Soup Sunday | Lasagna Cheese Soup & Italian Herb Bread for the Bread Machine Recipe
This week I tried a recipe that was mailed to me unexpectedly. I was surfing the web looking for a new recipe to try for the family and this popped up in my email. It was submitted to me by the founder of eMeals.com, Jane DeLaney. I substituted TVP for the ground beef and vegetable broth instead of chicken to make it vegetarian friendly.

Dove Is On A Self Esteem Mission | The Real Truth About Beauty

I was the girl that finally dropped out because I didn’t … [Read more...]
