Healthy Chunky Beef Stew

October 18, 2009

This was a fantastic healthy meal that was very easy to put together. I made this earlier in the day and reheated it for dinner and it tasted fantastic. I always like soups and stews the day after or later in the day after cooking. Always seems to deepen the flavors. I did add some [...]

Chicken Stew

WOW what a great and easy fall recipe. I love making soups on a Sunday in the fall. Simmering scents fill the house and when they are this easy, you arent glued to the kitchen all day long. I was able to throw this together (I doubled it for leftovers) and let it go while [...]

A great recipe from Gourmet magazine that I found on a great site,              Rec(ession)ipes. I love using leftover ham for a great bean soup, but with it warmer, making an all day soup just isn’t possible. So, when I saw this recipe for a quick version of it, I knew I had to make it. [...]
