You may have missed these fantastic recipes the first time we shared them, but no more excuses!
Were you the nice kid? The one who most people seemed to like but who, for no reason at all, never got picked first? Who sometimes left your hand raised for hours before the teacher noticed? Who didn't get invited to the birthday party not because you weren't wanted there but because you got overlooked? (Me too.)
These recipes are those kids. We loved them when they came off the stove and out of the ovens in the test kitchen, but we're worried they're still waiting on your "to make" list. No more excuses: We're bringing them to your attention, once and for all.

Rick Bayless' Tortilla Soup with Shredded Chard by Genius Recipes
Kristen's hypothesis for why this didn't get enough love: It was originally titled "Chilied Tortilla Soup," which people may have read as "Chilled Tortilla Soup." And chilled tortilla soup is not so appealing.
