Cabbage Roll Soup |

You have heard of 'Lazy Cabbage Rolls' but this dinner idea takes 'lazy' to a whole new level.

Quick and easy cabbage roll soup tastes just like the real thing but takes much less time and effort - here is how I made mine:


- Fire Roasted Pepper and Tomato Soup Base

- Beef Broth

- 1lb of ground beef

- 1 Large can of diced tomatoes

- 1 bag of chopped cabbage/coleslaw

- 1 cup of cooked rice

- Parmesan cheese


How to make the soup:

- Cook the rice according to package directions

- Brown the beef

- Over medium heat mix together the beef broth and the pepper/tomato soup base.

- Add the can of diced tomatoes and half the pack of cabbage/coleslaw to the soup base.

- Bring to a boil.

- Once it has come to a boil turn it down to low heat and add the cooked meat and rice.

- Simmer on low for 10-15mins.

- Serve in bowls and sprinkle 1 tsp of Parmesan cheese on top of each serving.

This soup is an easy and quick dinner to cook and is even "Husband Approved" being that is it yummy, healthy and filling!

Seasonal Soup |

I have really been enjoying cooking every night and trying out new "Recipes".

The reason I put "recipes" in quotations is because I absolutely hate following actual recipes! I like to either make up what I think would taste good together, OR look at a photo of food and make my own version based on what it looks like the contents would be.

Thankfully my husband isn't too picky about his food as long as it is healthy, and we haven't had a disaster dinner as of yet.

Here is one of my favourite soups that I have made, and I have made quite a few different types over the past few months.

I call this one 'Butternut Squash and Spinach Lentil Soup' (great title I know) :D

Here's how to make it:

In a large pot with a lid add the following ingredients, bring to a boil and then let simmer for 5 mins.

- 1 pkg. Vegetable Soup Base

- 1 pkg. Butternut Squash Soup Base
- 1 pkg. Frozen Spinach (add frozen)
- 1 pkg. Frozen Butternut Squash (add frozen)

- 1 Can of Lentils
- 1/4 Cup of Peperini Noodles

- Add Pepper and Basil to taste

It is that easy and it is such a yummy fall taste!
