#2 - New Recipes!

Well I didn't think blogging once a week would be this hard!  (Well, I thought it would be hard, but I thought I would be better at it!)  So this week the most exciting things to happen were 2 new recipes we tried!  The first one was a pesto cream sauce pasta I thought up while we were at Le Mis, I thought it up during the movie and I couldn't stop thinking about it, so we came home and made it!  We had found a litre of cream on sale for 44 cents, so that was the inspiration!  We added in chicken, red peppers and fresh spinach that wilted nicely!
Sorry I don't know how to flip pictures on here!

So good!
The second recipe we made just last night and its SO easy!  Its Coconut Lime Soup from the second Our Best Bites cookbooks and basically consists of chicken broth, coconut milk, lime juice, mushrooms, green onions, cilantro, shrimp (it calls for chicken but a variation is shrimp) and the noodles from Ichiban!  Simple and so good!
