Saturday

Homemade vegetable soup with pasta (I am making a big batch of soup and freezing in meal portions to enjoy during the next month or so). I don't really follow an exact recipe when I make veggie soup. I usually saute the onions, fresh garlic, celery, carrots and mushrooms before adding the broth, tomatoes and other veggies. I then throw a bunch of veggies (canned tomatoes, squash, zucchini, mushrooms, onions, carrots, celery, corn) into a big pot of veggie broth. Simmer for hours, then add cooked pasta at the end. I season with bay leaves, oregano, parsley, pepper. I top it off with a little Parmesan once it is in the individual bowls. Click HERE for a good basic vegetable soup recipe.

Bread (free using free product coupon for Fleischmann’s multi-grain bread mix in paper recently)

Sunday

Not sure yet – maybe breakfast for dinner or leftover soup and grilled cheese sandwiches.
