I wanted to make a yummy potato soup and found this recipe
here. I kind of followed it and made this delicious soup with Rosemary Olive Oil bread (store bought)!
I
started by boiling enough water to cover all the potatoes. I chopped up
a lot of red onions and garlic and let them soften in the pot while it
boiled. I chopped up about 8-10 potatoes, 5 organic celery sticks (leaves
included), cilantro, & dino kale. I also chopped up in quarters 4
Aidells Chicken & Apple Smoked Chicken Sausages.
Luckily, I bought pre-chopped butternut squash. I put all the veggies
in, except the leafy greens. I add smoked paprika, pepper, and salt. I
also add more liquid vegetable broth and turn it down med heat. When the
veggies are getting soft (about 8 or so mins) I add in almond milk, the
leafy greens, chicken sausage (comes fully cooked), and turn it down to
low. All the chopping takes the most time, but that's what I love most
about making dinner the chopping is like a stress reliever for me. Good
thing I enjoy it.
I prefer to not buy non-organic meat, it doesn't mean we won't eat it because you can't always control what you eat outside of your home. The meals I make with meat is mainly organic. Organic meat
is expensive, but we are able to afford it because we don't eat very
much meat at all and buying it in bulk at Costco you can get the most
for your money. We know its really important to include more plant based foods
that have lots of protein, fiber, omega fatty acids, iron, folate, etc.
Instead of eating animal meats and animal based foods. We really do like sausage, but I
haven't seen organic pork anywhere around here, so these chicken
sausages, although not organic, has no msg, nitrates, or added hormones and that's awesome! Like the
Chinese say meat should be for flavoring and not the main course!
