Yes, it's Spinach and leek soup night!



View recipe here.

Here's my math:

Spinach, non organic, $1.49
Leeks, Organic $3.00
Can o beans: $.65
Garlic and Spices: Estimate $.25
Chicken broth: $1.49
Bag of small pasta: $.40

Eight servings? $.91 cents each.

Freezes great and is perfect with a dollop of siricha hot sauce.

The trouble with leeks is that the dirt tends to hide in the tick leaves, and I often don't catch it until I'm about to toss it in the pot. I cook mine in my 4qt dutch oven.

And it's midweek cleaning night: Bleach all kitchen and bathroom surfaces, tidy the bedrooms, sweep all floors and dust.

After Kiddo goes to bed I will start to paint the Snoopy. I sketched him out last night and it's not half bad!
