Tonya’s Turkey Chili
What better to serve a big crowd than some delicious chili? I'm not a big fan of the normal kind of chili, with beef and beans - bleah. Here's my take. Don't be fooled by the turkey into thinking this chili lacks flavor. It is packed full of spices and loaded with hearty taste. As… Continue reading Tonya’s Turkey Chili

Cabbage Soup Diet – Day 5
Day 4 was pretty crazy. I ended up eating 7 bananas and almost an entire half-gallon of milk. I felt pretty stuffed most of the day. Had a crab and shrimp Louie salad with no dressing at the rehearsal dinner, and took a bit of ribbing for not eating any of the peanut butter, cheesecake… Continue reading Cabbage Soup Diet – Day 5

But I have dropped 9 1/2 pounds in three days on this cabbage soup eating plan. Zero exercise.… Continue reading Cabbage Soup Diet – Day 4
Creamy Chicken and Rice
This basic recipe is on the back of a soup can. I added broth instead of water and a couple other spices, but pretty much I was feeling uninspired last night. This still turned out very tasty (according to my family) - the rice was almost the consistency of a risotto. I used frozen peas… Continue reading Creamy Chicken and Rice

Lunch: So, the soup is made and I had my first bowl...two bowls actually, for lunch. Not bad. Not bad… Continue reading Cabbage Recap: Day 1
