Yummy

So the weightloss plan is going A-Okay for the Purdies! This week so far has been our best one yet. I feel like eating right, even more than our exercise is the cause of us feeling so good and losing weight. Not to say exercise isn't important, it sure is. Jillian Michaels is showing us what is up!

So we have added a TON of veggies to our meals. They are so yummy! I found this recipe and loved it. Chris didn't like it so much, said it was too much like baby food ha ha. For those of you with a more "refined" taste, give it a shot!

BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP

2 TBS of butter (you can totally cut this out)

1.5 stalks of celery chopped

1/2 yellow onion chopped

10-12 baby carrots chopped

4 small potatoes cubed

1 butternut squash--peeled seeded and cubed

32 ounces of chicken broth or stalk (low sodium works)

Salt and Pepper to Taste

Melt butter and cook the veggies for 5 mins, or until they are lightly brown. Pour enough stock/broth to cover the vegetables. Bring everything to a boil, cover and simmer on low for 40 mins or until all the veggies are tender. Transfer the mix to a blender and blend until smooth. Return to pot and add the remaining stock/broth until you get the desired consistancy. Add salt and pepper to taste.
