I agree. I'm the one that wander, I always want to see what is over the next hill. I think my wander lust will be with me forever.

Try posting on the Cooking Forum. There are some fantastic cooks there, with wonderful recipes. I tried to do a search, but the search feature isn't working very well maybe. Here is a link that might be useful: Cooking forum

Oh, I KNOW I'd love this one. All my favorites are in it. It sounds wonderful. Thanks for posting it. I'm saving it for sure.

I just found this forum, so hope this isn't too late for you. I modified this from a vegetarian cookbook for my vegan friends. You can substitute regular dairy milk for the coconut milk, if you wish, and/or leave off the red pepper flakes if you don't want a spicy soup. It's very good! SPICY CORN CHOWDER with Coconut and Lime (revised from vegetarian cookbook) 1 pkg KnorrÂs dry mix Vegetable Soup (vegetarian base) two 1-lb bags of frozen white corn, preferably C&W brand 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes 2/3 of a can of coconut milk, stirred well (freeze the remainder for other uses) 1/4 cup oyster sauce (vegetarian if a vegetarian soup is desired), optional 1/4 tsp lemon pepper (if oyster sauce is not available, increase to 1/2 tsp and add 1/4 tsp honey) Hot sauce to taste (we use Busha BrowneÂs Pukka hot sauce, but standard Tabasco sauce can be subbed) 1/4 cup lime juice (you may not need all of it; season to taste only) 1. In 6 cups of water, bring KnorrÂs soup mix to a boil, and simmer for 20 minutes. 2. Turn the heat back up, add the corn and red pepper flakes. Cover and bring back to a boil, then simmer for 3 minutes. Uncover, turn off the heat and let cool to lukewarm. 3. Add all other ingredients, being careful to add the hot sauce to taste. 4. Puree in blender, and reheat to serve. This makes 3 qts of soup: enough for 6 as a meal starter, or as a main course for 3-4.
