Recipe Sharing Monday: Lasagna Soup

With the weather starting to cool off, it's time to start adding soup to my weekly menu.  I have to be honest, my heart skipped a beat when I found this recipe!!  


What You Need:
2 T. Olive Oil
1 1/2 lbs. Italian Sausage
3 C. Chopped Onions
4 Garlic Cloves, minced
2 tsp. Dried Oregano
1/2 tsp. Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
2 T. Tomato Paste
1 28-oz. Can Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes
2 Bay Leaves
6 C. Chicken Stock
8 oz. Lasagna Noodles, broken into bite sized pieces
1/2 C. Finely Chopped Fresh Basil Leaves
Salt and Pepper
8 oz. Ricotta Cheese
1/2 C. Grated Parmesan Cheese
2 C. Mozzarella Cheese

What You Do:
1.  Heat olive oil in large pot over medium heat.  Add sausage, breaking into bite sized pieces, and brown for about 5 minutes.  Add onions and cook until softened, about 6 minutes.  Add garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes.  Cook for 1 minute.  Add tomato paste and stir well.  Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until tomato paste has turned a rusty brown color. 
2.  Add diced tomatoes, bay leaves, and chicken stock.  Stir to combine.  Bring to boil and then reduce heat.  Simmer for 30 minutes.  Add uncooked pasta and cook until al dente.  
3.  While the pasta is cooking, prepare the cheesy mixture.  In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, parmesan, salt, and pepper.
4.  To serve, place a spoonful of the cheese mixture in each soup bowl, sprinkle some of the mozzarella on top and ladle the soup on top of the cheese.
5.  Go back for seconds!

Nail Files and a Giveaway

Today I'm linking up with Tara and Vicki  for their fabulous linkup party, The Nail Files. Essie : Turquoise and Caicos Julep : Ivy Annnnd...I'm doing something a little special for my readers today - a nail polish giveaway!!  I am admittedly copying Christina over at Easily Entertained .  :) She recently did a nail polish giveaway (that I missed out on..boo) and I thought what a GREAT way to get rid of some of my overflowing collection of polishes!!! You will win 8 bottles of nail polish including brands: OPI, CHI, Ulta, Avon, 2 Glitter Pots from Julep, and an Ulta Lipgloss! I apologize for the lighting - I will try to get a better picture and upload it. All of these polishes are slightly used (maybe 2 or 3 times) except for the CHI brand and the green Ulta one - those have never been used.  The glitter pots and the lipgloss are also brand spankin' new. a Rafflecopter giveaway

Halloween Treats

For work gifts this year, I used these free printables  and these free printables  to make these cute little treats!  I had a lot of fun making them.  I dragged my poor mom and David around to so many stores looking for different colored Tic Tacs and eyeball candy.  I wanted very badly to make the Vampire Vitamins...who knew it would be so hard to find red Tic Tacs! I also made this easy Halloween Bark. What You Need:   1 Package Halloween Oreos Candy Corn 2 Packages Wilton Candy Melts in White Halloween Sprinkles - I ended up using different sprinkles than the ones in the picture...a girl has a right to change her mind, right? Pretzels - I stole these out of our Trick-or-Treat bowl because I felt like it needed something to offset all the sweetness. 1. Crumble up the Oreos.  I crushed some by hand, some in my food processor and broke some in halves and some in fourths.  Spread out on cookie sheet over wax/parchment paper.  Sprinkle candy corn
