Snow Day Soup & Cornbread!

Let me echo what everyone on the east coast of the United States is saying: it's cold. With temps well below freezing and negative wind chill values, it's just not fun to even try leaving the house. 

Perfect weather for steaming hot soup though! This recipe is one my mother made often growing up. It is best served with a side of cornbread, so I've included a dairy-free version of that also! Enjoy!

Vegetable Beef Soup

1/2 lb ground beef

2 cups water

1 can diced tomatoes

1 8oz can tomato sauce

1 packet onion soup mix

1 package frozen mixed vegetables

1/2 tsp sugar

Brown the beef, drain, and combine with all other ingredients in medium pan. Bring to boil, then reduce heat and summer 10-15 minutes. 

Cornbread

1 package Jiffy mix

1 can cream style corn

1 egg

Combine all ingredients and pour into greased muffin tin. Bake at 400 for 15-20 min.
