French onion soup is one of the most celebrated in the world, yet its full possibilities are often overlooked.

Diabetic Friendly Turkey Bean Soup
What could be better on a cold winter day than a good hot bowl of healthy but tasty soup? Personally, I love soup any time of the year, but I find it especially enjoyable in the wintertime. This recipe is great because it is quick, easy, tasty, healthy, and a perfect way to use up leftover turkey (or chicken). It is also easy to make by cooking a diced chicken breast or a couple of thighs if you don’t have leftover available. Even better, you can use the meat from a deli roasted chicken or could even cube up a hunk of deli meat. However you choose to make this soup it is still easy and quick. In today’s busy households, especially during this time of the year, that can be very important. So give this soup a try the next time you need a quick, easy meal. Read the rest of this entry »
