NICE! My go-to for rainy days is a petite diced tomato, pinto bean soup with a simple dollop of sour cream (departing from the recipe's suggestion, pictured). You'll need an immersion blender for the final, finishing step, but it's well worth the trouble.

We call it "Spicy grandmother" here. Fantastic as part of a pork marinade; instant soups; or, as some point out, in eggs. My 4 year-old loves it. Heat a pan, add oil, some butter, and half a spoon of chili paste. Once melted, crack some eggs. Cook as usual. Serve on rice, noodles or by itself.
