Are you in Souplandistan?
Friday, March 27th, 2009KEEN is!
We had the lovely folks over at SoupCycle pay us a visit and bring us delicious, homemade, organic soup. Since starting SoupCycle in the summer of 2008 they’ve:
Cooked and delivered over 2,500 tasty, organic soups
Saved over 1,000 car-miles by using bicycle delivery and
Funneled $2,000 dollars to local farmers
Check out their soup program here in Portland (they’re hoping to expand to other cities in the future!) at: www.soupcycle.com. Find them on Twitter here: http://twitter.com/SoupCycle.
KEEN’s favorite soup was South in Your Mouth – a delightful southern-cooking New Orleans style recipe of sweet potato, corn and jalapeño bisque made with sweet molasses and a kick of cayenne. Mmm, mmm good!
