For supper last night, I was feeling a little uninspired.  We have been eating the same stuff for quite a while and it was chilly and Fall like.  Add to that the soup recipes that I was reading over, I really didn’t know what to make (Hubby, A and J all don’t eat soup).

I had a bunch of random ingredients and realized that I could pull together a pretty quick pot pie.

Here is what I had:

• two chicken breasts
• cheddar cheese
• cream of potato soup
• a box of stuffing
• a bag of frozen veggies

Here is what I did:

1. cubed and cooked the chicken
2. microwaved the frozen veggies for 5 min. to take out the chill.
3. grated the cheese.
4. mixed the chicke, veggies, cheese and can of soup together in a caserole dish.
5. sprinkled the stuffing (prepared as per package directions) over top.
6. Baked at 350F for 30 min.

And boy did it taste good.  I even had enough for leftovers at lunch today.

The time of year has arrived.

Gone are the skinny salads and cool dinners replaced by warm comforting soups and mega carbs.

I am trying to be ok with that as soup keeps me going in the cold winter months.

And thankfully Apple loves soup as much as I do.

I do have a few recipes that are waistline friendly, but if any of you have a favourite soup that is delicious and low in the calorie count please pass it along.  I promise to make it at least once to try out (unless it is Pumpkin Soup, I have tried that once and something about eating pie for lunch just didn’t work for me).

Thank you, my waistline will thank you more.
