Egg Drop Soup

Verdict: Win

I boiled chicken thighs yesterday for my pasta that's going to feed me through finals week. I decided to save the stock and make egg drop soup today. I always knew homemade chicken stock was super easy, but I never made any until now. It's unbelievably EASY - you have to do it; plus it's practically cost free.The chicken stock I made was already salty enough, so I only seasoned the soup with a bit of ground white pepper. I also added some carrots and yellow peppers for texture as well as nutritional value.

Cheater's Pizza

Verdict: Win

My "cheater's" pizza when I'm craving fatty foods. Best part is that it used up ingredients I already have that I may typically not use (Swiss cheese? bought that a while ago just for cubans...found out later I much preferred the Parmesan I hand on hand for this) and it was super quick to make.
