I made vegetable cheese soup. I got the idea from a lady at work, whenever she heats up her broccoli soup it smells AMAZING. So I finally tasted some, and decided to make some soup of my own. Sorry lady, my soup kicks your soups ass...and I didn't add any flour (who puts flour in a soup?)32 oz. chicken broth
32 oz. milk
16 oz. velveeta - cubed
16 oz. mushrooms - sliced
1 large white onion - chopped (I like big chops)
2 small broccoli heads (?) cut down to tree tops (I'm still 5 yrs. old)
1 large red pepper - chopped
1 large green pepper - chopped
2 cups baby carrots - sliced
salt & pepperBring chicken broth to a boil, a
dd mushrooms - cook 5 minutes, add onion - cook 5 minutes, add milk - heat, add all of the vegetables - cook 20 minutes, if you want your veggies cooked more fully then cook longer, I like my veggies crunchy a bit still, so I try not to cook them too long. Add the cheese when the soup is done, it will slightly thicken the soup and stick to the bottom if left heating, so add the cheese, stir till dissolved, and serve. I literally had to to stir it 3 times and it was completely dissolved. Salt and pepper to taste.
Oh my yummy, it turned out exactly how I dreamed it would, I could have eaten more but my boyfriend said don't be a pig. Jerk. Wonderful night, I like hanging out with V, she's chill and we do randomness and it's nice :) We watched The Young Victoria and this was the wine (see below) I grabbed it from the grocer because I liked the label, I liked it, especially the label, notice the label, isn't the label pretty? I did like the wine too...
Ive been eating a lot of fish, the more I eat, the more I want. Last weekend for breakfast it was over easy eggs on top of raw spinach with salmon. The weekend before Lunch was albacore steaks with sliced Roma tomatoes and avocado. A dinner I made recently I lightly steamed carrots, celery, and spinach with Mahi Mahi. I slivered the carrots really thin, I sliced my celery very angular, the spinach was just pretty raw and very fresh. I served in a bowl with the Mahi on top. It was delicious, and really light, and so flavorful. Yesterday I made Mahi, by itself, in the middle of the day, and ate all of it...I always cook my fish the same way. Stove top with olive oil, salt, pepper and maybe some basil or garlic depending on my tummy. I didn't take this picture, but it looks about right.
Fish Tacos, Sushi, Shrimp Burrito... I want fish almost everyday, maybe its my addictive personality. I do not understand how some people do not like fish, or seafood...how can anyone feel that way? I will never understand, I was meant to live on the ocean...and eat out of it...
