Turkish Spinach & Lent il SoupMade by Kate Salomon

Recipe from Sundays at Moosewood Restaurant

Serves 6-8

1 cup dried lentils

5 cups vegetable stock or water (more if needed)

1 teaspoon salt

cup olive oil

2 cups chopped onions

3 garlic cloves, pressed

teaspoon cayenne

2 bay leaves

cup raw bulghur

cup chopped fresh parsley

2 cups chopped tomatoes

cup tomato paste

Pinch of dried rosemary (or to taste)

2 cups stemmed, cleaned & coarsely chopped fresh spinach

Chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Rinse the lentils. Bring them to a boil in the salted stock or water. Reduce the heat to simmer,

covered, for 40 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a heavy soup pot. Saut the onions until translucent. Add the

garlic, cayenne, bay leaves, and raw bulghur. Stir the mixture on medium heat until the

onions and bulghur are lightly browned.

Mix in the parsley and tomatoes. When the tomatoes begin to give up their juice, gently stir inthe tomato paste.

Pour the lentils and their liquid into the soup pot with the onions and bulghur. Simmer the

soup for 15 minutes. Add the rosemary, salt, and pepper to taste. If the lentils and bulghur

have absorbed too much liquid, add more stock, water, or tomato juice. Remove the bay leaves.

Just before serving, stir in the fresh spinach and let it wilt in the hot soup. Garnish with more

fresh parsley and serve with crusty bread.

Butternut Squash & Italian Sausage SoupMade by Nikki Townsley McCormick

Recipe from Emeril Lagassehttp://www.emerils.com/recipe/5557/Butternut-Squash-and-Italian-Sausage-Soup

Serves 4-6

1 large butternut squash, about 3 pounds, halved, seeds removed

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

teaspoon salt

Freshly ground black pepper

pound sweet Italian sausage, removed from casings

1 large onion, chopped

6 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage, plus 12 whole leaves*

1 teaspoon chopped fresh marjoram

6 cups light chicken broth1 teaspoon cider vinegar or lemon juice

cup heavy cream, or more to taste

2 tablespoons butter

Crme Fraiche*

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Lightly coat the squash halves with 1 teaspoon of the vegetable oil. Season the inside with salt

and pepper and place cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake until

very tender, about 45 minutes. When the squash is cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh

and reserve. Discard the peel.

In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, add the remaining vegetable oil and, when hot

but not smoking, add the sausage. Cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Add the onions

and cook, stirring, until the onions wilted and starting to caramelize, about 6 minutes. Add

the garlic, sage and marjoram, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the cooked squash and

chicken stock, stir well to combine, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for

30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

With a hand-held immersion blender, or in batches in a food processor or blender, puree the

soup. Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a clean saucepan. Add the cider vinegar and

stir to combine. Add the cream and adjust seasoning, to taste.

In a small saut pan, cook the butter over medium-high heat until it begins to turn brown

around the edges. Add the whole sage leaves and cook until crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer theleaves to paper towels to drain.

Serve the soup in bowls, garnished with the crispy sage leaves.

*Note from Nikki: I don't strain the soup (I like the bits) and I add crme fraiche instead of

fried sage to top.
