Potatoes and Chanterelles . Red Onion and Red Wine Soup


I could finally use the kitchen again. I needed to cook the Chanterelles that I almost put into Sundays mac and cheese. I decided with the Greens recipe for Potatoes and Chanterelles Baked in Cream (p. 210) . There is a note that a Red Onion and Red Wine Soup with Tomatoes and Thyme would pair well with the potatoes. (p. 106) The recommended wine was Pinot Noir. But really, fuck wine. It cost more than the whole damn dinner, that's probably my fault... it tasted fine.

I've been a bit concerned with nutrition and balance lately, for my health in general. But mostly since I've started lifting weights again and I'm trying to get a bit more bulkier.

I added Rainbow Chard, sauteed with olive oil and garlic, pecans and raisins, tossed in a splash of sherry vinegar.

And I cooked some Basmati rice. I'm going to try to post photos now, my food is a little ugly but oh well. I'll go retro with it so the old posts might get new photos soon.
