Soup Season Is Coming!

The calendar says fall is on its way, and the weather man says we are getting some cooler temperatures. There is no better time to share a few of my favorite soup recipes! Is there anything better than a pot of soup simmering on the stove, something warm baking in the oven to go with it, and everybody wandering through the kitchen asking, "When are we eating?" Bring on the comfort foods!

BeBe's Creamy Potato Soup

I found this recipe on TikTok several years ago and it is a family staple in the cooler months.

Ingredients:

1 bag of Great Value Southern Potatoes

1 container of Great Value Chicken Broth

1 can of Cream of Chicken Soup

1 bag of Oscar Meyer Bacon Bits

1 block of Great Value Cream Cheese

To cook, place your bag of potatoes, chicken broth, cream of chicken soup and 1/2 bag of bacon bits into a crock pot. add salt and pepper to taste. Top with your cream cheese. You can cut the cream cheese into chunks or place the whole block and then break apart as it melts. Cover and cook on high for 6 hours or low for 8. in the last 15 minutes put the rest of your bacon bits in and stir.

We usually serve this with crescent rolls or plain, but I guess you could also use saltine crackers. It is absolutely the easiest dump and go soup you will ever make!

Carlie's Creamy Tortellini Soup

My daughter Carlie gave this recipe to me not long after she got married, so it became "Carlie's Soup" from that point forward!

Ingredients:

1pkg. Frozen Three Cheese Tortellini (19 oz.)

28 oz. Crushed Tomatoes

32 oz. Chicken Broth

1 pkg. Mozzarella Cheese

1 block of Cream Cheese

Brown your sausage on the stove. In your crock pot, add tortellini, cooked sausage, crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, and seasonings of choice (we use salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning). Mix and cook on high for two hours. Cube your cream cheese and add it plus half a bag of mozzarella cheese. Cook on high for 30 minutes to an hour.

This is creamy and delicious!

Nanny's Vegetable Soup

My mom has made this soup since I was little. It is very hearty and filling. I only make it if Trey will not be eating with us because he doesn't like it (weirdo, lol).

Ingredients

3lb. ground beef

3 cans Veg All

1 can Whole Kernal Corn

1 can of Rotel

4-5 cans of Tomato Sauce

Brown and drain your ground beef. Dump your meat, and all other ingredients into a stock pot. Season with salt and pepper, Let it cook on the stove for an hour on medium heat then let simmer until you are ready to eat.

This soup is excellent when paired with cornbread or saltine crackers.

Soup Season is Coming, y'all!!

Now tell me--what's the first soup you make when the weather starts to cool down?

Much Love,

Beth

Monday Morning Chit-Chat

Happy Monday, friends! Well, here we are again. Another Monday morning, another fresh week, and another cup of coffee that I'm hoping will magically give me the energy to accomplish all the things on my to-do list. Spoiler alert: It probably won't. But I'm going to drink it anyway. I thought we would start this week with a little old-fashioned chit-chat. Nothing too serious, nothing life changing. Just a little catching up on life lately, a few random thoughts, and whatever else happens to pop into my head. you know, the kind of conversation we'd have if you stopped by my house, pulled up a chair, and stayed a while. So grab your coffee (or whatever gets you going in the morning), and let's visit. First things first...it's October! This year is absolutely flying by. I love this time of year. The cozy evenings, the fall decorations, the soups and comfort foods, and the excuse to stay home in my pajamas a little longer. Now if Arkansas could just get the memo t...

What's Up Wednesday

Happy What's Up Wednesday! Today I am linking up with Shay and Sheaffer for another "What's Up Wednesday" Let's do this! What we're eating this week... So far this week we have made: Wings on the Pit Boss Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Chops You can't get any easier than wings and chops! Especially when they are on the grill and slow cooker!! What I'm Reminiscing About... Septembers past: September is Trey's birth month. It is also the month that my grandpa died four years ago. This is the year that Papa gave Trey a gun for his birthday. He was so proud to give it to Trey and you can tell by the look on Trey's face how happy he was. Such a sweet moment to remember. Our county fair is also in September. My kids used to love it when they were younger. They still love rides, just not the traveling kind :) This was Wrenley's school picture last year. She has grown so much in one year :) What I'm Loving... Makena and my mom have started mak...

Be Her: When Our Ideal Self Becomes an Idol

Ella Langley's "Be Her" got me thinking about something I think a lot of women struggle with- the woman we think we should be. You know her. She's more disciplined. More confident. More put together. She exercises, keeps the house clean, reads her Bible every morning, never loses her patience, and somehow always has good hair. We tell ourselves, If I could just be her..... And there's nothing wrong with wanting to grow. But what happens when the woman we want to become turns into an idol? Sometimes we become so focused on our ideal self that we forget to ask God who He wants us to become. There's a subtle difference between praying, "Lord, make me more like Christ," and saying, "Lord, help me to become the woman I've decided I need to be." One is surrender. The other can easily become control. Philippians 1:6 reminds us that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. God isn't waiting fo...
