Roasted Poblano Soup
The hardest thing about this soup is whether to add one chili pepper (which gives it a mild kick) or three (where you get a “punch”). This creamy soup is good hot or cold. Add some corn or cooked chicken to make it more substantial.

Chicken Stock
Stock may be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days or frozen for up to three months.
Chicken Taco Soup
Don’t let the simplicity of this soup fool you. It has great flavor, texture and is delightfully spicy. Locally produced salsa, like Frog Ranch Salsa, delivers big Ohio tomato flavor.

The humble turnip is often called the “poor man’s vegetable.” While it may not be glamorous, it’s versatile, stores well and is delicious, especially in this simple and easy to make soup.

Spicy Italian style sausage adds zip to this tomato-based chili.

Trim away some of the fat before cutting the meat into 1-inch cubes.
