Beer bread. Very easy to make. And you can make it without the "add ins" like cheese and it still comes out great.

Is it okay to make food with snow? Isn't the condensation full of environmental pollution?

snow candy! Boil up some dark brown sugar & molasses. Pack a roasting pan with fresh clean snow. Drizzle the candy on top and let set.



In New England this is done with maple syrup and called sugar on snow. You boil the syrup to about 2 or 3x its usual thickness first.
You don't have to do a whole pan, you can do individual servings in bowls and eat with a spoon.

I'm making white bean and kale soup in the crockpot, but I like your menu better.

making this for the snow storm. What are you favorite "snowed in" recipes?

This soup is awesome. If you double it, you can still just use one stick of butter. Tasted perfect.

La Madeleine’s Tomato Basil Soup

4 cups canned crushed tomatoes
12 fresh basil leaves
1 cup heavy cream
1 stick (1/4 lb) of sweet unsalted butter
Salt to taste
¼ teaspoon cracked black pepper

Simmer tomatoes in saucepan for 30 minutes. Puree, with the basil leaves, in small batches, in blender or food processor. Return to saucepan and add cream, butter, salt and pepper while stirring over low heat. Garnish with basil leaves and serve with your favorite bread.
