I’ve been thinking a lot about garlic lately, especially since we shared 35 Fresh Garlic Recipe Ideas to Promote Happy Belly Syndrome to help you eat and cook more healthy and delicious fresh garlic as we move closer to Thanksgiving and the Christmas holiday season.

Here’s a nicely spiced garlicky soup recipe for Garlic Bread Soup from the folks at Sippity Sup which is also a great way to help you use up any extra garlic bread you may have.

Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1 lb onions, roughly chopped
1 cup garlic cloves, peeled and roughly chopped
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt
white pepper
1 quart chicken stock
1 (4 inch) piece of Parmgiano-Reggiano rind only
4-5 cups of left over garlic bread cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon mixed herbs (parsley, thyme, etc)
8 or 10 steamed clams per person (optional)
Grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese for garnish
