"Sunday Soup" features 60 recipes (one for each Sunday and then some!) that take advantage of the natural bounty each season brings. Fall blows in with windy days that are perfect for enjoying Tortilla Soup with Chicken, Lime and Smoked Chillies, while a rich Gulf Coast Shrimp Gumbo is best for staving off the winter cold.Welcome the bounty of spring vegetables with Dreamy Creamy Artichoke Soup. When it's summer and too hot to even consider turning on the stove, chill out with Icy Cucumber Soup with Smoked Salmon and Dill. No matter what the temperature is outside, you'll be satisfied inside all year long. Author Betty Rosbottom has also included a selection of Soup-er Sides - great side dishes that will turn your bowl into a full meal.
