Tuna Fish Patties
This is a great recipe I came up with to get rid of leftover bread. I generally use the contents of my vegetable drawer here so I kind of throw in whatever I have at the time, so you can use your own judgment. They taste really nice when eaten with sour cream or low-fat mayo or even on their own - though my husband prefers ketchup. I generally use this recipe as a guideline, so have fun with it!
Homemade Vegetable Beef Soup
This is a delicious vegetable beef soup recipe that my mom used to make when I was young. When I started cooking for my family, I made this my own by adding and taking items away. I hope your family enjoys this as much as mine does.
Roasted Beet and Potato Soup
I adapted this roasted beet and potato soup recipe from a vegetarian soup when my twin toddlers went through a soup-only phase. They love it, and luckily, the rest of the family enjoys it too! It's a nice, hearty purée that is super-easy, especially if you roast the potatoes and beets beforehand.
