Does anyone have a recipe for 'christmas soup'? In Sweden it is the tradition to put up the Christmas tree on December 23. A 'dip in the pot' is also the traditional 'meal'. Sort of like dumplings which I do not like. So, I thought it might be nice to make a soup or stew. Something we could smell all day while we worked.

Any ideas for recipes? I was thinking maybe tortellini with red and green peppers........

PEPPERMINT BARK:

ngredients
