Soup Fusion

Happy Monday all! I am glad you all dug the Friday Treats ~ Those Dark Chocolate Almond Butter Cups are pretty tasty.  This weekend was AWESOME, but, today’s eats might have been even better.  I might be impartial though since there wasn’t too much cooking on my part involved.

But, first….a few weekend highlights.

I baked up The Husband’s request Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookies ~ it was totally a good reason to bust out and use my new fancy red KitchenAid Mixer

We also “harvested” Mr. Stripey ~ The Husband’s HUGE heirloom tomato plant.

I whipped up a big batch of Homemade Crock Pot Stewed Diced Tomatoes ~ WOW!  All I can say is I’ll probably never buy/use a can again!  Recipe and How-To coming up this week!

We also saw ~ The Social Network!  It was SO COOL~ I honestly never knew there was so much history involved in the creation of Facebook.  It was really interesting ~ you totally need to see it if you haven’t   If you have, WHAT DID YOU THINK OF IT?

Ok, moving onto today.  My eats were not super exciting from a culinary perspective, but, they were just as delicious in every simple way.

Berries ‘n; Cream

1/2 cup TJ’s 0% Greek Yogurt

1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup raspberries

Drizzle of Agave ~ MMMMM – LOVE! (2 points)

Protein power ~ Morning Star Soy Sausage (2 pts)

Surprisingly breakfast and being super busy at work held me over until lunch time ~ 4 hours!

Last year I became a bit obsessed with Whole Foods Soup Bar because I discovered how AMAZING it can be to mix & match your soups!  Who says you have to have just one flavor when you pay the same price for the cup……Honestly though, I really ended up mixing my soups last year because I couldn’t decide which flavor I wanted

SOUP FUSION = Mixing & Matching Your soups because they ALL sound good ~ It is the perfect solution for the indecisive person like me.

1/2 Turkey Chili and 1/2 Southwestern Chicken Chili

My friend and I shared this AMAZING Organic Ciabatta Bread (only $0.99!)

I totally ate ALL of my soup and 1/2 that loaf of bread (9 point estimate)

The Husband declared a Monday “Date Night” tonight which included NO COOKING.  Um, you don’t have to twist my arm when I can have someone cook this for me

10 points and worth every HEAPING point.  I <3 Chipotle & their Guacamole!

We had planned on seeing The Town, but, the next move time wasn’t for 2 hours :/  I think we are going to watch our NetFlix ~ Valentine’s Day.

This week I am hoping to share 1-2 vacation recaps. that Stewed Tomato How-To (it’s so easy) and some delicious new recipes I plan on trying

Have you all seen any good movies or are there any movies out there you want to see??  Do tell because I am always looking for fun new things to watch.

Night all!
