Slow Cooker Kid-Friendly Minestrone Soup

A soup so good, your kids won't even realize it's good for them

When we lived in Edmonton, one of our family night traditions was to head to West Edmonton Mall, park at the “Bourbon Street” entrance and head to The Old Spaghetti Factory for dinner. No matter what meal you order at Old Spaghetti Factory, it comes with soup or salad to start and dessert. My girls love Caesar salad, but my son always ordered the minestrone soup which thrilled me because it is full of veggies!

Be a Weeknight Warrior with Quick Broccoli Cheddar Soup

There's No reason to go hungry as long as this recipe is around

broccoli soup recipe

The days are getting shorter and colder and that means it’s time for lazy evenings by the fire and steaming bowls of stick-to-your bones soup. The only problem - besides dealing with kids’ snowsuits and missing mittens - is just because the snow is here and all I feel like doing is hibernating, it doesn’t mean our evenings are getting any less busy. But on the rare occasion where we actually have an evening at home, this soup is fast, easy, and the perfect cold-weather meal.

White Cheddar And Ale Soup Recipe

So Good My Husband Offered To Do The Dishes!

This White Cheddar and Ale Soup is one of those meals that make my husband feel loved. So loved in fact that he even offered to do the dishes! I don't know if it was the smell of bacon and garlic that filled the house or because it only took me a total of 30 minutes from the time I offered homemade soup for dinner to the time I put it in front of him. Either way, this soup recipe is a keeper! 

Simply fry some bacon.

Throw some veggies in a pot.

Slow Cooker French Onion Soup

The Best French Onion Soup Ever (According to My Husband)

My husband loves French Onion Soup. I have personally witnessed him eat French Onion Soup in greasy spoon diners in rural parts of this country and in swanky hotel lounges overlooking city centres while sipping $20 cocktails. He is somewhat of a connoisseur so the first time I made it for him and it didn’t quite turn out the way I hoped, I never made it again. Until now!

Throw Everything In The Pot, Set It And Forget It

Usually by the time I am done brining and roasting a turkey, baking stuffing and gravy-ing everything (not to mention cooking all the sides AND dessert) my kitchen looks like a bomb went off and I never want to see another turkey again.
