Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup

Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup

I have memories of being sick growing up and eating a bowl of canned chicken noodle soup and not loving it. Matter of fact, I would have been fine never having another can ever in my life. It wasn’t until I became an adult and had homemade chicken noodle soup that I actually realized what all the fuss was about. There is a complexity in flavors from a homemade soup that a can cannot compare to. I like to make my own broth too which makes the soup that much better in my opinion and worth the extra effort. However, if you don’t have time a store bought broth will work just fine here. My homemade chicken noodle soup is so comforting and delicious and you are definitely going to be making it over and over again.

White Bean Chicken Chili

White Bean Chicken Chili

Healthy White Bean Chicken Chili

Do you need a one pot meal in your life like I did this week?  Between building twelve wooden tables, Canean going out of town, and my dad coming in town, a one pot meal was a life saver this week.  Since it's fall technically, even though the Louisiana weather refuses to admit it, I made one of my favorites.  Healthy white bean and chicken chili is one of my favorite go-to weeknight meals in the fall because it's easy and really, really good.

Sometimes I have time for elaborate meals that have lots of steps and require lots of love.  And sometimes, I just need a yummy and healthy meal that I can feel good about eating that will be ready in no time and requires little effort.

Kale, White Bean, and Quinoa Soup

Easy Peasy Kale, White Bean, and Quinoa Soup

I don't know if you are like me, but with all of this cold weather I cannot get enough soup in my belly. Some days it's the only thing other than a hot bath that will warm me up at all! Well this week has been no different in the weather department and as I stood in the fridge trying to decide what to make for lunch one afternoon, all I had was salad stuff...cold salad stuff. Brr...that was clearly not going to work...I needed something warm, but still good for me. Enter easy peasy kale, white bean, and quinoa soup…hearty, healthy, and so delicious!
