There goes the neighborhood...

So I didn't lift this weekend. My knee feels fine no worries about that I just didn't go. My house-mates and I were doing things and it just didn't get scheduled in. In other news KC made one of the most nutritional soups ever last night:

1 Huge jug of V8
1 turkey/chicken/low fat kielbasi
2 cabbages one green one purple(shred or chop)
couple cans of diced tomatoes
1 thing of Costco's chicken STOCK (not broth cause the stock just adds that much more flavor)
3-5 small red potatoes (chopped): each potato is about a carb if it is a small potato
4-5 stocks of celery (chopped)
Any other veggies you want to add
Salt and pepper to taste

Cut up the kielbasi and cook it in the pot some before anything else because it lets out the flavor and you get some nice color on it. Then add the celery(chopped), potatoes(chopped), diced canned tomatoes, V8 and stock. Let that cook at a low boil until the potatoes are tender. Add the cabbages, you don't want to add them too soon because they cook quick. Let that cook into itself. Serve once cabbage is done cooking. This makes AWESOME leftovers because the flavors meld together even more over night. This is also a pretty soup since there is a lot of color between the red, green and purple.

  1. Yum! I am eating some for lunch. I will have to try putting kidney beans in next time per your suggestion for an extra bit of protein.
