I’m cooking my way through the Tenderheart cookbook.
Everything Bread Soup
The photo is from the second time I made this because I was absolutely starving the first time and gobbled it down before I remembered to take a photo. This is a carb fest, so we had it a few times when we were both doing big kilometres running.
The Quick Lowdown:
- Ingredients: This contains basic ingredients that I would usually have in my fridge and pantry. We used a pumpkin-filled pasta, which gave it a lovely sweet touch.
- Prep-work: Easy
- Dirty dishes: Cutting board, knife, dutch oven.
- Taste: It was tasty, and very satisfying. Great for cold weekend meals.
- Family-friendly: Yes.
- Regular rotation worthy: This makes a satisfying meal.

Grilled Eggplant and Soba Noodle Salad with nearly nuoc cham
Eagle-eyed readers will note that I didn’t use soba noodles. I just went with what was in my cupboard.
The Quick Lowdown:
- Ingredients: This also contains basic ingredients that I would usually have in my fridge and pantry. I made this because we had some eggplant in our veggie box.
- Prep-work: Easy
- Dirty dishes: Cutting board, knife, saucepan, baking tray.
- Taste: It was tasty, and very satisfying. Great for cold weekend meals.
- Family-friendly: Maybe. It has chillis and eggplants, but it went down well at our place.
- Regular rotation worthy: When I have eggplants in our box I’ll make this again.

Mhm this sounds really good. My grandparents kept talking about bread soup. It was mainly a war dish when everything was gone and the bread stale. I recently found my grandmas recipes in her belongings. I bet your soup is much more extravagant. It does make me want to try it though. And I love a carb fest. Specially when having a migraine.
The bread soup is perfect for using up old bread. I think you should try your grandmas recipe. That would be so cool. My mum’s mum used to make the best sponge cakes every Sunday when she came for dinner. A few years ago my sisters, daughter, niece and mum and a multi-month bake off when we took turns trying to make a sponge that would match hers.
