i'm all about the soup...

so i decided to try another recipe...i've had this a few times in greek restaurants and decided i wanted to make it myself... it was sooo soooooo good, it was a hit with the hubby too!

i added a bit of chopped up chicken breast to give it some more flavor and nutritional value....

enjoy...


"Greek" Lemon Rice Soup

3 c chicken broth
2 to 3 oz uncooked regular rice (2 oz makes thinner soup, 3 oz makes thicker soup!)
2 eggs
3 tbsp lemon juice
Dash of salt and white pepper

In 2 quart saucepan, bring broth to a boil. Reduce heat, add rice, cover and simmer until rice is tender, about 20 min. In small bowl, beat eggs and lemon juice. Stirring constantly, add 1 cup of hot soup, a little at a time. Stir mixture into soup in pan and heat. Do not boil. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately. Serves 4.

yum. yum.

they shoot...they score!!!!!!!!

one saturday afternoon, i was invited to go watch my niece and nephew play hockey. i hadn't seen them play for awhile, so i thought i should go. they're amazing on ice!!! i think they each scored 4 goals in that game, and they kicked the opposing team's butt!
