Lasagna Soup



This recipe I found in my favorite cooking magazine, Cuisine At Home. This has become one of our favorite soups to make on those cold Colorado nights. I love making homemade rolls and honey butter to go along with this very yummy and filling soup.

Lasagna Soup
adapted from Cusine At Home, Dec. 2005

1 lb Italian sausage
2 cups onions, chopped
1 cup carrots, diced
2 cups mushrooms, sliced or chopped
2 T, garlic, minced
4 cups chicken broth
1 can Italian style tomatoes, chopped (14 1/2 oz.)
1 can tomato sauce (10 3/4 oz.)
1 1/2 cup campenelle pasta
2 cups fresh spinach, chopped or whole
1 cup mozarella cheese

Brown sausage in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onions and carrots; saute 3 minutes. Stir in mushrooms and garlic, and saute another 3 minutes.
Add broth, tomatoes, and tomato sauce, and bring to a boil. Drop in pasta and simmer until cooked, about 10 minutes, or according to package directions. Stir in spinach and cook until wilted.
Place 1/4 cup of cheese into serving bowls and pour soup on top. Garnish with parmesan cheese.

Chicken Salad Sandwiches with Fruit and Almonds

Chicken salad sandwiches seem to be the go to item for baby and bridal showers.  I wanted to make some for the baby shower, but had a dillema.   While I like the main components in the salad, I really do not like the taste of raw onions and celery.  However, I still wanted some crunch and flavor in the salad.

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Scrumptious Sugar Cookies

Sugar cookies are one of my favorite things to make with the kids! It's tradition to make them for a few different Holidays including Valentine's Day. While decorating is the usually the main purpose in making these, over the years I have tweaked the cookie recipe and frosting to make them absolutely scrumptious as well! So much yummier that buying a store-bought mix and canned frosting.  I would even be so bold as to say I think they are every bit as good, if not better, than Swig and Crumble! Give them a try and see if you agree.   My Scrumptious Sugar Cookie Frosting is an ultra creamy, cream cheese frosting with a few extra additions that put it over the top! Sour Cream adds to the creaminess and takes the sweetness down a notch.  The frosting is still plenty sweet but not sickeningly so.  Butter Vanilla Emulsion is my other secret weapon that really elevates the flavor of this frosting! It can be found on Amazon, or in a craft store like Michaels,  but...
