two thumbs up for the amazon bean soup. It was really good and not that hard to make, although i did have to let it simmer for a time on sunday then "age" in the fridge two days till last night. I did not serve it in the breadbowl as advertised, but we had some delicious italian bread, toasted, on the side. here is a picture of it halfway made. After the squash, carrots, onions and garlic sauteed in olive oil, with some thai red pepper paste, i then added water and simmered till it got soft. Then, I pureed half of it, added the remaining chunky veggies, and added garbanzo beans. then it sat for 2 days in the fridge, and then I added a whole bunch of spinach till it was slightly wilted. yum-o-matic!!!!

We have stuck to our menu eating the salmon on sunday and the soft tacos on monday…more on those later.
