Easy Peasy Week!

We hosted a Mexican fiesta last night, and while it was fun and awesome...

 

 

...it resulted in a Sunday morning full of clean up and a Laura who is not so thrilled about messing up her pretty kitchen again today J 

 

So, this week is for those who sometimes feel the same!  I am also planning on going out to dinner at some point this week, and soups are great for freezing and reheating when you make too much!

Recipes

Protein Pancakes    

Rotisserie Chicken Salad and Rotisserie Chicken Soup

Butternut Squash and Apple Soup (I omitted the milk all together and used chicken stock in place, and took out the bouillon cubes…however, you could make this vegan by following the instructions or using veggie broth in place of milk!)
