Strawberry Soup


I have been a huge Disney girl ever since I went to the parks for the first time in high school. I love everything about Disney- the rides, the atmosphere and of course the amazing food. Seriously Disney has some of the best food I have ever had on vacation. And like many other things, the chefs seem to put a magical touch on all of the food that comes out of the Disney kitchens. I don't know where to begin talking about all of the food at Disney. I think my favorite thing to do is walk around Epcot and enjoy all of the food from the different countries at the world showcase. If you have never been to Epcot during the annual Wine and Dine Festival, you must go. I have talked about it before, but it is awesome and provides a great opportunity to sample foods from around the world. 

Even the food from the Disney street vendors is amazing. If you have ever had the a Dole Whip or the churros, then you know what I am talking about. And of course I can never resist a Mickey's Ears Ice Cream Bar. Finally, I love Disney's  Strawberry Soup, which I first tried at the Grand Floridian Hotel a few years ago. When I came across the recipe for this famous soup, I knew I had to try it. It is cool, refreshing and reminds me of the many reasons why I love Disney so much.
