Soup with a twist and a secret ingredient…I LOVE secret ingredients! I’ve never heard of BBQ Chicken Soup until I had it at SODO Kitchen, a lovely restaurant located in the Seattle Starbucks Headquarters building. The food is fresh from local Farmers and the staff is lovely! The Catering Manager was nice enough to share this recipe…

Slow Cooker Sausage, Mushroom and Orzo Soup
Spring is in the air in Seattle (well as much as Spring can ever be in the air in Seattle), so I thought I’d get soup out of my system until fall! This can be prepared stove top or slow cooker. Slow cooker works a little better because the sausage has time to marry with the…
Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup
I love secret ingredients! Something that makes a recipe really different and stand out. The secret to this soup is… a bottle of beer! Beer instead of broth, now that’s my kind of recipe! (especially if you throw this together in the morning and take a little taster before dumping it in the pot..who doesn’t like…
Top Fab 4 Fall Soups!
The top 4 favorite soups of the last year!
Chicken and Wild Rice Soup
I know, another soup recipe! But I got a hankerin’ for some soup. It’s fall and we had a longer than normal summer and I’m ready for winter food! I’ve been making this soup for years, it’s adapted from an old Cooking Light recipe. ( FYI: old Cooking Light recipes are the bomb…new ones?… not so much). The…
Clean Eating Soup!
“Clean Eating Soup” – Okay, so the name doesn’t roll off the tongue like say…’Succulent Stuffed Pork Chops smothered in a decadent demi-glaze’, but sometimes (mostly on Sundays after a weekend of really good-bad food), you have to do something healthy for yourself and I do believe this soup may be the ticket! I was given…
Slow Cooker Bolognese Sauce
Maybe I should change the name of my blog to risataspotola.com? That’s laughingspatula.com in Italian! (that google translator feature really works! 🙂 This sauce was so rich and flavorful. With only a few ingredients and your trusty slow cooker you can make a big old batch of some of the most tasty Bolognese I…
Slow Cooker Pork Posole
Must be winter in Seattle! Everything I post latley is hot and in a bowl! Posole is a hearty stew from Mexico. Traditional accompaniments include chopped lettuce, cilantro and lime, but a dolop of sour cream would’nt hurt either. An unusual ingredient in this dish is hominy. Hominy is corn that has been processed to remove the…
Stewfato (Chicken Stew)
A simple to prepare Italian chicken stew with a middle eastern flare…huh? Italian and mid-eastern? Crazy Kathi has lost her foodie mind! I’m not sure how they both work, but they just do! Stewfato is an Italian name but the couscous, a slap of cinnamon and some crumbled feta are definitely mid eastern! Just take…
Gnocchi, Sausage and Spinach Soup
This Gnocchi Sausage Soup will quickly become your fave soup! We started calling this ‘shut up soup’, because we took one bite and said “Oh shut up!, that is so good!”. I am a soupateer, a soup savant, a master of the broth!….(you could say, I love soup 🙂 and this soup is a 5 spoon…
Quick Chicken and Corn Chowder
Ahhhhh, just in time for the wet weather here in Seattle! This is so easy and so darn good. I was so glad the photo came out, ’cause I just ate the last bowl for lunch! Use a cooked rotisserie chicken from your local mega mart to make it even easier to prepare. Top with…
Crockpot Turkey Chili with Sweet Potatoes
Great start on a Sunday morning when you know you won’t feel like cookin’ on Sunday evening! The sweet potatoes add a punch of flavor but can be excluded if you prefer. Chili is a dumping ground for your fridge…if you’ve got some carrots, zucchini or most any other vegetable that has seen better days…
Tortilla Soup
Tortilla Soup! A yummy take on an old classic. This recipe truly is the BEST tortilla soup you’ll find! I know, I know, there are hundreds of variations of this recipe, all just a little different. But I think what knocks mine out of the park is to saute chopped up tortilla’s with the onion…it…
