Cabbage Soup


 More cabbage soup with mild Italian sausage links cut up.  


In one large stockpot add the following:

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup diced white onion

1 cup diced green pepper

1 cup diced celery

1 cup diced carrot

Saute until tender


Add:

3-4 minced garlic cloves

Stir until fragrant


Pour in 4 cups of chicken broth

Add 14 ounce can of diced tomatoes.  I have been using a can of Rotel tomatoes with green chilies and a little medium salsa.  

1/2 head of a large cabbage, chopped


Cover pot and reduce heat.  Cook until the cabbage is tender.  I usually let it cook on low for an hour at the very least.  

Add seasonings: salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, whatever you like.  

This is where I add meat, I've used ham and I've used sausage.

Cook for another 10 minutes.

Thanksgiving Leftovers

What did everyone do with their turkey leftovers? We roasted a turkey breast Friday night. We carved the meat off the bone and made turkey stock with the bones and some vegetables overnight. Saturday I made turkey pot pie and my husband made turkey noodle soup.

Trader Joes Orange Chicken

People are always asking what everyone likes to buy at Trader Joes. Last night we used the orange chicken in a new way. We cooked the chicken and sauce following the instructions on the bag but we used the chicken to top a salad. I bought romain lettuce, a red bell pepper, green onions, and Ken's asian sesame dressing. Then I sprinkled some sunflower seeds and red pepper flakes on top of my chicken. It was pretty similar to Pei Wei spicy chicken salad. I felt a little better about eating the batter covered chicken on top of a salad :) try it sometime.
