Beef Curry Soup, yummy and fragrant simmering in the Slow Cooker = a little bit of Heaven here on earth!
It's almost May here in the North Maine Woods but the weather has been cold and rainy. We even had a snow storm a week ago! This seems like it has been an endless winter and today we have a cold, bone chilling drizzle and gloomy skies. It's the perfect day for a warm comforting soup so I have just finished filling the slow cooker with a batch of Slow Cooker Beef Curry Soup. I'll be serving the Beef Curry Soup with a nice crusty baguette spread with garlic butter and toasted under the broiler for a few minutes. It's a meal that always puts a smile on Bill's face and for me. that's a good thing!
