Soup Sunday

It’s becoming a tradition in our household that Sunday night’s dinner is some type of soup, at least during the Fall/Winter Season.

I usually make a new kind of soup, a salad & get fresh bread from the local bakery. Sunday is our day to re-coup & regroup, preparing for the LOOOOOOOONG work week ahead!

This Sunday we had friends over to join us in our soup fest, so I resorted to a quick- fix type of soup so I could spend time with everyone -vs- me in the kitchen for the afternoon J

 

So I pulled out of the cupboard one of my favorite “Red Hill” soup packets- VEGI SOUP MIX. This one is a veggie soup made out of green & yellow split peas, lentils, and veggie noodles. So, being that I am feeding men and always like to doctor up a basic recipe this is what I added to the mix:

1.5 lb 97% lean ground turkey that was seasoned with Italian seasoning

2-cans of Diced tomatoes

1-can green chilies

Chicken bullion

1- cup of sliced celery & 1 cup sliced carrots

Dried basil

Dried oregano

Salt

Pepper

I let it all simmer for an hour and then served it with Gabbi’s delicious green salad and fresh Artisan bread.

The only thing left to do was watch a movie and have a HUGE root beer float! 

A perfect end to a perfect Weekend.
