Do you want to know what instant regret tastes like? Canned soup. It's not something I ever make, but we seem to always have some in the house because my husband can't pass up a good deal if he sees one. I think he bought a case of Campbell's Chicken Noodle last winter when it was on special and it's been sitting in our pantry untouched since then. Fast forward to last week when we were battling Covid and our appetites started to return, but the energy for cooking was still lagging, my daughter and I thought maybe we'd like some soup, so I pulled out the bargain priced soup for a quickly made meal. "Why does this taste like a mouthful of salt!?" Allison complained as she dumped her bowl into the trash. Most people get upset about losing their taste while battling Covid, but at that point, we were both wondering why we hadn't gotten so lucky. I ended up pulling up this Chicken & Cauliflower Soup from Golden Blossom Honey to make up for the canned mistake we never should have made in the first place.
I know it's easy to just pop a top off a can of soup when that's about all the energy you have when you aren't feeling well, but honestly, this soup didn't take that much more effort than the canned variety. It not only tastes 1000x better, but offers way more nutrition for a healing body as well. Thankfully we're all cleared up from the covid cooties now, but I'll still be keeping this recipe on hand for quick lunch and dinner options for the remainder of the winter and spring months. Because who needs a can of regret when you can have a belly full of this soup instead?
Ingredients
1 medium onion, chopped
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons GOLDEN BLOSSOM HONEY

Have you battled Covid this season?
I've no idea why they always put so much salt in all that canned shit, it is nasty. I've recently discovered that they put a bit of sugar in vegeta, so that sunk my ships and sails.
ReplyDeleteAre you all recovered from Covid? No casulties? LOL
Is there sugar in vegeta? I never even looked!
DeleteWe're over Covid, but the cough is still here and hanging on for dear life. It doesn't matter what I do, I cannot shake it. It's lessening in frequency, but still sending me into fits a few times a day. Allison too, but hers seems to be clearing up much faster than mine. Jason is all better now, thankfully!
I am not a big fan of canned soup either. Some are better then others but over all I prefer home made. I make a chicken soup I call Grandmas Shortcut of Alicia'a Quick & Dirty Chicken Soup. This recipe sounds SO good!

Homemade chicken soup is the best. Your recipe is probably the best chicken soup!
DeleteThat sounds good.
ReplyDeleteThankfully I haven't had Covid in a couple of years. But in the last year I've had The Flu, Stomach flu, Norovirus, and a cold. lol
Ooof, I don't know what's worse. All of those or a round of Covid. You poor thing!
DeleteGracias por la receta. se ve muy rica. Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
DeleteYeah, the canned stuff is blah. Sounds much better this way. I hand ny covid cooties back in December lol
ReplyDeleteThe first time I had Covid it came on our NY trip. It wasn't even a thing until 7 months later that we were hearing about it, but I got sooo sick then with the exact same Covid symptoms. They couldn't figure out what was wrong with me, of course because Covid wasn't heard of quite yet, but now I know what kept me bedridden for a month back then. Makes me really not want to go back to NY!
DeleteIncredibly, I've never been ill with Covid! But this soup looks delicious for those who are recovering from an illness, especially covid, where you lose your sense of taste! Have a nice week!
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky! Idk how I've gotten it twice, but that's enough for me for this lifetime!
DeleteYummy. Thinking of you.

Thank you! ♥
DeleteSounds so good! Yum!
ReplyDeleteI actually find myself craving this a lot since the first time we've made it!
DeleteOh no! I haven’t heard of much Covid lately. We had it once, in June 2022 and that’s been it for us.
ReplyDeleteMy entire family, extended too, has had it over the last few months. Hopefully it just stays here in Indiana and doesn't hit the Ohio border then so you can stay safe!
