I think many of the soups can be vegan if you use water instead of chicken stock, or use vegetable stocks. This one, Minestrone with Tomatoes and Rice, is great using water. I'll look in the cookbooks and see what I can come up with.
Oooh...now I am bookmarking this recipe! I love that soup...always get it at Olive Garden! I hope you have managed to dig ot from the blizzard! Ours was pretty...my first white Christmas...but was virtually gone by the next day! lol That's my kind of snow storm! Happy New Year to you and your family!...hugs...Debbie
This is a perfect soup for a damp and cold winter evening. A bowl of it by the fireside would really boost a flagging spirit. I hope you are having a great day. Blessings...Mary
this soup looks very warm & inviting! great for any cold day this time of year! Hope the blizzards are kind to you this year... I fear we will have more. ~Faythe @GMT~
I'm not a soup lover but that sure does look good! Over here, just enough of the snow is melted to make it not pretty any more. But now they say we may get more this weekend. Yikes! Spring please!

ReplyDeleteThe soup looks great! After experiencing the blizzard in New York City, I never want to see that amount of snow ever again.
ReplyDeleteOh yum! I am so in the mood to make more soups this time of year, January especially. Happy new year!
ReplyDeleteI love the name of your soup...hopefully it will be the only one with that name this winter.

ReplyDeleteWOW, you did get a lot of snow! Yummy soup for a cold day. I would love it but my hubby has trouble eating pasta and beans with his diabetes.
ReplyDeleteA comforting dish in a blizzard, for sure! Hope you've dug out by now!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
That soup looks like exactly what you would want when you walk in the house after shoveling snow for a couple of hours!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a soup lover but that sure does look good! Over here, just enough of the snow is melted to make it not pretty any more. But now they say we may get more this weekend. Yikes! Spring please!
ReplyDeletewow yummy! perfect for the cold winter day we are having here in Michigan.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard it called Blizzard Soup. But what's in a name?
