I still call this "Alphabet Soup" even though I no longer make it with alphabet pasta, having not found alphabet pasta in a gluten-free variety. Today I made this soup out of small shell pasta. This is my favorite lunch, because it is quick, he…

In What's for Dinner?

Mac Daddy, oh how you save me from a life without mac and cheese. Tonight's version was made with extra vegetables thrown in, to make it healthier. I use quinoa pasta, which holds up better than rice pasta during the double cooking process.
