Isn't it funny? Your pesto crisps looked so good I was ready to make..now:) Thank you for your honest critique!! Your soup..and crackers are just beautiful.. I too love soups for lunch:)
Lorraine, Me too ~ Same Same. I love soup all year round... some in my family are not of the same mind set about this. (So I enjoy it for lunch on my own ~ a happy compromise!) xo
Monique, I must thank you again for sharing so many fabulous recipes, this one especially 'clicked' ~ it's the way I cook (and the cheese rinds truly help to add additional flavor.)
The 'crisps' ~ yes, a disappointment. Before I tasted them I snapped the shot . . . the question then was to post it with our impression of them or not. Maybe the recipe could be tweaked because I liked the idea of the ingredients.
Madonna, I just love the shape and texture of gemelli too. I don't know, there was something about the texture of the crisps that just didn't do it for us, very strange ~ maybe the recipe could be tweaked using a little more flour, they were kind of like stale frico.
I'm so happy you like the raspberry cheesecake ice cream!
AMI, thank you for stopping by and for such a nice comment. :)
Colette, yes ~ our weather has been a little fickle
Hi Linda, I always hesitate posting about Monique's recipes, she sets a pretty high bar with all of her talent and her gorgeous pictures.
Debbie, I'm so glad you tried it too! I like that the recipe is so versatile; any kind of beans or other veggies can be substituted with no problem ~ I love that.
Such a beautiful soup, what gorgeous color and healthy too! I was all set for those pesto crisps too, they look beautiful... perfect to float instead :)

Hi and welcome! I'm a long-time cook and tend to improvise often, adjusting recipes to my own taste. Usually I'll describe how I put the dish together so you can make it the way you like it.
I have cataloged some of the recipes in a printable format on my recipe blog, Once Upon a Plate ~ the recipes. Please LEFT-MOUSE click HEREif you would like to see what is available there.
Thank you so much for stopping by, and for any comments you would like to share. I read and appreciate every one! :)
The soup really does look delicious! I tried a new soup recipe recently even though it was hot. A little cooler now but I like soup year round.

Thank you for stopping by ladies!
I love the look of your soup. Earlier I made pasta pesto with gemelli and I loved their texture. I will have to try your soup.
ReplyDeleteThe crackers look wonderful I can’t believe they are meh – maybe a smear of goat cheese????
I made your Raspberry Cheesecake Ice Cream. Oh my goodness, I am in love. Thank you, thank you , thank you.
Mari, this looks delicious and right up our alley! Adding it to my recipes that MUST be tried! Thanks!

This was very good, and I'll let Monique know. I used mini penne pasta, and didn't have any spinach. Glad you shared the recipe! xo
