Souper Easy Dinner

As woman entrepreneurs, we have an abundance of tasks to take care of through the day and dinner is not usually a priority. However, I have the perfect answer that will ensure you will be staying away from the cardboard pizza boxes.

Not many people give soup and salad the credit it rightfully deserves and in a pinch, it can really be a lifesaver, accommodating  your busy lifestyle as well as a healthy choice for dinner.

Starting with a can of soup, perhaps one of those Progresso soups with the chunky vegetables and meat.  Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a few grinds of black pepper. If you have a few sprigs of parsley handy, chop it up and sprinkle it on just before serving.

Everyone buys (or has bought) those bagged salads,  you can buy them with the dried cranberries ad nuts in them. Make sure to rinse off the salad greens–(Do not trust the packaging and think they are already pre-washed.) If you didn’t buy the salad with all the fixings, throw in some dried cranberries, toast a few almonds or walnuts, sprinkle in your favorite cheese and toss well. Dress it up with your favorite bottled or homemade dressing and season with a pinch of kosher salt and ground black pepper.

You can warm a baguette up in the oven and even toast some nuts for it–Toasting nuts gives them a lot more flavor. Finish off the dinner with a luscious berry sorbet with some cookies (you know the ones, the cookies hidden away in the back of the cupboard, the Pepperidge Farm Cookies) and you’re good to go!

And there you have it–A souper easy dinner!
