Steak Stew is great with a thick slice of buttered bread. Nothing tastes better on a crisp fall day. Fall is finally here! That was the longest summer ever. The heat was unbearable and we had a little rain one day, I think. Too miserable. But now the cooler weather is here! We still haven't seen any rain, but the heat has passed. Perfect for fall cooking and baking. Like comforting casseroles, soup, and stews. I am teaming up with College Inn to share this recipe with you. We love … [Read more...]
Lentil & Cabbage Soup
Winter means getting all cozy and having a nice bowl of soup for dinner. It means snuggling up with a good book and cup of hot cocoa. It means snow.

Chicken Noodle Soup
Alright, fine. I will post a "healthy" recipe today. And Oh.My.Goodness. That's all I can say about this soup. I got it from the Pioneer Woman and she knows her stuff. It is so comforting and soul warming. I could eat this at least once a week. It's that good wonderful. I tweaked it a tad to suit my tastes. I must say I absolutely recommend using a whole fryer chicken (you can buy them already cut up) because it makes it taste so much better than just using boneless, skinless chicken breasts. … [Read more...]
