Mother's cumin soup
My parents growing up in Transylvania in the post-war time did not always have fancy ingredients for cooking.
This is a simple recipe that brings back so many childhood memories. Is simple, needs just a handful of ingredients, all cost less than a dollar, yet feeds the hungry family for one meal.
We ate most of our soups with bread, it filled us.

Spanish Bean Soup from my Mother's Recipe Card Spanish Bean Soup from my Mother's Recipe Card
This Spanish Bean Soup recipe has been in the family for five generations. I am sharing with all who want to try it out. It's according to which chorizo sausage you choose as to how much heat, spicy, is in the soup. Traditionally we eat it with Cuban sandwiches or Subs. We have it at every New Years Eve celebration. Leftovers can be frozen. This can be made the day before. A ham bone can be added. Happy New Years. I hope all your needs are met, with excessive abundance!!!

My Mom's Spanish bean soup My Mom's Spanish bean soup
Once or twice a year my Mom would make this soup. Usually around Christmas Eve, or New Years Eve. We would have it with Cuban bread, or small Cuban sandwiches. We would sometimes be outside nice chilly weather, being warmed by soup and sandwich, sometimes a bon fire. -

Mom’s Lentil Soup Mom’s Lentil Soup
Sometimes, simple is best, especially when it’s a cold day and you’re nostalgic for a warming winter soup just like mom used to make. My mom doesn’t like to spend a lot of time cooking, so her recipes tend to be simple, quick, and easy. This is one of them. But just because it’s simple, doesn’t mean it isn’t delicious! 😋Note: While the recipe isn’t vegetarian as written, it can easily be converted to a vegetarian recipe by using vegetable stock in place of the chicken stock.#Healthy #Winter #Vegetables #KeepRecipesAlive
