Leftover soft cheese">Leftover soft cheese
After a recent party, I was left with a decent amount of soft cheese - a camembert and another similar but slightly stronger cheese that I can't quite identify. Both have been cut into, so it's not a matter of simply rewrapping and saving for the next party. But there's no...

This may sound like a frivolous question, but which one of these three "green" (literally!) soups do you prefer the most? And what is your favorite recipe to make them, vegetarian style? I am delivering food for a friend who will be recovering from surgery and would love to get some ideas....

I love food. Unfortunately, I can't cook worth a damn. I've been known to even burn water.
