Santa Fe Soup and Cornbread


Wednesday December 26

This was the Broughtons' day to cook, so JoLinn chopped up a skilletful of Schad's ham and made creamy scrambled eggs; Caroline said they were the best eggs she had ever had in all her nine years.

Unfortunately, everyone had to leave before dinner, as they all had a long drive home. So Holt and Barbara were left with a strangely quiet house, and two refrigerators full of leftovers.

For dinner, we had the last of some Santa Fe soup that JoDee had served for lunch on Monday, poured over a wedge of Holt's cornbread (made for post-Christmas-dinner supper, using the 15" cast iron skillet David gave him for Christmas), and dusted with cheddar cheese. Mmmmm.

Here's a recipe for Santa Fe soup, which seems to be a popular dish for campers.
But JoDee has promised she'll send us her own hints as well.
