I love these bean soup mixes but I had never seen the Cajun flavor before. I picked a couple of bags up and now the beans are soaking.

Smoked Sausage, Butternut Squash and Wild Rice Soup

butternut squash showed up in our CSA box, so i had to find a recipe that would meet with the husband’s “not a big fan of squash” needs.

when in doubt, add pork.

it’s delicious. this recipe is pretty damned excellent and recommendable.

Damn. I was never a big fan of squash when I was younger but I love it now. I also like it baked with some butter, brown sugar and cinnamon.

I love soup! It’s one of my favorite things to make. Most one pot meals are fun to make for me because they fit with my lazy cooking nature.

(and hey, Nesbittslimesoda, there’s a garlic soup recipe!)

1 T extra virgin olive oil
1 leek, sliced thin
1 quart chicken or vegetable stock

1 can cannellini beans, rinsed
1 large bunch rainbow chard, roughly chopped

1 cup frozen green peas
1 poblano pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
fresh grated Parmesan for serving
squeeze of lemon for serving
Roast the poblano pepper either over the flame on your stove (if you have a gas stove) or under the broiler until black and charred. Set aside to cool and then remove the seeds and chop.
Heat the olive oil over medium high heat in a large pot or dutch oven. Add the leek and cook for five minutes, until the leek is bright green and soft.
Add the stock and the pasta and bring to a simmer. Let cook for another five minutes and then add the sugar snap peas, chard, beans, salt and pepper. Simmer for only a couple of minutes before adding the roasted poblano pepper, peas and mint. Continue cooking until pasta is just tender.

When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand.
