Pasta Fagioli Soup Recipe This pasta fagioli soup is a hug in a bowl!  I’ve updated this recipe to add more protein – adding 4 ounces of lean beef (made into meatballs) makes this bowl of soup 5 Weight Watchers points AND a whopping 43 grams of protein.  So good I plan on eating this for breakfast too. For whatever reason I’ve never made this...

Heirloom Tomato Basil Soup Fun fact about me:  I don’t like sliced tomatoes but I love tomato soup!  This heirloom tomato basil soup screams summer. When I went to the Logan Square farmers market yesterday, there was a whole table of heirloom tomatoes and they looked incredible!  I bought this one, which is called an accordian heirloom tomato.  How gorgeous is this? What are heirloom...

The secret to my vegan tomato soup recipe?  Silken Tofu! A couple weeks ago I bought silken tofu for a pancake recipe, and I never ended up making it.  My lunch out yesterday was 24 points, and I thought for sure I’d be over my healthy range for the day on WW.  Nope!  This vegan tomato soup was made mostly in my blender, and other...

Instant Pot Potato Soup For some reason I don’t take advantage of my Instant Pot as much as I should.  This Instant Pot Potato Soup was so easy and delicious!  And as of December 2024 with the new Weight Watchers change, its ZERO POINTS!  Whoop!  Add a touch of extra cheese and bacon bits on top. Sunday night I normally go through my pantry/fridge and...

After a few days traveling I contemplated hitting up Burger King on my way home.  Then I remembered I had frozen cherry tomatoes and this tomato soup was ready in 30 minutes. Seriously, I don’t know why my brain goes to junk food when I don’t have a plan or travel.  I have to remember it’s not my birthday every day – ha! Can you...

My friend Justin posted a ramen soup yesterday and I decided to make my version of that soup.  Salt and Pepper Tofu Ramen! Justin turned me on to white miso pasta a couple years ago, and it gives this broth such a rich flavor, that it only tastes as if the broth took two days to make.  Typically ramen broth requires pork bones to be...

Can’t stop, won’t stop with the delicata squash recipes!  This creamy delicata squash soup is so creamy and delicious – you’ll love it! How do you make delicata squash creamy? My air fryer did most of the work.  After it cooked for 20 minutes, I was easily able to cut the squash and scoop the seeds out.  Then I added the broth and the squash...

Homemade Spaghettios This bowl of homemade spaghettios brings me right back to my childhood. Specifically Sunday mornings after church.  I would heat the can of spaghettios, toast white bread and butter it, and scoop the bread into the spaghettios with each bite. Can you make homemade spaghettios with fresh tomatoes? Yep!  I frequent The Waypoint Farm at my local farmers market and scored these amazing...

 Spicy Black Bean Soup Recipe I posted this spicy black bean soup in my newsletter.  Only two things – I never uploaded the photo of it, and I had a typo in the recipe. So instead of fixing the newsletter and resending it to thousands of people, I am posting it here and on IG. This literally is the best black bean soup recipe I’ve...

Broccoli cheese soup was my go to choice at Panera.  Hannah used to work there and I’ve talked about how I envisioned her making this soup from scratch. Sadly, she told me that all the soups came frozen and all they did was reheat them at the store.  Bummer! Let’s talk about this mini bread bowl.  At first I thought it was useless because it...
