Name: Bleu Cheese Soup with Bacon

It’s clear that all the religious systems are different. Yet all the religious systems, except Christianity, are all ultimately the same. Every world religion teaches what man must do to earn his salvation. Only Christianity teaches that we cannot earn our salvation, but that God in Christ must accomplish it for us. Thus, in Christianity, as compared to all other religions, it is gift versus reward and grace versus works and faith versus effort and humility versus pride and Christ versus self.

INSTRUCTIONS

This sounds wonderful....I just copied it from The Recipe Dude Bulletin
Board
Melt butter in a kettle. Add onions, leek, celery, and carrots and cook,
covered, over low heat until vegetables are tender and lightly colored, 25
minutes. Add potato, white wine, and stock. Bring to a boil, reduce heat,
and simmer, partially covered, until very tender, 20 minutes. Remove soup
from heat and crumble in the cheese. Stir till cheese has melted, then pour
the soup through a strainer, reserving the liquid. Transfer the solids to a
food processor or food mill, along with 1 cup liquid. Process till smooth.
Return soup to the kettle, pour in the rest of the liquid, and put over med
heat. When soup is simmering, check taste. Add more cheese if needed, and
you might want more salt and pepper. Ladle in bowls. Garnish with crumbled
bacon and serve immediately. 4-6 portions.
