Cool weather is creeping in on us. It’s time to pull on a sweater and pull out the soup recipes. This potato soup is not fancy or dressed up. It’s comforting, like your favorite sweat shirt. Warm, nourishing, inexpensive, quick and easy. Add hot Cornbread or Graham Muffins and you have a homemade meal in less than 30 minutes.

Mac and Cheddar with Broccoli
Creamy, cheesy and satisfying. This can be a meatless meal or a side dish. I altered this a little bit from a Rachel Ray recipe. I used a bit less cheese than she called for and made a few other minor adjustments. [Read more…] about Mac and Cheddar with Broccoli
Veggie Pie
When my kids were very small, and there were fewer of them, I used to make this dish often. Somewhere along the line, I forgot about it. A very sad thing, because this pie is healthy, easy and tastes great. The recipe is lightly adapted from the Whole Foods for the Whole Family cookbook.
Cheese Stuffed Zucchini Boats
Are you being blessed with lots of zucchini in your garden now? Try something different than zucchini bread. My husband and I had these for dinner the other night. They are cheesy and flavorful. I do admit that my kids ate grilled chicken instead, but they missed out by not trying the zucchini boats.
Pasta Primavera
I love pasta. I’ve been noticing lately how many recipes I’ve posted that involve pasta. It’s a lot. I hope you don’t mind.
I altered this recipe from one I clipped out of Southern Living many moons ago. It turns out just a little different each time I make it, depending on the veggies I put in and also which kind of cheese I end up using. It’s always good.
