ooh! that recipe does sound good! I think I will add it to the list to try for next week.

Mmmmmm….that sounds so yummy! I can’t imagine feeding a family of 8…I have a hard enough time to figure out what to feed the hubby, me, and our VERY picky toddler.

Those recipes sound great! If you get a chance can you post one of them on my blog post titled recipe race? I am trying something new with recipes. Thanks

oh I used to use several of those ingredients regularly but then I realized that the MSG in them was causing my migraines! Bye bye mushroom soup, bye bye Onion Soup mix, bye bye dry Italian & ranch dressing mixes…
sad isn’t it? We were so broke that we ate a LOT of canned soups and I used dry mixes all the time… I was so sad when I found out I was the cause of my migraines!! Almost all canned soup and dry mixes have it. No fair! I’ve been looking for an onion soup mix replacement for years!

If your grocers offer a natural food section, try looking there Tara! You may be shocked at what they offer. Finding one that offers an expansive enough selection is the biggest challenge. Another option is to make your own mixes and store them in airtight containers. Just my 2 cents on that.
You can still make almost everything I love without the cream of mushroom soup believe it or not! Worchestershire sauce, beef base and sour cream are amazing for making stroganoff, no soup necessary – there’s even ways to substitute for the Worchestershire sauce if necessary. I’ll try and remember to post some recipes soon with suggestions for those alternatives…just for you
