Roasted a chicken in the air fryer tonight.  It was crispy, juicy, and perfect!!  I forgot to get broccoli, so, Ds had 1/2 a baked potato, and dh and I shared a baked sweet potato.

Our tomato soup is simply one large tin of diced or crushed tomatoes and an equal amount of vegetable broth.  We often add a few vegetables, usually broccoli.  Good for days with zero time.  Roasted tomatoes taste even better.

Recipe for homemade tomato soup?

https://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/sherried_tomato_soup/


Ingredients
    6 Tablespoons Melted Butter
    1 whole Medium Onion, Diced
    1 bottle (46 Oz.) Tomato Juice
    2 cans (14 Oz. Cans) Diced Tomatoes
    1 Tablespoon (up To 3 Tablespoons) Chicken Base
    3 Tablespoons (up To 6 Tablespoons) Sugar
    1 pinch Salt
    Black Pepper To Taste
    1 cup Cooking Sherry
    1-1/2 cup Heavy Cream
    Chopped Fresh Parsley
    Chopped Fresh Basil

Instructions
Sauté diced onions in butter until translucent. Then add canned tomatoes, tomato juice, chicken base, sugar, pinch of salt, black pepper and stir. Bring to a near boil, then turn off heat. Add in sherry and cream and stir. Add in parsley and basil to taste.

Adjust other seasonings and serve with yummy, crusty bread on a cold blustery, dreary, depressing, rainy, snowy day. Then close your eyes.

And give thanks for soups like this.

--------------------
Notes: I don't use 6 Tbsp of butter. That seemed a bit much. I used 3 or 4. I used petite diced tomatoes this time and like that better than using regular ones. I used 3 Tbs sugar. I think I used about a tsp of chicken bullion.

Wow, that looks good.  I wonder what I could substitute for chicken boullion?  I don't like that stuff.

We really love Pacific’s No-Chicken stock. I don’t know if it works fit in your dietary restrictions, but I like it far better than ay vegetable stock and better than chicken stock.

If that won’t work, we have a veggie bouillon that is amazing. I’ll ask DH.
Me: Sesame, shellfish, chamomile, sage
DS: Peanuts

Sorry. DH is using it now. It’s Imagine, not Pacific.

The bouillon that DH used is Orrington Farms Vegan broth.
Me: Sesame, shellfish, chamomile, sage
DS: Peanuts

We use McCormick broth cubes, with 3 cups of water instead of two.

Tonight's dinner is chill made by my husband, plus Anson Mills black skillet cornbread made by me.  Mmmm... cornbread!

I honestly think you could just leave it out completely. It's kind of dumb to have it in there since it would otherwise be a vegetarian soup. Sometimes I think about vegetarian dishes I make, but then have to think about whether they have chicken broth or bullion in them. It's a good thing I don't have vegetarians to cook for--I'd hate to mess that up. Anyway, as I said, I only probably put about a teaspoon in anyway, so I don't think it would be missed if you just left it out. I think really the sherry and cream are key.

McCormick 'chicken' and 'beef' bouillon is vegetable-based, with no meat products.  Random trivia, but good for us (vegetarians).

You could probably replace bullion with salt, and maybe a sprinkle of onion powder and garlic, which might be flavors the comprise those in bullion.

I made pizza dough for the first time in years.  I think that DS outgrew dairy 3 years ago, its been that long.  Much easier to just order, lol.  I am also making some chicken cutlets in the air fryer so if anyone wants a chicken parm pizza they can add some.  DD will probably opt to have something else.  I am going to put peppers and spinach on mine and not too much cheese.  Trying to be better about my diet.

We still can’t order pizza. I have found some safe frozen, but they are nothing compared to my homemade. Although since we made calzones, we haven’t gone back to pizza.

Tonight we are doing ribs. It’s become a favourite since we git the IP.

I have yet to try ribs in the IP.  O made some for New Years in the oven and DD has decided she likes them (unsauced).  Maybe I will get some next time they are on sale and try them in the IP.

This is what we do in IP

Put a dry rub on the ribs...I just mixed some spices I though would be good. Put 1 cup apple cider and about 1/2 cup water in pot with insert in bottom.  Put ribs in and then put in some bbq sauce.  Cooked on high pressure for around 35 min.

I use apple juice, and QR.

Then cooked either in oven or bbq with bbq sauce.
