October 28th: Lentil, Barley and Sweet Potato Soup with Cheddar Cornbread Tops

Verdict:
Toss: soup & biscuits

Tonight I made the last two recipes I wanted to try out of October 2010's Today's Parent: Lentil, Barley and Sweet Potato Soup and Cheddar Cornbread Tops. Another vegetarian night, except I didn't have vegetable soup broth so I used chicken, but I didn't have enough of that, so I also used beef. I liked the soup but didn't love it, so I am tossing the recipe. Although the lentils were good, I still prefer my barley soup to be beef and barley. The biscuits were just okay. To be fair, I have a cold this week (sloppy wet on the mouth 2 year old kisses lead to colds) so my taste buds are not as sharp as I would like, but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't like the biscuits anyway. Maybe if they had more cheese in them. Olivia loved them; no surprise there. She's a bread girl. I am not.

Did you notice? I have learned how to make my links open a new browser window rather than navigate away from my blog page. Yay! I am writing HTML code. NO, I did not ask Greg. I read it on Moms Who Blog, a no longer active blogger site. I've become a bit of a blog follower in the last two months.
