Recipes anyone?

Made or heard about something new that you want to share...? TGIF!!!!

Morning, hon! I have a lot of left over turkey in the freezer, and even though this recipe doesn't call for meat, I cut up the turkey and add to it. I think it's a real good comfort soup. INGREDIENTS 1 cup dried Great Northern beans 2/3 large onion, chopped 1-1/3 garlic cloves, minced 2 teaspoons olive or canola oil 2-2/3 LF, or LS, cups chicken broth 2-2/3 cups water 2 medium carrots, sliced 1-1/3 medium red bell peppers, diced 1-1/3 celery ribs, chopped 1/3 cup medium pearl barley 1/3 cup minced fresh parsley, divided 1-1/3 bay leaves 3/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme 1/4 teaspoon pepper 2/3 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained 1-2 cups cooked turkey, or chicken cook the onion, garlic, celery, and red pepper, and carrots, in the oil, and then, simply add it all together. I usulally do this one on the stove. If you don't like thyme, leave it out, and don't forget to take the bay leaves out! ha It's a pretty healthy soup, I think. I'll try to look it up.

That looks delish Sharon! You and Bridget have the best recipes!

Man, ALL of the recipes look SO good! Makes my head spin! ha Nancy, I have to let you know, the chicken dish was, yummy! I think, because the recipe called for frozen breasts, it was more like soup, but the chicken, was amazingly, moist! Next time, I think I'll put a can of drained LaPerfidia Spanish rice in with the mix, to thicken some. The way it turned out, I put a heated tortilla, in the bottom of the soup bowl, and then put the soup on top. Was VERY good! The cream cheese, added a great creaminess! Geesh, I sound like a food critic! ha Thanks, again, hon!

Well, I figure, with the LF, and LS broth, and if you use LS tomatoes, around 180 cal. per 1 1/2 cup serving, and with the turkey, and beans,and barley, around 20grms of protein! If anyone finds fault with this, please look it all up, and let us know! I will not quit eating it, anyway, as it's really good!

Ron....that sounds great but I have a major question for you. What do you mean you hate onions? Does that mean that you never ate (or didn't like) White Castle? Those little WC's are responsible for a good 10 of my pounds lol !! I didn't know that anyone hated onions !! I'm going to try your recips...and I'll let you know how it tastes with the smelly onions!! - Ann

I have had a strong aversion to onions since I was a kid. If I see even a spec of one in something, I can't eat it. It makes nme nausous. I am sure it's a mental thing, but there could even be an alergic thing going on there as well. I have no problem with garlic, by the way. I have owned and was head chef for two successful restaurants. I cooked almost all of my recipes without onions, even dishes that usually contain the . . . and no one ever missed them. There were some things, like onion soup, where it's noticeable if there are no onions, but for the most part - they really don't matter with the taste. I know this is a personal issue, and I don't tell anyone else not to eat onions. They just make me sick. And, no . . . I would not eat a White Castle hamburger, even without the onions. I draw the line on "roadkill"!!

can you do this one in the crockpot? sounds good...with or without those you-know-whats
