happy monday, ya’ll!
sorry for my absence – i missed you. i was away last weekend in the mountains, and i didn’t get the chance to blog remotely on monday or tuesday and by the time mid-week rolled around i just decided to take the rest of the week off from blogging. with the holidays rapidly approaching, my “day job” will get more demanding of my time and energy, and thus i will appreciate the “calm before the storm,” if you will.
so, we’re back on track and here is today’s meatless monday recipe. it’s all about soup in the audrey michelle household. soup is all the things i look for in a meal : simple, healthy, easy, filling, and delicious. cost-effective, too!
see, i just bought a car. i think i mentioned that? well, a car means a car payment for me and that means reconfiguring my budget. i typically just splurge on food – it’s just my thing, i don’t shop, i don’t go out, i don’t eat out – my “treat” is food, always has been. and it will continue to be that way, i just have to be a little more aware and plan ahead. i plan on posting a blog about batch cooking, which ultimately saves time and money… just need to allot some time to yourself to plan ahead and just do it!
soup is a great make-ahead meal that keeps well in the fridge and is friendly with the wallet. so, on with the recipe!
