hearty cold-weather soup

CHICAGO - Today's weather is cold, chilly, rainy and windy. It's typical Chicago weather at this time of year. However, I've never heard of 25-foot waves hitting Lake Michigan...sounds pretty wild.

I came home from work and really wanted to make some hearty chicken soup, so I made some organic chicken noodle soup. It was easy and yummy, just like my mom's chicken soup. It was perfect!

my ideal burger -- homemade wild salmon burger

I decided to make some homemade wild salmon burger and spinach miso soup for tonight's dinner. It was sooo yummy! These meal are packed with nutrients and vitamins. Also, I had some oranges on the side to enhance the absorption of iron.

Greek Avgolemono Chicken Soup with Egg-Lemon Sauce

This is a traditional Greek soup. I use brown rice, organic chicken and I didn't use any cream or milk. This is one of my favourite soup to make for Fall season.

Today was actually really beautiful day in Chicago. The leaves are starting to change colour from green to yellow, bright orange, or red. When I went for a walk at the park this morning, I've noticed so many fallen leaves on the ground. Everyone at the park was enjoying the warm and sunny weather, even the squirrels were happy.
