Today was a workday for me. The day truly began for me when Eli (2) threw up his breakfast on me. Walk, Park, Bath, Backyard play, Dance Off, Nap, Snack, Living room football. By the time the kids went home at four I was exhausted and clueless as to what to make for dinner. Kyle (24, husband) has been working long hours and is more stressed than he usually is. Almost nothing relieves stress for Kyle more than coming home to a good meal.
But I DID NOT have a good meal in me. As I stared into my empty fridge I wished for the dinner elves to sweep me off to the spa as they prepared a gourmet 4 course meal.
4:15 No elves…still staring
4:30 panic sets in…no elves
4:45 took a bath…no one made super while I washed my hair.
5:00 INSPIRATION
and here is yet another
LAZY REAL PEOPLE RECIPE
Stuff Soup
Get out a soup pot fill it with some water.
Look in your fridge and freezer for leftovers
Here is the rule:
If it has Meat or Veggies, or Rice or Noodles put it in the pot of water.
Add an onion and garlic chopped if you want
Add some frozen corn, peas, broccoli, whatever you want
Add a couple bouillon cubes (beef, chicken, vegetable doesn’t matter)
Let it come to a boil.
Serve it with crackers or not
Enjoy!!!
I make a stock pot full of Stuff soup tonight and the boys (Kyle--husband JP--Brother Mac--jps friend and employee)each had three bowls and it is ALL gone
