Sunday's Original Post...

I had originally written this post on Sunday but when I tried to type it out into Blogger, it wouldn't work! Super frustrating!  I guess blogger thought it was inappropriate to blog at work, who ever said that was a crime?!  Anyways…now it has some adjustments since it’s no longer Sunday.

Sundays at our house during the fall season mean one thing, Packer games!  And of course with me it means yummy food to eat while he screams at the tv!  We always try to do something easy to eat during football games like Cowboy Sushi (ham roll ups), cheese and crackers or soup!

Did I mention Sundays are officially Soup Sundays this season?  I got the idea from Jessica over at Little Baby Garvin who does this at her house.  And what’s not to love about a different soup every Sunday? 

Our first soup we chose to do two Sundays ago was sweet corn & sausage chowder.  Yum, it was delish!  It was really easy too since we had made it in a crockpot.  At first when I picked this I was nervous because of the sausage since I am not a huge sausage person.  But guess what?? You use brat meat! We had made brats the night before so we decided to just chunk the brats up and throw ‘em in!  The recipe originally said to take uncooked brats and cut them out of the casing and fry the insides like ground beef, which I am sure would have given the soup an extra meaty taste but it turned out good just the way we made it too!  It also called for fresh ears of corn but again, it’s fall and now you will only find dried corn stalks for decoration around here!  So we put just a bag of frozen corn in, again just as good.  If you want the original recipe click here.

This Sunday, since we both worked I didn't plan as well as I wanted to with the soup ideas.  So on my way home from work I just picked up a package of chicken noodle soup from Costco.  I also bought some of their yummy chicken salad so it you could have some soup and a sandwich for dinner.  It was quick, easy and delicious.  This Sunday I think we will do the beer cheese and chicken soup.  Sounds like football to me!
