Coconut Chicken Soup and Greek Salad Dressing

 It's crazy that this month is almost over and I have not really cooked much of anything this whole month. I definitely need to get back in the kitchen. 

Starting with this dressing. I had high hopes for it but it wasn't great. Just...OK. So many of the Vitamix Dressing recipes have just mostly been ok. Luckily I think I am mostly through them. Maybe only 2-3 more to go. This dressing had feta cheese, olives, olive oil- a lotta nice ingredients. I think the flavor was ok. Just the texture was odd. I made it at my parents house where I picked the lettuce myself fro the garden. And I used leftover prime rib as the meat. Yum.


Last thing...I made this coconut chicken soup today. It doesn't look like anything special but it was pretty good. It just needs a few tweaks. Like adding some vegetable...maybe Bok Choy. I skipped the cilantro. And used gochuchang instead of red pepper flakes. I like the combo of the lemongrass, fish sauce, and lime juice and I would definitely use this as a base to freestyle my own similar style soup. It was very easy to put together too. 

Excuse the picture- it just doesn't look like much of anything. 

And that's it. A slow start to cooking...but I am definitely going to rev it up the rest of the year.
