    Thank you! @AR10at50,

    My favorite soups:
    Creamy tomato basil
    Chicken and dumpling ( don't eat as often, because I love it too much, and can over do it)
    Chili
    I really like the prepackaged salad kits too. It makes it so simple to fix and add some additional protein if needed.

    Being single and living alone, it is much easier eating soups and salads than fixing a big meal everyday. Most my meals are simple and easy to fix, with 2 or 3 days a week, I'll fix a more traditional meal.

    @SheilaBoneham, I like your idea about trying a new soup every week.

    I'm going to start trying a different soup every week. I made the minestrone and cabbage soup before. Last week I made the cabbage soup. Still have some in the freezer. Thanks for the idea.

    What’s your favorite soup recipe? I’ve been making soups every Sunday since New Year, and am going to try to keep it up with a new soup each week. So far, I’ve made minestrone, mulligatawny, and cabbage soups. I’m looking for this Sunday’s fare as we “speak.” Just curious about other people’s favs!


    I know it's not the right season, but I love pumpkin & ginger soup, also leek & potato.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    1/17 / 185.4 / Today consisted of work, a walk at lunch, a Peloton ride, some stretching, and a core strength workout. Looking forward to a good round ahead and moving into the low 180's.
    1/18 / 184.4 / Another solid Peloton workout done, this time at lunch since it was colder than I wanted it to be for my walk. I am going to take my next FTP test on Thursday morning to see how I've improved. Work is taking a lot of mental energy so I'm thankful for the good habits I've got in place to support me right now.
    1/19 / 183.2 / Change of plans on the Peloton FTP test so I ended up doing a training ride today instead. My husband and I are doing the Pelo Fondo event this weekend so I decided to postpone a new FTP until next week.
    1/20 / 181.4 / Got out for a short walk at lunch and now I'm waiting for my turn on the Peloton... my husband and I are both obsessed so we have to take turns lol.
    1/21 / 183 / So ecstatic the weekend is here! Mostly a rest day today to gear up for the PeloFondo event tomorrow. Hoping to get 100KM done in one day!

    To all the super soup people… most of the soups I make when I have a hambone or a bone from an entire turkey breast. I just add vegetables that I have. Every day I spend time chopping vegetables in the morning and sometimes I have snippets that I don’t want to use, like exterior leaves from Brussel sprouts. If I roast the loose leaves with the halved Brussels sprouts, they burn. I’m just too frugal to toss away any good food, so I have a plastic bag in my freezer where I dump these extra vegetables. I use these, as well as others, to make a soup. Also, a favorite soup which I haven’t made for a while, is split pea soup from the book, the joy of cooking. I truly haven’t made it for years but it was simply a bag of dried split peas, cut up carrots and onions, a hambone, and a bunch of water. I’m sure I might be missing something here, but is it truly is a simple recipe. It is soooo good. I made it when my kids were still in the house and everyone loved it, but my son did nickname it, horse vomit, due to the color. Ya gotta love teens.

    @CamandJarvis - I had noticed you weren't posting and worried about your Mom. I'm so sorry to hear of everything else going on. Your family is in my thoughts.

    @SheilaBoneham - Our favorite soup to make is sausage corn chowder. It's the only recipe I have that uses the spice marjoram, and we make it so much I go through a bottle every Winter.
