For those of you who look for this regularly, I didn't post anything yesterday because the grilled chicken and baked potatoes didn't really excite me. Today it is rainy and yucky outside and the possibilities of supper again seem rather boring.
I am thinking, though, about a big pot of vegetable soup. Most nights I try to save my leftovers in a gallon baggie in the freezer, potatoes, peas, green beans, a bit of roast, a pork chop, whatever. Today I will dump the leftovers into a soup pot, add a can of beef broth and a quart of tomato juice and simmer till everything is thawed. Once that happens, you can stir it around and see what else you need. If you need more meat, add a pound of ground beef, browned and drained. If you need more veggies, add your own, or a can of veg-all works too.
This soup is great with cornbread, but my kids love grilled cheese sandwiches with it. I love it because it is quick, easy, cheap and delicious. Have a happy rainy day!
