You may have noticed that I have been MIA for the past two days. Shaun and I got back home from my parents house late Sunday night. Then Monday night I started to not feel very well. Not sure if it was the go-go-go attitude from my sister’s wedding or the stress knowing that Baby Olivia will be here in TWO MONTHS!
Last night I woke up several times not feeling very well, so I decided to stay at home to rest up and get to feeling better. For lunch I went to Panera Bread to treat myself to some soup and then decided that I needed to make my own for dinner. You just can’t beat homemade soup at the house. It’s even better when you can throw everything in and let the stove and pot do all the work. I even have left overs for the rest of the week! Thanks to all the soup and naps I took today, I am feeling much better!
ENJOY!

This was a great recipe idea. I added some Rotini and used Roma tomatoes, no beef broth, just water and seasoning. It was a great meal! I am glad I tried this recipe. I just typed in ground beef and it came up along with some other ground beef recipes.
