Talk about a hit! This beef and cabbage stew was a delicious and hearty meal for a cold winter night! I made this in the Instant Pot and it was super easy to make! I used lean,grass-fed ground beef for a super healthy bowl of comfort food! I added in a few red potatoes, but you can leave them out if you want . Add this to your menu soon! Here's what you need: 2 T olive oil 2 pounds lean ground beef (or ground turkey) salt and pepper to taste 1 onion, chopped 8 oz. baby carrot

This soup is not only healthy, it is absolutely scrumptious and very flavorful! It is Thai comfort food! This soup comes together quickly and is perfect for a weeknight dinner.

I know I just posted a chicken soup recipe yesterday, and I was going to save this one to post later......well it is a yucky rainy day today and I just thought that maybe someone out there needed a super-quick, delicious homemade chicken noodle soup recipe like right now! This recipe is so quick because you start with a grocery store bought rotisserie chicken and wow is it comfort in a bowl! Maybe you or a family member has the sniffles, or maybe you just crave something wa

Who doesn't like a Chicken Pot Pie? I mean, almost everyone does! It is one of the most comforting of all comfort foods. I took the idea of a Chicken Pot Pie and put it into a soup form...a much healthier take on the all-time favorite! This is so easy because it is another slow cooker recipe. It turned out very flavorful and satisfying! I didn't add any noodles to this, but you could add some if you want. I just didn't think it needed any! It is full of plump pieces of

I love gumbo that is full of chicken, shrimp and sausage. I love it thick and full of Creole and Cajun flavor! What's even better, is if you can have all that in an easy recipe for Louisiana Gumbo for the Crock Pot! I know traditional gumbo includes a roux....well I tried to make it a bit healthier and let it cook low and slow, and I have to tell you...I didn't miss the extra calories and fat from a roux. This was thick and full of flavor. It was a huge hit with the family!

It is pretty chilly outside today so a nice bowl of chili sounded good, but I decided to make a delicious variation of it....White Chicken Chili. Most of you have probably had some, but I wanted to share this recipe with you. It's simple, flavorful and comforting. I make it on the stove,or I have also just cooked the chicken with the onions and garlic, then added the rest in the Crock Pot to simmer for a couple of hours. Either way works! I finish it off with a squeeze of

Simple, wholesome, comforting, and delicious! Those are some of the words I use to describe this wonderful bowl of my butternut squash! I love butternut squash and I grow it in my garden most years. It has a similar taste to sweet potato, only milder. It is full of Vitamin A and C and just so delicious! I love to dice it and saute it, mash it like mashed potatoes and I love it made into this creamy soup! Here's all you need: 1 butternut squash, peeled and diced 2 red potat

It is finally feeling a little like fall here in Kentucky! Who knows, tomorrow it may be back to 95 degrees, but today....it feels like fall! So it's a great day to whip up this delicious, colorful, flavorful pot of Stuffed Pepper Soup! My new friend, who is also one of my college instructors, Robin Walker, shared this recipe with me and I made it today. I have to tell you...It is so easy and so delicious, you have to try it! Think of a de-constructed stuffed pepper made

It's not quite fall yet, but I am ready to start making fall food! This weekend looks like it might be a little rainy here in Paducah, so it might be a good time to make this delicious Chicken Taco Soup in your slow cooker. This recipe is so easy, I am almost embarrassed to post it, but it is just too good to not share! You just literally put everything in the slow cooker and let it go! After the chicken is fork tender, just pull it apart and it is ready to serve! I garnish

Ok, I know it's not exactly soup weather yet, but one of my sons, Clark, just returned from a trip to Iceland and he was served this iconic soup there, called Fiskisupa, or fish soup, and wanted me to try my hand at making it. I'm always up for a culinary challenge, and this soup came together beautifully and with relative ease! Now as a disclaimer, I would not exactly say this soup is super healthy due to the fact that it has heavy cream in it, but aside from that, it is
