Slow Cooker Monday, this week in FAIL
Cream of Leek and Potato soup I wanted to make something that could be made for meatless Monday or could be made Vegan. I decided to make Julia Child’s recipe. I made a few small changes. Instead of water I used homemade veggie stock, I used little potatoes instead of large russets and I did …
This week in FAIL….fishy edition
I had one heck of a week last week. 3 visits to the doctor’s office, an x-ray, an MRI and a shot. One doctor’s office visit was for my daughter, who stayed home most of the week with a sinus infection.The other 2 doctor’s office visits, the x-ray, the MRI and the shot were mine. …
Slow Cookin’ Monday
One of the fun things about cooking is experimenting. The more comfortable you get in your kitchen, and with your kitchen tools, the more likely you are to get really creative. I’m fairly comfortable with my slow cooker. So, I mess about sometimes. On December 1st I cooked another turkey. We’re “tentatively” calling it December …
Happy Thanksgiving!
I hope all my wonderful friends have a great Thanksgiving! I am thankful for every one of you. Thank you for being you! I’m off celebrating the holiday with my family. If you’ve made a turkey, don’t forget to make turkey stock with it after you remove all the meat from the bird. Place the …
Turkey and Gnocchi Soup
One of the great things about Thanksgiving, besides the family time is left-overs….turkey to be specific. What do you do with all that left-over turkey once you’ve eaten a few of the pre-requisite turkey and stuffing sandwiches? I love using the left-over turkey to create new twists on recipes. Olive Garden has this amazing soup. …
Meatless Monday….3 bean soup.
I hope you had a wonderful weekend! We’ve had a wonderful weekend here in central Texas. 🙂 The Texas State Fair opened on Friday, we’re planning to visit the fair tomorrow (Tuesday). My children have Monday and Tuesday off this week, for the fair and a teacher in-service (6 weeks grade entering day). On Sunday …
Red Tortilla Soup with Chicken
I love soups…love them…gobble them up. Soups freeze well, they taste better on day two or day three, I love soup. If it’s a Tex-Mex soup….even better. Tex-Mex is one of my true food loves. Maybe it’s because I’m from Texas, maybe it’s just because Tex-Mex is Awesomesauce. If you’re in the northern part of …
Freezer cooking on a small scale…
When I say freezer cooking…you say? Eek! No way! You’re a crazy lady! Okay, maybe not, but I’m sure you’re not giddy. Freezer cooking to some sounds like a whole day, 30 meal affair. It does not have to be….. Don’t be scared, it’s not so bad. Freezer cooking does not have to take up …
Meatless Monday: An altered soup recipe, for my love.
We had a lazy weekend. I am recovering from a sinus infection and ear infection, so I am feeling a bit cruddy. When I feel cruddy I usually want soup. Soup or cake. Cake….no 😦 soup. It’s more filling and won’t cause a sugar high. I know, it’s summer…and I am posting soup recipes? The …
Cream of Mushroom soup~~Slow Cooker Style
So, I bought mushrooms when I was at the farmer’s market on Monday. I was all caught up in the excitement of buying produce and I forgot 1 important thing. I remembered that 1 very important thing once I got home. What was that thing? Um, I’m the only one in my house who eats …
