We recently ranked the most unique bed and breakfasts across the nation and wanted to let you know that the Slattery Vintage Estates Bed and Breakfast ranked as the most unique bed and breakfast in Nebraska!

Our Unique Bed and Breakfast in Nebraska

Slattery Vintage Estates in Nebraska

Spend the day touring a working vineyard and winery, sampling different vintages in the tasting room, enjoy a cheese plate and catch some live music in the courtyard at Slattery Vintage Estates in Nebraska. Don’t bother calling an Uber when you’re ready to call it quits- you can spend the night on the grounds in the estate’s unique outdoor bed and breakfast. Slattery bills itself as the “original glamping destination in the Midwest.” Each elevated tent is furnished with antiques in prairie-elegant fashion, and has a small porch strung with lights, for a charming effect in the evening. It’s hard to picture a better destination for couples, and the company website’s many photos of proposals made on the grounds attest to the romantic vibe. Each tent in the bed and breakfast has its own fire pit, and guests can purchase not only wine from the estate, but also foil dinners to cook over the fire or even s’mores. Pairing local wine with marshmallows by the campfire with your significant other? We’re willing to bet you won’t forget this unique glamping experience.

Recipe of the week...

Delicious August Corn Chowder

4 cups	chicken broth
2 cobs	corn ears (kernels removed, cobs reserved and have crosswise see note)
4	whole dill weed sprigs (including the stems)
2 tablespoons	dill weed (chopped fresh)
4 each	new potatoes red-skinned (unpeeled and cut into 1/4 inch dice)
2 cups	yogurt (low-fat)
3 each	cucumbers (peeled, seeded and cut into small dice)
1	small sweet red bell peppers cored (seeded and cut into 1/4 inch dice)
1	black pepper (coarsely ground to taste)

Directions

Whenever cold soups call for chicken broth, be sure to defat it completely for best results. Also, black pepper is the only spice in this chowder, so freshly ground is a MUST.

Place broth, corn cobs and dill sprigs in a heavy pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, simmer 10 minutes. Discard cobs and dill.
Add potatoes to broth and cook for 8 minutes or until tender. Add corn kernels and cook 1 minute longer. Remove from heat; pour soup through a strainer, reserving vegetables and broth.
Place yogurt and ⅔ of the diced cucumbers in the bowl of a food processor; pulse on and off just to combine ingredients (so some texture remains). With motor on, pour in 1 cup of reserved broth through feed tube and pulse machine on to just combine ingredients. Remove to a bowl. Save any leftover broth for another use.
Stir in the reserved vegetables, remaining diced cucumber, bell pepper and chopped dill. Season with fresh black pepper. Refrigerate for up to 2 hours. Serve chilled.

Per 1-cup serving: 212 calories, 2 grams fat, 5 milligrams cholesterol.

NOTE: If you like, cut 3 more ears of corn (with kernels) into 1 inch lengths and cook separately for 2 to 3 minutes. Then divide corn between bowls and ladle soup on top
