Veggie-Beef Soup Dinner

• Vegetable-Beef Soup (see recipe below)
• Salad with Walnuts and Apple
• Grilled Gruyere Cheese Sandwiches
• Chocolate and Vanilla Pudding Parfaits

This Vegetable-Beef Soup has a whole garden's worth of vegetables in every cup. Serve a small portion to have room for Salad with Walnuts and Apple, Grilled Gruyere Cheese Sandwiches, and Chocolate and Vanilla Pudding Parfaits. Look for aged Gruyere: It's a firmer, more flavorful cheese and the sandwich will be even tastier than you imagined.

Vegetable-Beef Soup recipe

Add walnuts and diced apple to salad greens and toss with your favorite creamy dressing.

Use a vegetable peeler or a cheese slicer to get thin slices of Gruyere cheese from a block. Prepare grilled cheese sandwiches, adding mustard to the bread if desired.

Layer chocolate and vanilla puddings to make striped parfaits. Top with chocolate sprinkles.
