I love soup. One of the reasons fall and winter are great times of year is that soup is almost always right! Even in Orange County, CA! I love pea and bean soups and have another recipe for Split Pea Soup on the blog but in this version, I use Trader Joe’s 10 Minute Barley in place of the potatoes and leave out some of the seasonings.

When making this soup, it is always about desired consistency. I used 8 cups of water/stock but you can always opt for more or less. It is all up to you and your personal preferences. I recommend starting out with 6 cups and adding more, a little at a time.

This soup can also be made in the crock pot and the dried, split peas can be soaked overnight to cut down on cooking time.

Any questions/comments, please let me know.

ENJOY!

One of the most delicious things about this nutloaf is that each ingredient presents an individual flavor. The outcome is an entree with a variety of starring sensations that also harmoniously meld together.

I have included, in the directions section, 2 different topping options for making the dish regular or gluten free.

ENJOY!

I grew up in an Italian/French household and pasta and dessert were staples. I really love both but as we know they can pile on the pounds. When I can, I try to subsititute healthier ingredients. Spaghetti Squash is really easy to use in just about any dish in place of pasta. A word of advice the trick is to make sure you cook spaghetti squash ompletely before breaking into strands.

The addition of the bok choy and zucchini not only makes this dish healthier but also satisfying.

I prefer it hot but is also great cold.

ENJOY!
