~Hearty Minestrone~

On a chilly day a bowl of hearty hot soup is always enjoyed at dinner. Hearty Minestrone is a great choice. It is filled with colorful nutritious vegetables, too. Spinach, kidney beans, green beans and carrot slices are some of the veggies that can be found in each yummy spoonful.

When I prepare a pot of this soup there are always extra portions left after dinner. Those extra portions are placed in single serve plastic freezer containers. After labeling/ dating they will find a place in our freezer. They will make easy dinners on other nights.

Do you make soup and freeze the extra portions? They do come in handy!

Enjoy!
Yummy!

Cornbread

Cornbread
cooling

It has been on my "to do" list! Not just for the past 2 days, but for the past 5 days. Baking a Cornbread! I could almost taste it whenever I looked at my recipe here on my blog. Yum! A piece cut in half, heated up in the microwave for a few seconds and then a small amount of butter/ margarine on top makes a delicious breakfast. 

This is definitely a favorite breakfast! Not just for the next day, either. After it cools I cut the Cornbread into individual servings and place each in a sandwich bag. Then, I place the individual servings in a larger freezer bag. 

Cornbread freezes very well! For a quick breakfast, take the needed portions out of the freezer and heat in the microwave. 

This is easy to prepare. For my Cornbread recipe, click here.

Enjoy!
Yummy!
