You rocked the house with the Sinf...Hey Marguerite! You rocked the house with the Sinful Bayou Crab Bisque, my Queen.<br /><br />Made it for a quick supper Saturday night and it was a huge hit. This is what impressed me most:<br /><br />1) Super easy to make and came together quick!<br />2) DELICIOUS!!<br />3) Readily available ingredients that are easy to stock up on and keep in the pantry. Even the fresh crab meat is packaged so you can keep it in the fridge for a month or so.<br /><br />I made half a batch for my husband and myself and we both got two filling helpings. Will make the second batch this week... it's gonna get cold again, so crab soup will be the perfect remedy. <br /><br />The sherry really makes the soup rich and home made tasting, but I made a few other substitutions just to lighten it up a bit: reduced fat milk and fat-free half and half. It didn't take any of the richness away and made it a little less of a guilty pleasure.<br /><br />Next time I make this, I think I'll double up on the crab... pureeing 8-ounces into the soup and tossing another 8-ounce container in for texture. I mean, you can never have too much crab in crab soup can you?<br /><br />Thank you again for the marvelous recipe. I linked to it and YOU in my post yesterday.<br /><br />http://casahice.blogspot.com/2010/01/lamb-osso-bucco-and-other-weekend.html<br /><br />Love you Marguerite!

Merci, cher!<br /><br />Alix- So glad you like the recipe! I buy the "Garden Natural" Cream of Portobello Soup, at my local health food store. If unavailable, you could just use the Campbell's Golden Mushroom Soup, instead. Merci beaucoup, it's always a pleasure to visit Casa Hice!<br /><br />Elizabeth- Thanks, hope you try it! I have boxes and boxes of beads! I saw where a lady super- glued them onto her car! Her whole car was covered with beads! lol<br /><br />Velva- The old glass beads are worth a small fortune. Thanks, the Crab Bisque is totally sinful and so easy! Mardi Gras is a blast, the party of the year!<br /><br />Nancy- So glad you enjoyed it!

It's sheer insanity and you're right, if the Saints win, they will go wild!<br /><br />Katherine- Merci-merci, my dear fellow Cajun! You got dat right,<br />cher! Geaux Saints, Who Dat, We Dat!

I immediately printed off the recipe and noticed it was similar to a Paula Deen recipe for crab bisque, which is so amazing in flavor it belies how easy it is to make. Yours recipe looks just as simple to make but is a little more interesting with the portobello mushroom soup. Who makes it? Sounds a little too elegant for good ol' Campbells - but I shall search it out. The other thing I know for sure is that the sherry is an absolute must!<br /><br />Cannot wait to make this tonight! Thanks for the recipe and for being so faithful to Casa Hice. I always love when you visit and leave comments. By the way - I must apologize for not having added Cajun Delights to my sidebar blogroll before now. I honestly thought I had. Fixed that!<br /><br />Love you cher.Boozy Toothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10765083787738573580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5849317861159929264.post-47476138608384305412010-01-19T15:17:07.044-06:002010-01-19T15:17:07.044-06:00oh, yea!!! let the good times roll, ya'll!!! ...oh, yea!!! let the good times roll, ya'll!!! and yummmmmmy!!!GYPSYWOMANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03042621041213415958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5849317861159929264.post-48733261700267952012010-01-19T10:37:22.579-06:002010-01-19T10:37:22.579-06:00MAgs mags mags... you have got to stop spreading t...MAgs mags mags... you have got to stop spreading those rumors about New Orleans having the best Mardi gras events...<br /><br />You know that this Friday, in the suburbs of Kansas, THE Mardi gras event of the season will be happening...<br /><br />Did you get my email from earlier this week???Inspired by eRecipeCardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09104173871760979364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5849317861159929264.post-44128949514331252272010-01-19T10:36:41.200-06:002010-01-19T10:36:41.200-06:00Bon-bon Cher!
