Healthy Corn Chowder.

  Tuesdays are my farmer’s market day.  I gain inspiration there and when I saw stacks and stacks of Florida corn on the cob… I knew I had to whip up this soup.  Perfect for a rainy afternoon.  Filling after a long swim practice for my girls.  Filled with protein and fiber.  All good!  Plus … Continue Reading »

Pulled chicken taco soup.

  This pulled chicken taco soup was inspired by my youngest who, each and every week, begs for tacos.  I thought I would put a little spin on it and make my carnivore family a lovely little taco soup with pulled chicken.  I had a board meeting and sadly missed it but my husband’s report … Continue Reading »

{No cream added} Roasted Tomato Soup.

  I’m on a mission to continue to eat much cleaner and that was revamping my roasted tomato soup (which normally has some cream in it).  This is perfect!  It was thick and creamy sans the extra fat.  I love making this soup in the summer when fresh tomatoes are plentiful but honestly, you can … Continue Reading »

Ground Beef Taco Soup.

  We had our very first snow of the year, actually of all of 2012!  Although it was short-lived, it was fun while it lasted.  It put me in the mood for a nice, hearty soup to soothe my  soul and warm my bones. Every so often, you need a meal like that to make … Continue Reading »

Roasted Cauliflower & Garlic Soup.

I love soup!  It’s a cool, dark, dismal kind-of-day today.  Okay so I made cauliflower soup.  I know some of you are thinking how much you hate cauliflower.  It is, I agree, the most boring of veggies but once you roast it, paired up with garlic, it transforms this bland and boring vegetable into something … Continue Reading »

Homemade Chicken Broth & Soup.

Yesterday I made a roasted chicken that I purchased from my local Amish farmer.  I roasted it yesterday and then I wanted to make chicken stock and soup from the carcass.

Hamburger soup.

  Today started out with a 5am run.  Then the rain, once again, came back.  Rainy, drizzly and just kinda yucky out.  Weather like this… means one thing to a foodie like me.  SOUP!  Finally the rains have gone, the sun is out and I’m once again a bit more rejuvenated.  Yay. It has also … Continue Reading »
