Healthy Cheap Recipes- Vegetable Soup
I’m not really a fan of most vegetable only soups, they tend to be wimpy and bland in flavor and in fulfillment. But this is a nice exception. You can play around with the vegetables if you like, but try to keep them somewhat similar. It’s easy to have a muddled flavor with too many vegetables. Pick things you know already go well together. This is a supremely healthy soup.
2 diced carrots

If you do decide to use canned, you should still saute them with the onion to develop a little browning. Either way its good. Read more
This is a readily available recipe, but since its my blog and I am using it for archival purposes I am posting it here for future reference. It deserves the hype. I have a loaf rising as I type and looking forward to eating that soft deliciousness. If you’ve never made homemade bread you really should give it a try. It’s not as hard as some make it out to be and once you get the hang of it, you have a wonderful life skill that will be a blessing to yourself and others. Read more
