The kids are back in school, days are getting shorter, nights cooler, and I do believe this wonderful summer is coming to an end! It's time to start thinking about all things autumn....including food choices.
I have posted the September 2002 Recipe of the Month to my website at http://www.geocities.com/itkwm
This month's recipe for BEAN SOUP is a healthy, hearty choice to warm your hearts and souls. When I was growing up it was called FASOLATHA, which is Greek for bean soup. There is an old saying, "Fasolatha pou trefi tin Ellada", or "The whole of Greece is brought up on bean soup."
I hope you will enjoy this month's recipe. It is simple and basic, the way my mother and grandmother used to make it, but there are many variations. Feel free to add enhancements if you wish, such as garlic, parsley, thyme, oregano or spinach. Serve it with a sandwich or a salad and some nice crusty bread. Delicious!!
New recipes in the Weight Watchers segment this month Include Chicken Tuscany with Fettucine- 8 points, Portobello & Zucchini pockets- 4 points, Chinese Cucumber Salad- 1 point, and Eggplant Parmesan- 7 points.
Until next month.....
