Leftover Turkey Soup

On Sunday, we were able to have Thanksgiving dinner with some of our BEST friends. The food was amazing, and the turkey was perfect and juicy! Needless to say, I cooked WAY too much food, and we have been having leftovers all week. Tonight, I decided that I wanted to make some soup. So here is the recipe for all of you to enjoy! You might need it next week to help with your turkey leftovers! :0)

2-3 c cut up turkey meat
1 large can cream of chicken soup plus, 1/2 the can water, and 1/2 can milk
1 can carrots
1 can and 1 small can of cream of corn
1 spoonful minced garlic
salt and pepper to taste

Add 1 TBS oil and garlic to your pot. Warm up and add the turkey. Saute the turkey for a few minutes. Add all other ingredients and bring to a boil.

Enjoy!

Recipes

Hey all! I decided that every once and a while (probley once a week or twice a month) I am going to post a recipe that we love. I know that I am always on the prowl of new healthy easy recipes. So here is the first of those to come! :0)

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies!!

(Now I know that cookies usually aren't considered healthy, but hey, these are made with veggies!! LOL)

1 Spice Cake Mix
1 Can of pumpkin (if you use the one that already has the spices, then you don't have to add anything else)
1 cup of chocolate chips/raisins

Mix all together, and spoon on a greased cookie sheet and bake for about 12 minutes at 350 degrees! Big HINT: DO NOT add any water!!! The pumpkin moistens everything!!

Happy Halloween!

We had such a great Halloween this year. Sarah and Cooper
came down to visit and go trick or treating with us. We had dinner and took pictures of the kids.

Heres the two hardest kids to take a picture of!
Here we have Vampire Hannah Montana
The Gang!
Little Pebbles
Maybe we had too much fun taking pictures! HEHEHE

Then headed out into the neighborhood for our treats. We ran into this scary monster, who wanted Cooper's banana. (love Cooper's face!)

Kierstin loved trick or treating. It didn't take her long to figure out that she would get candy if she knocked on the door. She was so cute! She would take at least two candies from each house, if they offered her the bowl. She was so cute they didn't get mad! :0) Little stinker!
