So I was looking for something to have for dinner one night and I found this on www.food.com. It sounded really good so I decided to try it and it was good! Below is me modified version of the recipe, I hope you enjoy! 

Ingredients:

6 cups vegetable broth 
2 Tablespoon tomato paste
4 cups chopped cabbage

1 cup green beans
3 cup chopped kale
1 yellow onion
1 cup carrot
8 garlic cloves (or more!), minced 

2 cups navy beans, cooked
1/2 teaspoon basil 
1 teaspoon oregano
salt and pepper to taste 

1. Spray pot with olive oil and saute kale, onions, carrots and garlic for 5 minutes.

2. Add broth, tomato paste, cabbage, green beans (I used our home-canned ones), navy beans, basil, oregano, salt and pepper.

3. Simmer for about 5-10 minutes until all vegetables are tender then add Zucchini and simmer for another 5 minutes or so.

Serves about 12

We also really liked putting milk or plain yogurt in each bowl when it was ready to serve.
. 

Be happy and Healthy!

Road Trip

After our wedding, Joe and I took a trip to Florida the first week of October. The weather was beautiful and some of the views were wonderful. Thought I would share a few of the landscape pictures we took in Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida. It was the first time I could remember seeing the ocean, so swimming and driving around the coastal highways on a moped were some of my favorite parts of our vacation.
I hope you enjoy these pictures.

Tips for When You Have a Cold

No one likes to have a cold! The stuffy nose, sore throat and maybe coughing, it can drive you nuts! But what can you do once you have it? Lydia has put together some tips that will help you relieve some of the typical cold symptoms. -Bethany 
Tip #1:
My mom has found a super easy recipe for natural cough syrup. You can take a spoon full of it straight or mix it with some hot tea. I prefer the tea method. When I tried it, it really soothed my throat! Here's the recipe.


Cough Syrup

1/4 cup Olive oil
2 Tablespoons Lemon juice
3/4 cup Honey

Mix all the ingredients together and store in a glass jar.

Tip #2:

If you feel a cold coming on, drink apple cider vinegar diluted in water. It will lessen the effects of the cold. This can also help while you actually have the cold but it isn't pleasant for a sore throat. 

Tip #3:

One of the best ways to relax your throat and stop coughing (When you CAN'T stop coughing) is to suck on really dark chocolate (80% or darker). I know sounds like it would make you cough more but it really helps! 
 
Tip #4:

Have a vaporizer in your room at night. If you like to use essential oils; peppermint, tea tree and eucalyptus are some great oils to put in the vaporizer's cup.

Tip #5

Hot soup also helps. Bethany made up a really good recipe for soup, she is going to post about it soon.

Tip #6

Make sure you're getting enough sleep!

These are some tips that my family finds helpful.

If you have any tips or suggestions please share them!

Blessings,   

Lydia
