Souper Supper

 

It was soup for dinner today!  Broccoli cheese soup above and potato soup below.  Only one of my boys likes broccoli cheese soup, so I only made a small batch.  Originally I was going to make grilled cheese sandwiches but we opted for chicken quesadillas to go along with it. 

This will give us lots of leftovers for lunches this week.  We are working on the eat from your pantry challenge.  We will be working on this challenge all month!

Pinterest Recipe for Dinner

As per my menu plan for the week, we had beef with broccoli in the crockpot.  The verdict from my family is a definite 2 thumbs up.  Collectively, that is 8 thumbs because there's 4 of us.  With 2 teenage boys, I altered the recipe to make more. 
Here's what I did:
Ingredients
3+ pounds boneless beef chuck roast, sliced into thin strips
1 cup beef broth
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
5 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cooled sauce from the crock pot after being cooked
3 heads of fresh broccoli florets
Hot cooked rice
