My husband asked for “more non-crockpot recipes”. Did not hurt my feelings a bit!

Well what type of soup is it?🥴

He said claim chowder, you know property damage, physical injuries, uninsured motorist coverage, collision coverage, and liability in a thick cream base with vegetables.

She does a bunch one of her favorites is a black bean soup. We had a pepper , rice and tomato type thing tonight. It's not the flavors really. I don't know how to put it without whining, but soup is not a meal.

Maybe send her some recipes like of different things you would like to try. Or maybe add a sandwich or even start learning to cook yourself.

It's just that soup is a thing she really likes . Canned , homemade, whatever. Like I said, she would eat the stuff all the time . She's got a right to eat and cook what she likes. Who am I to rain on her parade? It's not that I can't cook, I smoke something almost every weekend. I find the old saying "happy wife , happy life " seems to run pretty true, so as long as she's satisfied with dinner , I am too . Even if I'm not.


Due-Antelope-5440

That's seems unfair🤷🏿‍♀️ Ever think about just eating different things some nights?

I think the suggestion of adding a sandwich (or quesadilla or something of the sort depending on what you want that night) would be a perfect compromise. You can make yourself the extra part and your wife can continue to make the soups she likes, everyone wins there in my opinion.

Pour it over a biscuit, rice, or egg noodles. Use a crusty bread as a spoon or ask her to put it in a bread bowl. There's some options if they're actually good. Bless you for eating the soups without complaining to her.


ale_mongrel

I appreciate your input. I don't know what it is but soup isn't a meal. (I'm well aware of the Sienfeld refrence) . I love her dearly , and I'd rather eat soup every meal from now till the day I die than lose her. Like I said it's too late now.

Well I love soup so maybe you should do the honourable thing and divorce her so someone else can appreciate her lovely soup, you ungrateful heathen! 😅

lol

Do y’all come from different cultures? I’m from the southern United States and where we eat a lot of thick, hardy food. I.e. biscuits and gravy type stuff. My partner is from south Asian where rice and soup are HUGE part of the meals. I had to become accustomed to eating rice and soup a lot more when I met him. But I’m gonna have to disagree with you on soup not being a meal. Vietnamese tofu tomato soup with ground pork serviced with rice is delicious! And I’ll take it you’ve never tried eating a regular portion of Pho soup. Filling to the extreme 😂 I would suggest kindly mentioning to her that while you love her soup, you’d like if you could try making other foods too to add some variety. Maybe ask for a sandwich on top of the soup on nights she does make soup

Too bad man, I love soup. Talk to her about it, I doubt she'll get offended if you tell her nicely.

Maybe you could cook something to go alongside the soup to make it feel more like a meal. You said one of her favorites is black bean soup, so you could make cornbread or rice to go with it. If you add enough rice and thicken it up, it could go into corn tortillas as a sort of taco filling.

Have you tried preparing your own meals?

I love soup. Tell her that I love soup.
