We eat there pretty regularly, and they

always have great soups (I particularly

like the Deep Kettle House Chili).

Would like to find some recipes and

make them at home.

TIA.

 
Here are some > REC: Sweet Tomatoes Cream of Broccoli Soup

Sweet Tomatoes Cream of Broccoli Soup
28 March, 2009, CopyKat Recipes

The Broccoli Soup rounds out our trip to Sweet Tomatoes. This is a lighter version of the soup than what we are used to. Please do not keep this soup for a long time, it will not hold as nicely as other soups do. It is lower in fat.

4 C. Fresh Broccoli Heads and Three Inches of Stalks (diced)
1/3 C. Yellow Onion (diced)
4 C. Water
3/4 tsp. Celery Salt
1/4 tsp. McCormick Seasonal
1/2 tsp Sugar
2 C. Low Fat Milk
Simmer Broccoli and onions in 4 cups of water until the broccoli and onions are tender. Remove 3/4 cups of broccoli heads and set aside. Cook the remainder of broccoli and onions until soft. Remove from heat and strain broccoli and onions.

In a blender pour remainder of broccoli and onions add celery salt, seasonal, sugar and milk. Blend until all are smooth. Pour mixture into a saucepan, add the 3/4 cup of broccoli and simmer on a medium low setting for 20 – 25 min.

Great served with crusty hard rolls and a selection of cheeses.



 
REC: Sweet Tomatoes Tomato and Onion Soup

Sweet Tomatoes – Tomato and Onion Soup
28 March, 2009, CopyKat Recipes

This is a low fat, and vegetarian soup. This soup is made fresh with thinly sliced onions, and roma tomatoes. You can prepare this soup in no time. To retain the fresh taste that this soup offers, do not store it for an extended period of time.

1/4 C. Olive Oil
2 1/2 C. Thinly Sliced Onions
2 1/2 C. Diced Fresh Romano Tomatoes
4 C. Tomato Juice (not V-smileys/bigeyes.gif
2 C. Water
1 1/2 tsp Celery Salt
1 1/2 Tbsp. Diced Fresh Basil
3 tsp. Diced Fresh Oregano

In large soup pan on medium heat simmer and stir onions until they turn transparent but not brown. When onions are transparent add tomato juice, water, celery salt, basil, and oregano. Heat and stir occasionally the mixture for 20 -25 minutes on medium heat. Add fresh tomatoes and simmer for 15 – 20 minutes longer.
The fresh herbs definitely make the difference.

Soup is great served with croutons on top.

 
REC: Sweet Tomatoes Clam Chowder

Sweet Tomatoes Clam Chowder
28 March, 2009, CopyKat Recipes

Sweet Tomatoes is a great salad bar and more restaurant. Everything is made fresh daily. This version of clam chowder features a nice Rosemary flavor, its unexpected, but really enhances the soup.

3 Slices Lean Bacon (diced)
1/2 C. Diced Onion
2 C. Scaled Whole Milk
2 C. Potatoes Cut Julienne Style
1/2 C. Half and Half
1/4 tsp. Thyme Leaves
1/4 tsp. Finally Diced Fresh Rosemary
1/2 tsp. Celery Salt
1/4 tsp. Sugar
1 6 oz Can of Minced Clams

Cook potatoes until they are done but firm. Drain water off and set aside. Place 1 1/2 Cups milk and half and half into a saucepan on medium temperature and heat just until it starts to boil. Immediately remove from stove and set aside. Scalding milk will help prevent it from curdling. When the potatoes have cooked cut into large Julianne slices.

In large pan fry bacon on medium high temperature to render grease from bacon and when done carefully take bacon from pan and leave grease. Place onions in bacon drippings and saute until clear. Add scalded milk, cooked
potatoes, clams with juice, and seasonings. Bring to a slow simmer and stir occasionally, cook for 25 – 30 minutes. Chowder may be thicken now by adding flour to 1/2 cup of milk mixing well and slowly adding to chowder and
stirring constantly until thick as desired and creamy.

 
REC: Deep Kettle House Chili copykat

Deep Kettle House Chili Recipe

To be honest, I have no idea where this recipe originated, all I know is that I have been eating it since I could remember. My grandmother use to make it, and my mother used to make it, and now, I
make it. If you have ever eaten at a buffet style restaurant called "Sweet Tomato’s" you will find that this chili almost matches exactly the
"Deep Kettle House Chili" that they sell, which was to my surprise, because I know my grandmother has been making this chili since before
Sweet Tomato’s was ever in existence. But, that's okay because I love this chili and now I can go to Sweet Tomato’s and get something that
tastes almost exactly like it.


Deep Kettle House Chili

Ingredients:

1-2 16 oz. cans Dark Red Kidney Beans
2 16 oz. cans stewed tomatoes
1 Small Stalk of Celery
2 Mince garlic cloves
3 Tsp Chili Powder
2 Tsp Salt
1 Tbsp Pepper
2 lbs Ground Hamburger or Turkey Meat
1 Bell Pepper (Green)
1 Onion (Yellow or White)

Directions:

Chop and Sauté Onion, Celery, Garlic, Bell Pepper, and meat until
meat browns. Drain fat. Add all other ingredients then cook in pressure
cooker for about 10-15 min after shaker starts.

You may cook this in a standard soup pot; however cooking time
will be much longer. If using a standard soup pot, bring to boil then
boil hard for 10 min, then simmer until vegetables are tender.

(Read Pressure cooker instructions for proper use).
