I posted this recipe the other day:

http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.jsp?articleId=281474977616332&nav=Namespace

for veggie beef soup, which really enjoy.

For my adaptation, I used trimmed and diced chuck steak, omitted the potatoes, added some Mrs Dash Garlic Herb and cooked it for almost 2 hours for tender beef and extra flavor.

I served this wonderful (and easy) soup with Buttermilk Quick Bread. The recipe for the bread can be found here: http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.jsp?articleId=281474977634752&nav=MyGatherhttp://media-files.gather.com/images/d987/d595/d745/d224/d96/f3/full.jpg

Oh, sure...omit the taters...something I'd eat. I wouldn't even pick this all apart; just 'fish' around in it to try and eat all the same types of veggies first, then the meat and the broth last. Of course, I'll have saltines and butter to dunk, dunk, dunk and leave the bread to dunk, dunk, dunk after the crackers are gone. What else we having? I just can't have soup and bread for dins.

Mmm ... mmm ... good!!!! Really, Shan ... this looks awesome. It's one of my favorite suppers!

Looks tasty.

Rob, I think you have OCD for real.

Looks great! I love to make homemade soups. When you are on a tight budget it is a great way to save money.
Yes this works for me. Some one asked me where the veggies were in my dinner, but I don't think you want me sending her here, lol.

oh that bread looks good

This looks tasty, Shanniyah. Pass me the hab powder and let's eat!

This looks really good. I haven't had any veg beef soup in years. I definitely could eat a big bowl of this. Your bread looks yummy too! :)
Cindy B. Mar 23, 2009, 7:15pm EDT
Look's good, nice big chunk's of steak too! =)
Lou Anne L. Mar 23, 2009, 7:21pm EDT
I could definately get into a bowl of this right now...I adore soup. This looks awesome and filling!
Delicious & that bread looks really good too.

We had an unusual supper. We just got back in town and didn't have much in the house so we made pancakes, special pancakes. My hubby saw a brownie mix and added some to the pancake mix. It was sinfully good. Probably not the most healthy but mmmmm good.
Ava's Mom (formerly known as Robiyah) Mar 23, 2009, 8:00pm EDT
But could you hurry and put some potatoes in it?
Rob Appell Mar 23, 2009, 8:17pm EDT
Girlie, you ain't seen OCD until you've visited my home and see me in action. It's not severe...as long as you don't know what's going on inside my head. THAT'S where a lot of the action takes place; nothing physical. I eat exactly the way you suspect I so...even at home when I'm alone...and I've made something myself. I count a lot, too...every step every time going up and down the same set of stairs I've been using for a year and a half, how many swallows of a liquid I take, certain numbers of foods I eat. And don't move anything or I'll HAVE to out it back where it belongs. Alright, so I'm cracked and whacked. Just be happy you don't have to deal with me in real life. (You ain't seen nothing yet, mama!)

Clean out the fridge = soup time. Simple. Has anyone priced a stupid little CAN of soup lately? Crazy.
☀ Aunt Shanny Mar 23, 2009, 8:24pm EDT
Cracked and whacked! Wheeeeeee!

That's why we get along so good. Everything I pick out of my food because it's out of proportion you would eat.
☀ Aunt Shanny Mar 23, 2009, 8:25pm EDT
RB, I also tossed in some green onion ends to clean out my crisper drawer :)
Ava's Mom (formerly known as Robiyah) Mar 23, 2009, 8:52pm EDT
I used to have that little problem, like Apple. I used to have to force myself to stop remembering how many bites of cereal I had eaten and how many times I chewed before I swallowed.

I still count my paper towels by 3's though (at work since I don't pay for it); I use 3 at a time. I eat elbow noodles 3 at a time, I wipe 3 times when I poop ... is this something I should be posting here?

wow that looks delicious!
Larry H. Mar 23, 2009, 10:46pm EDT
thanks for sharing
Phyllis R. Mar 23, 2009, 10:48pm EDT
Looks delicious..........soup and bread!
Rob Appell Mar 23, 2009, 11:05pm EDT
Oh my...I'm not even as bad as The Brat when it comes to counting wipes! (I'm worse in another way. I use two sheets...wipe...and keep folding and wiping until I get it down to the size of a postage stamp for one last wipe before it gets dropped in.) I told you, you wouldn't believe me when it comes to the things I do. (A roll of TP lasts me over a month...and none of that soft on my azz stuff. Scottissue...1,000 sheets lasts me forever.)
Robyn F. Mar 23, 2009, 11:08pm EDT
even tho its spring, i still love soup....at least till the heat waves set in:)
☀ Aunt Shanny Mar 24, 2009, 4:09am EDT
I use the EXACT same length of TP every time.

My patterns aren't counting so much as repetitions that have to be done before I can go on to something else.
Tim T. Mar 24, 2009, 5:46am EDT
We made this - good stuff
Courtney C. Mar 24, 2009, 7:17am EDT
Looks delicious!

Well, it does sound good, and it is definitely easy to put together. My husband really likes to use hamburger meat in his soups. Normally what we do now is make a stock pot full of the basics, then split the soup in half and he puts his hamburger in his and I either leave it vegetable or add chicken. That works out well.
Victoria H. Mar 25, 2009, 8:37am EDT
Well, hubby and I would eat this, but the kids....nah. I cannot get them to eat soups well at all. The only soup Haley is obsessed with...........well, there's two now that I think about it...........is oyster stew and cream of mushroom soup. The two oddest soups that one would never expect a five year old to like. LOL
☀ Aunt Shanny Mar 25, 2009, 9:05am EDT
That always works well, Lynn. I do something like that with chili. I add several habs to mine and leave Matt's alone.

My grandma used to make oyster stew. Only one person liked it, but we all ate it.
Elaine A. Mar 25, 2009, 9:46am EDT
I would love this ;-)
I love soup, even when it's hot outside I eat soup.
Auntie Shels Mar 26, 2009, 10:33pm EDT
Hab Schmab. Scab. No need to go and screw it up with those blazing peppers, but I agree with you, RobiMommy about the tades.

And I don't think I ever got to try the oyster stew. I was too young.
☀ Aunt Shanny Mar 27, 2009, 7:35am EDT
Too young? One year younger and you couldn't try it?
