Fire n Ice Soup

Fire n Ice Soup

It has been almost a month since I received the Denver Junior League’s Creme de Colorado Cookbook from Lea Ann at Mangoes, Chili and Z who celebrated her blog’s First Anniversary in May with this cookbook giveaway. Thank you Lea Ann for this wonderful cookbook which has nearly 700 recipes in it.

I wanted to make a dish from this cookbook that would best represent the beautiful state of Colorado which was once home to us. Going through the book, I came across this Fire and Ice Soup that really spoke to me of Colorado. The fire is like the hot, dry summers there with clear blue skies while the ice is the cold, crisp winters that transform the place into a winter wonderland.

Fire n Ice Soup

I adapted the recipe for the Hot Tomato Ice by using fresh tomatoes on the vine instead of canned tomatoes. As for the soup, I made a lighter minty Green Pea Soup instead of Avocado Soup. This soup has a lovely color with the Tomato ice giving it a nice contrast. It is light and refreshing. The slightly tart and spicy ice is a nice contrast.

[amd-zlrecipe-recipe:321]

This Fire n Ice Soup will pair beautifully with my Ebony n Ivory Dessert for a fabulous summer party.


Enjoy…..and have a wonderful day! 😎

    These two colours are beautiful together, and I like the touch of the mint leaf. The tomato ice cube just peaking out of the pea soup is enough to intrigue anybody who didn't know what that was. Lovely dish Biren.

    That's a beautiful looking soup and wonderful recipe. I can't imagine how good it tastes as the ice cube starts to melt and puts more flavor in the peas. Thank you!

    Hey Biren, this is so neat! I've never had anything like it, so I can't quite imagine it. But it is giving me an idea for a similar type cocktail. That's what I thought this was at first glance (smile). Hmm….

    Biren, I have to say I simply love every single post you write, and this is no exception! When a recipe has a story or a meaning to it, for me, it feels very special, and your description helped me imagine that place and your dish came alive..sounds a bit crazy maybe, but that’s what gives me passion with food! Seeing your recipes inspire me always.
    So thank you for your time and care with every recipe you share.
    it is much appreciated, and also by our group over on Facebook.
    Warmest, Mary

      Thank you so much, Mary for your kind comment. That is really sweet of you! We lived in beautiful Colorado for several years and had many wonderful memories there. We still miss the place and hope to return someday. I appreciate all the sharing you do on Facebook. I know it is very time consuming and you do a wonderful job of it.

      Hugs…Biren XO
