Raise your hand if you’re sick of winter! I really shouldn’t complain, I know it’s much colder in other parts of the country, but I’ve gotten a little spoiled, having moved from Maine to Tennessee ten years ago. 30° is now cold to me! In my own defense, it’s been much colder than that…
Easy Southwest Chicken Soup
The thing about soup is that it’s a “comfort food”, which means, you sometimes just really need some soup. Not an hour from now, and most definitely not from a can. (Seriously, don’t do that.) But soup can take a while to cook. And, despite its humble appearance, some soups can be a bit time-intensive….
Nach-Yo Mamma’s Chicken Soup
This is my husband’s favorite soup. It’s very easy to make and can be done either on the stove or in the crock pot. I took lots of pics but I don’t want you to think that it’s complicated so I’ve compiled them into one fun little collage. It takes only a few minutes to…
The Best Potato Soup
Finally! A potato soup recipe that is easy, takes only one pot, and most importantly, is delicious! This is only slightly adapted from the Pioneer Woman’s recipe, found here. I took a ton of pictures but don’t let that scare you. It’s not complicated. I’ve discovered it’s better for me to get as much done…
Autumn Chicken Stew
Who wants another Crock Pot recipe? One that isn’t just another version of the ones you already have? (Seriously, how many beef stew recipes can one person possibly need anyway?) This is one of those recipes that you just have to try. There is no way I can describe to you the flavor of this…
Veggie-Beef Soup
I can’t think of a better way to get my daily veggies on a cold winter evening than a beautiful, warm soup. And if it’s easy to make… and super cheap, well, we have us a deal! I’ve been eating this soup since I can remember being alive and making it since I was probably…
Quick Clam Chowder
I have to begin this post with a confession. I usually only post recipes here that I have tried and I like. They also need to be either really easy or really worth it if not-so-easy. I really can’t stand clam chowder. There. confession made. I’m publishing a recipe I do not like. But my…
Easy Corn Chowder
I love how easy and inexpensive this meal is! I don’t suppose it’s the healthiest meal ever invented, but it’s certainly not the worst! And it’s a welcome comfort on a cold afternoon. My brother likes his with a tuna sandwich, though I’m sure it has nothing to do with increasing the nutritional value! Enjoy your…
Bean & Pasta Soup
This has been a favorite soup of mine for several years now. I first had it when a friend of ours served it for dinner. I couldn’t leave without the recipe and I’ve been making it ever since. It’s easy to make. Chop all of the veggies (amounts in recipe below) and lightly cook them…
Beef Stew
I just realized I’ve been making this stew for about 23 years, and I still love it! My friend Leslie gave me her recipe in college. This is pretty much it, except she uses a package of dry onion soup mix instead of the real onions. I like to use as few packages as possible,…
