.
Ooooh, yum, hot Vietnamese sauce!!! I had Vietnamese on Saturday and I used it quite liberally. Of course, that’s my nature.
