SpicyTomato Vegetable Soup - no noodles
I'm trying to reduce starches in my diet - especially in areas where I won't miss it so much. I really enjoy this soup and do not miss the noodles at all!
Spicy Tomato Vegetable Soup
3 cups chicken stock
3 cups pureed tomatoes (I had canned my own)
10 cups water
200 grams diced chicken
1 grated carrot
1 cup diced green beans
2 leaks- sliced thin
3 celery stalks sliced thin
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. garlic powder
3/4 tsp. thyme
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 bay leaf
1/4 cup dried parsley
1-2 tablespoons diced hot peppers or sambal oelek - depending on how much heat you want.
salt - (I used 4 teaspoons as my homemade stock had no added salt. First taste your soup before adding salt)
Bring to a boil in a large Dutch oven, reduce heat and simmer for one hour. Adjust seasonings if necessary.

Lasy Wife Dinner
Now I have no idea why it is called "Lazy Wife Dinner" - I would prefer a name like "Simple Dinner for Overworked Mom's". My mom found this recipe recently in a book she read about the Amish. It's a decent meal - quick and easy to make.
Lazy Wife Dinner
1 can cream of mushroom or cream of celery soup - gluten free if needed
3/4 macaroni (gluten free) uncooked
1 1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 cup frozen vegetables
1 cup potatoes, diced
1 cup carrots, diced
1 cup meat of choice, diced
1 onion, diced
Mix together and bake in 9x 13 casserole for 1 1/2 hours at 350.
