SoulChef: Vol. 1

Hey y'all. These are a few joints of mine, some adapted from my Dad (Chef Randy), and some of my own creations. I'ma tomato lover, as you'll be able to tell. Enjoy! I may do pictures next time..who knows. Lol.

Creamy Tomato Basil Soup
(Feeds 4)
2 Cans of Campbell's Tomato Soup
1 Can of Basil Seasoned Diced Tomatoes
Half of a fresh tomato, diced
Milk (to taste)
Add milk to soup, however much milk you like.
After the soup has simmered for about 15 minutes or to a slow boil, add the canned and diced tomatoes.
Stir until the tomatoes are mixed in.
For presentation, serve in a bowl with croutons and shreded parmesan cheese.

Unfried Chicken Parmesan Sandwich
(Can Feed 2, depending on your appetite)
1 Skinless, Boneless Chicken Breast (I use Kroger's 30 Minute Marinade: Herb and Garlic. Works well for this recipe.)Half a jar of Marinara Sauce (I suggest Emeril's Homestyle Marinara. It goes hard.)
Butter
Italian Seasoning
Garlic Powder
2 Slices of any Thick White Bread (Sandwich sliced French works, I use a bakery style sourdough.)
Sliced Tomatoes (optional)
Shreded Parmesan Cheese
Shreded Mozzarella Cheese
Sliced Mozzarella Cheese

Grill chicken until cooked through.
Heat marinara in a sauce pan until it's warm.
Mix butter, italian seasoning and garlic powder together.
Spread on one side of each slice of bread, and toast in a pan until the buttered side is golden brown.
Sprinkle the shreded cheeses on the unbuttered side of each slice of bread.
On one slice, place the chicken.
Pour the sauce over the chicken (however much you like).
Put one slice of mozzarella cheese over the chicken and one on the other side as well.
Bake until brown.
Dress with sliced tomatoes, if you like.

Cut in half. Works for lunch or for dinner with a salad or some sauteed veggies.

Food, Fellowship, and Sooooouuuuulllllll,
