Casual Kitchen: The 25 Best Laughably Cheap Recipes at Casual KitchenAnother new recipe as part of Cookbook Exploitation Month:
Here’s an Austrian soup recipe that is so hearty and wholesome, I bet the von Trapp family served it at dinnertime. It comes from a cookbook of Austrian cuisine that was a gift from a wonderful guest we recently hosted who hailed from Graz, Austria.
The ingredients will all be easy to find in your grocery store, and yet the soup has a distinct and unusual savory flavor. Cook this simple and highly scalable dish in your home and see if it makes your family burst into song!
