Chicken Vegetable Soup / Weekly Recap

December 9, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 11 Comments

Hi Everyone!

Wow, I can’t get over that it is Sunday already!  The weekend really flies by!  This Saturday I kept pretty busy, by baking, making Artichoke Jalapeno Dip, again (I’m so loving this dip), re-making White Chocolate Peppermint Mocha Cookies for you and of course my weekly trip to Trader Joe’s.  All in all I had a pretty busy weekend.

Today I have for a very filling, tasty, healthy good for the soul Chicken Vegetable Soup.  Normally on the weekend, I like to make big meals, but since it’s holiday season, I haven’t had the time to make nice dinners with all the baking and shopping I have been doing.  This morning, I smartened up and decided to bring out the Crockpot, so when dinner time came around I wouldn’t be too lazy to cook and dinner would be done for me!  You just have to love the Crockpot!!


The soup is really easy to throw together.  I placed two frozen boneless chicken breasts in a crockpot, added a can of diced tomatoes, celery, carrots, onion, garlic, edemame, corn, chicken broth and seasonings.  Basically you can add any vegetables you like.  I thought of adding potatoes and broccoli, but I decided against it.  Since I used low sodium chicken broth, I did need to add a little bit of salt to it at the end.  I love low sodium chicken broth but in some dishes, a little extra salt is needed.

The recipe makes a little over 6 cups of soup.  I made some homemade bread to go with it, which is so good.  I’m going to be sharing the recipe with you later this week!  I also made a little side salad.  It is a perfect meal for a chilly evening!  I have leftovers, so it will make for a nice lunch tomorrow!

This week, you asked me if I could make my White Chocolate Peppermint Mocha Cookies without butter.  I did that today and the outcome is ok.  Instead of using butter I used 1 cup of plain greek yogurt, but left the rest of the ingredients the same.  The cookies, turned out more like a chewy brownie.  I didn’t taste the espresso so much and it didn’t have the cookie texture that I was looking for.  However, if you like peppermint brownies and your looking for healthy alternative, I highly recommend subbing the butter for greek yogurt.  They taste good, but it’s not a cookie.  I took a picture of them, just after I put the white chocolate glaze on top.  Little Jenny took them before I could style them for you.  I’ll put the nutrition and recipe alternative on the White Chocolate Peppermint Mocha recipe page.

Here is this weeks weekly recap:

Monday:  Almost Sugarless Sugar Cookie – I was really surprised, but everyone loved these cookies, and I loved telling them they are sugarless!  No one believes me.  lol  I even made my Pepper Jelly on Saturday and used NuNaturals Presweet Tagatose in it and it worked out perfect!  I love that I can have sweet things without having sugar!!  I contacted Ron from NuNaturals to give him the two winners of the giveaway and he said he will wait for the other two.  I said other two, he said yah, you can pick four people to win the giveaway!  Woohoo!!  Guess what?  That means two more winners, and the winners are:

Tuesday:  Artichoke and Jalapeno Ranch Dip – I LOVE this Dip and I mean love it!  I made it again on Saturday because I was craving the creamy spicy dip!!  It’s so good and it’s so low in calories!!  My Husband who doesn’t like yogurt or low fat foods, loves the dip!  We pretty much polished the whole dip for lunch!!
Wednesday:  White Chocolate Peppermint Mocha Cookies – I loved these little cookies.  I think they taste so much like my peppermint latte.  They are easy to make and oh so cute!!  They are one cookie that I can’t keep around me because I wouldn’t have any issues finishing off the whole batch!
Thursday:  Broccoli and Cheese Egg Bake – This makes for a wonderful, healthy breakfast!  It’s full of broccoli, spinach and cheese and it’s ohhy, gooey good!!  It’s very filling too, perfect meal before school or work.
Friday:  Cranberry Orange White Chocolate Chip Cookies – Oh these cookies!!  I love them!  They were my indulgent for the week!  No they are not low calorie, but they are so good!  There filled with white chocolate chips, dried cranberries and has the most amazing orange flavor!!  I so love the combination of flavors in the cookie!  I think I may need to put them in my top 4 cookies!
Saturday:  Peanut Butter Hummus – I love this hummus!  It’s has a pinch of sweetness and a small kick of heat!  It’s perfect for dipping pita or lavash crackers in it or it’s wonderful in a sandwich!!!  Yummy!!
Well my Friends, time to go!  My Internet has been having issues cutting in and out, so I want to get my post done before I lose it!
Have a great Sunday!
Toodles,
Jen
P.S.  This weeks craving is Cranberry Banana Bread!  Yes I am making this today!  I must!!

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.
💖
What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together.
