Hi and welcome to the forum! I am looking at Issue 48, and I can't find a turkey soup with tofu. I found Turkey, Shrimp and Sausage Soup with White Beans and Turkey Tom Ka Gai (which does have ginger). Are either of these what you are looking for?

lol...thank you, but I cheated...I didn't have to type it.


Re: Dec 2004, issue 48?! - nikkiink - 01-11-2008

is the issue posted on-line somewhere? my issue was never returned, there are some good recipes in there. (try the penne and pistachio!)


Re: Dec 2004, issue 48?! - TwilightKitten - 01-11-2008

Sort of...there is another CAH site with a lot of the recipes on it, but it isn't open to everyone. Right now only beta testers have access to it. It was going to be a pay site but they pretty much scrapped the whole thing for now. I do hope they finish it someday...it really is a great site.


Re: Dec 2004, issue 48?! - nikkiink - 01-11-2008

oh bummer! thanks again for the recipe! have a great weekend!
