Another Tuesday and another cheap and easy meal. This time I was so afraid that Dinosaur would not eat this and want a peanut butter and jelly sandwich…but he LOVED it. He ate every spoonful. It was a hearty dinner for a cold night. this is why LOVE soups, you can add anything to the soup, stretch out the meal, and save money.
