Tomato Soup and Pasta Recipe

Written by Published on Updated on October 5, 2022 in Uncategorized

Hey everyone,

I hope you are doing well.   There is one more soup that I must tell you about this Tomato Soup with Pasta Recipe.   In the Greek Religion, most people fast for 40 days before Easter.  Buttt that is not is always the case when you are a child the rules sometimes tend to change or better yet are broken.  As children, we would only fast the last week before Easter.  Even though we were fasting we would occasionally be given french fries.  I found that to always be odd, my question to everyone was “so are we fasting or not”? and of course I would be reprimanded with the quick response of “mind your business and do what we tell you to do”. hehehehe

Good Friday was a difficult day in regards to what to feed us.  I have to admit that my mom would always ask us if we wanted to eat this Tomato Soup.  We would always yell out loud YES!!!!.  Then we would run around the house yelling YESSS YESSSS, my brother was 4 and I was 9 so definitely a lot of yelling going on. 🙂  So, this year I decided to go with this soup.  It’s a quick and simple recipe with just a handful of ingredients and a great recipe for those who are just starting to learn how to cook.

While I was preparing this soup I remembered how I drove my mom crazy with all my questions.  I was 9 and I was curious!!  But wait don’t for a second think that I have stopped asking questions!!

Have a good one everyone!!

Stay tune Episode 4 of Behind the Greek Apron is coming soon!!!!

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie
