Vegetable Soup with Pasta

I am kosher which means we do not eat milk products and meat at the same meal.  When, I selected this recipe, I knew, I would have to choose if I was going to make the soup with the cheese or with the meat.  We have been eating little meat so I decided, a hearty soup with sausage would go a long way.

Browning the onions and sausage gave a rich flavor to this soup and there was a contrast in textures between the noodles and sausage.  The vegetables, zucchini, tomato, onion, carrot and peas were just the right taste sensations for a soup filled with flavor.  This one should be seen on our table, quite often.

This is only the third recipe I have made from Thirty Minute Pasta and I can say, they all have been delicious.  Each one has been easy to make and fulfilled the required 30 minutes.  It is a pleasure, to come home from work and have a delicious filling meal, on the table in such a short time.





 I bet you would like to join in the fun and cook with us.  Having light pasta dishes, once a week, is such a pleasure.  If you are a pasta lover, come on and join us.

    This looks great. It's hard to get my kids to eat veggies but they do like soups, so I make a lot of them.
    What kind of sausage do you use? I have never tried sausage! I always think of it as a non-kosher ingredient...

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

Image
It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Brussels Sprouts - Power Food - Re-post

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I
