Last week was cold and rainy. I don’t think the sun came out much at all.
Plus there was the time change which meant I left for work in the dark and came home in the dark.
This signals two things to me: A) I need to get out my Happy Light, and B) I need a comfort food soup to slurp.
I got this recipe out of my Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook.
I like this recipe because it’s easy and quick, but also because my kids will eat the parts of it separate from the soup. For instance I boil a few extra noodles to leave out of the soup for the boys. They will also eat some of the veggies if I leave them out of the soup. Everyone was happy and Eddie even declared it a “delicious meal!” when I served it.
If the four-year old thinks it’s delicious, you know you’ve won dinner time.

The recipe makes a LOT, so next time (yes, there will be a next time), I will probably only make half a batch. I like leftovers as much as the next guy, but it made a LOT of soup for two people.
