Soup for the Soul

Fun fact about me: I freaking love soup.

Like in my soul. I’ll make and eat it all year round but it sure does hit different on a cold winter day. A long time ago I used to make a seafood bisque and I can’t for the life of me remember how I made it. So I decided to make a new one. Keto friendly, too. One thing I did with this recipe was I used already cooked frozen shrimp. Mainly because I had it in my freezer.

what you do:

  1. Thaw shrimp set aside.

  2. In a pot, add oil and onions until your kitchen smells amazing. Then add garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, add in all of your spices and cook for about one minute.

  3. Add tomato paste, wine, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for about five minutes so that you cook off the alcohol. Add in stock.

  4. Add everything to a blender and blend until smooth. Return to pot and add in cream and parm cheese.

  5. Toss in shrimp and cook for a few. Serve and enjoy!

This recipe makes a pretty huge batch, so I’ve been eating it for lunch every day. And let me tell you, it hits the spot every day.

Stay warm out there and enjoy the day!

Picturesque Palettes

Hi! Happy Tuesday!

So, the fashion part of my blog has taken a backseat this year because quite honestly, I’ve had zero time to think about it. But here I am having a minute to think about it and even though I’ve been slammed, I’m going to kick off this post with the first of my palette segment. I’ve named it “Picturesque Palettes”. The concept of me using palettes is for you to use it as a tool when you’re in a rush. It can also be just a different way to build an outfit.

This color combination is a really good one for Fall and Winter. So keep in mind, the pants don’t need to be the only place you can wear the color. Feel free to wear this combo in any way you see fit.

One more thing I’m doing…

Once a month, I’m going to be posting about something that I’m loving right now in fashion. Not necessarily a trend just something in general that I’ll feature.

As always thank you for stopping by my little corner of the internet.

Fast and To The Point

Hey there, Friends!

I feel like a broken record talking about how busy I am but man I’m freaking busy! It’s been hard to keep up as of late. That’s one of the reasons I have another fast weeknight night recipe! The last one in January’s fast weeknight recipes.

Listen, I could eat this salad every day of the week! It’s so fast and I actually made mine ahead of time so that I could I concentrate on making dinner for the fam. I just pulled it out and ate it really quickly. This is truly a perfect weeknight meal! Healthy, too!

I hope your Wednesday is fabulous!
