ITALIAN WEDDING SOUP: TURKEY MEATBALLS AND KALE. Ever since I tasted the Italian Wedding Soup at the United Lounge years ago, I have dreamt about it numerous times. It was only last month that I found out that my husband used to cook it at his former workplace. When he mentioned it, I asked if he can cook it for me. It was amazing to learn that we had the ingredients available that day- Israeli couscous (sub for orzo) in the pantry, kale (sub for escarole) in the fridge, and ground turkey (sub for ground beef) in the freezer.

Savoring the delicious soup once again brought me back to moments of joyful eagerness and anticipation to experience new travel adventures. I feel blessed to have experienced the carefree feeling while traveling prior to the pandemic.

I also feel so blessed that my husband is a chef and ever so willing to satisfy my food cravings.
