Once upon a time, I tried some raw cashew butter on my sliced apples… and I hated it. The end. 🙂 Ha- seriously though, it just had an odd flavor to me in comparison to my beloved almond butter. I felt like it had too much of a “cheesy” flavor which was not my favorite for a sweet snack. But- ever since then, I have been wanting…
Do any of you watch the show “Chopped” on Food Network as much as I do? Random oddball ingredients & 30 minutes or less to create a judge-worthy dish… I feel like that’s me on a Sunday when we need to go grocery shopping. 😉 I often think that I could totally win that show… unless my basket contained silken tofu or chickens’ feet.

I have been craving soups lately, most likely due to the weather. & As much as I love using my crockpot, stovetop soups are sometimes more realistic for me when I don’t have (or take) the time to plan ahead.
