Turns out there is a month for everything now. You may be aware of the more advertised ones…African-American History Month, Women’s History Month & Breast Cancer Awareness Month but did you know that January is National Soup Month? Before last week, neither did I. In honor of this we will try to post some of our favorite soup recipes, along with other recipes, throughout this month.
1/3 cup Olive Oil
2 medium Onions Diced
3 Cloves Garlic
1 15 oz Can Tomatoes with juices
10 Cups Chicken Broth
Tortilla Chips
Cilantro Chopped
2 Limes
Grated Cheese
* Optional Add Shredded Chicken (see below)
Heat oil in cooker, and then add onions and garlic cloves. Sauté them until they become aromatic. Remove from cooker and puree with tomatoes in blender or food processor until smooth. (or add tomatoes and use the L’EQUIP stick blender) Return to cooker and add broth. Heat to boiling. Bring up to high pressure, reduce heat and cook 10 minutes. Release pressure and remove the lid. Add cilantro and salt to taste. Place cheese and tortilla chips in individual soup bowls and pour hot soup on top. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
*If adding chicken, add two uncooked chicken breast to the soup when you add the broth. Cook as normal. Remove the chicken breast while it is hot and shred in the Bosch mixer using the wire whisk. Return the shredded chicken immediately to the soup.

We are making some changes to this blog. This blog was created by L’EQUIP and Chandani had been posting when she was able to. However, we decided to make some changes to this blog. We will be including some more of our employees in the blog and they’ll be able to post some of their favorite recipes. Eventually we’ll have them introduce themselves so you can get to know them better. Also, a lot of the recipes we will be highlighting will come from our Sensible Cooking cookbook that can be purchased here. We would also love to hear feedback from all of you on whether you tried these recipes or not, and if so, how it turned out, whether you liked it or if you would make it again.
If you have any requests for recipes that you’d like us to post about please feel free to contact us.

I am back from vacation, well not exactly vacation. It is bit confusing. Let me explain. It was supposed to be vacation but turned out to be one from hell. First the flight that was supposed to land around 11:00 pm landed around 2:00 am, then another 2 hours in plane due to bad weather. Finally made it out of plane guess what, everything coming into the airport was blocked. That wasn’t the worst part of all. Read the rest of this entry »
