I grew up on Campbell's® chicken soups but my favorite was the NoodleO's®. Mainly due to the manageable size noodle for the spoon but also because the texture of the noodle was firmer and not mushy like the others. As an adult, I set out to make a copycat version and it took several attempts before getting it right. My previous attempts lacked the tang that you get with a can and the secret ingredient ended up being lemon juice. Who would have thought? Serve with crackers if desired.

Roasted Sweet Potato, Black Bean, and Chorizo Breakfast Bowls
These breakfast bowls are a change from the usual and are loaded with various flavors and textures. Home- or store-made chorizo is best, but feel free to use your favorite brand. You may combine sweet potatoes, black beans, chorizo, and avocados before topping them with the egg. I like to top mine with cotija cheese, cilantro, and chipotle hot sauce.
Cranberry-Orange Biscotti
I received this recipe from a friend, and it's great! I use the convection bake setting on my oven, so it's usually 50 degrees hotter than normal ovens. you may want to add 50 degrees depending on your oven.
Pumpkin Spice Latte Pancakes
These pumpkin spice latte pancakes are perfect for a nippy fall day. The coffee flavor is not overwhelming, but it's not subtle either! We like them with cinnamon butter and maple syrup.
