  • I haven't made any soups yet this season but I'm determined to try LTP's beer cheese and I have a recipee from Pinterest for lasanga soup which looks delicious.

    tuesday: chicken piccata with brown rice and a side salad with homemade croutons (this may be my new favorite chicken recipe as it is super simple, light and delicious)

    wednesday: pierogies and a salad or soup and grilled cheese.  haven't decided yet.

    thursday: edit: I'm going to make a version of the ww bubble up enchiladas, but with ground beef instead of turkey since I already have that.

    friday: probably some sort of take out since the hubs will be out and I'm home with the baby

  • Kel I saw this on Rachael Ray recently and thought it looked simple:

  • I haven't cooked or eaten dinner-type food in a few weeks, but I have been craving soups like whoa.

    KellDel - I make a butternut squash and goat cheese soup that I absolutely adore.  I roasted a cut squash, onion, garlic and some carrots or parsnips in the oven tossed in evoo, s/p and sage...roast until everything is fork-tender.  Then I transfer it all to a big pot and add a can of veggie broth and bring to a simmer.  Then I puree everything until it's smooth, adding around another can of broth to get the consistency I want.  Then I add a small package of goat cheese to the soup and let it melt in.  It's so yummy.  If I am feeling okay this weekend, I am going to make a batch to freeze in portions so I can eat it at my leisure.

  • Those who are pros at making soup, have you ever made bread bowls to go with it?  I'm attempting the beer cheese soup and contemplating making them but I fear I may be out of my league since I've never attempted it.
  • Thanks all, I will making something on Sunday

    You will need a starter to make sourdough bread bowls which can take a couple of days!
