Basil Tomato Soup
I made this recipe because of the rave reviews it received, as well as because it was a request from a client/friend. I too tweaked it a bit, thank you so much for the wonderful recipe! I added half a white onion chopped and sauteed in olive oil with kosher salt and black pepper, I added that to the soup and let it simmer, I didn't add butter, I figured that the olive oil from the sautee would be good enough. I also didn't use heavy cream, I added about 3/4 cup of whole milk instead. Everybody is trying to lose weight ugh, oh well, it still came out absolutely wonderful. Rave reviews from my clientelle.

Chicken Fajita Marinade
My fajitas came nice and juicy! Cooked them on the gas grill, also sliced peppers and onions and put them in a foil pack with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Heated the tortillas on the grill too. Delish!!

Outback Onion Soup
I have made this recipe countless times and recommended it to many people. To keep onions from disintegrating, cut them thicker, and Simmer not Boil! To stop clumping of flour, incorporate some of the broth with flour paste in separate boil to thin out the paste, and strain out the onions and Whisk vigorously to incorporate; if need be use your stick blender to break up flour clumps. I have successfully made this soup with chicken/beef/vegetable broth and stock, a mixture of red/white/yellow onions, the stronger the onion flavor (i.e. White or Red) the bolder the flavor will be in the end. I have also been thinking of using this recipe with other veggies, like broccoli, cauliflower or asparagus, Whatever is in season at the farmer's market. (Potatoes would need less cook time to keep from becoming mashed potatoes.) Thank you so much for putting up this recipe!
