Wow, that sounds amazing! I've never heard of adding cottage cheese to soup. I just made chicken soup (I'm sick as a dogOriginally Posted by Trillcat
I am thinking of going with soup, homemade of course. I make this killer stuff, I call it swamp soup because it ends up looking like, well, swamp dedge. I boil down a chicken with the usual stock ingredients, a bit of carrot, onion, celery and let that sloooooow simer till the meat falls off the bone. After taking the chicken out and picking off the meat I put the bones back in and simmer some more till it is reduced a bit, strain the broth, then add the chicken meat, spinach, canned chopped tomatoes, fresh mushrooms (I sautee them first) more onions (also sauteed) and about a truck load of garlic and oregano. Right before serving I stir in a good dollop of cottage cheese, large curd (If you add that while it is cooking it melts and sticks to the pan) Some good crunchy buttered bread on the side to dunk, YUM!
Its similar but not quite to Italian wedding soup, (before adding the cheese) just no meatballs.
