I just wanted to share a couple successes I had last week in the kitchen. Since I'm cooking much more often than I ever have in my life, it's been kinda fun-and scary-to see what I might come up with.
I made a roast in the crockpot. I threw in some onions, a can of Cream of Mushroom soup, some Worcestershire sauce, a clove of garlic, some beef bullion, beef gravy, water and some salt and pepper. It all sounded good, but would it be?
The result...
Yum! It was a juicy roast with a nice sauce to go over it!
Knowing we probably wouldn't get to the leftover roast, I took it and made soup.
Again, just kinda threw a bunch of stuff into the crock...the meat, onions, a can of peas, a can of corn, can of carrots, beef bullion, water, and rice...let it cook for 6 hours or so. We had it for lunch the next day and the it got a big two thumbs up from Henry and hubby. Henry ate so much I thought he might split down the sides! I couldn't believe he was eating all those veggies and asking for more. YAY!
I don't usually serve canned veggies, but they were a total steal at Target and it worked slick in this soup....plus it was easy. I quickly put this all together in just a few minutes because I had everything pre-sliced or canned. I made it just before we ran out the door for dinner at my Mother-In-Law's.
I think I am going to offer more canned veggies to Henry to see if that is what he will prefer...some veggies are better than none, right?

That is awesome that Henry loved it and got some veggies! Aaron seems to hate beef, but he does love broccoli. I think he is going to turn green soon!
ReplyDeleteI wish Henry liked broccoli! The only veggie he really likes is peas. And corn, but corn technically isn't a veggie. I'm starting to sneak stuff into his normal food to get the veggies down!
