Macaroni, Put It In They Will Eat It...

My daughter has grown into quite the little food snob. I mean its unavoidable with a Daddy who owns two amazing restaurants in the city.

Unlike most kids mine won't eat chicken nuggets or grilled cheese. I once watched her shovel steamed mussels in her mouth like it was her last meal. Her favorite food? Calamari. I didn't eat Calamari till I was 18.

Needless to say I am not, repeat NOT a good cook, but Sophia has recently decided her new favorite thing to do it help me fix dinner. Trying to come up with something she can help me with results in lots of salad which later result in me still starving and binging on ice cream at 10 pm.

Exhausted of salads and exhausted in general at a last resort I threw together a modge podge of things to make soup.


Yes, I know it doesn't look to appealing but its AH-MAZING!

And Simple TOO! 

I threw in a pot: frozen corn, frozen green beans, diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, lean ground beef, macaroni, and because I'm obsessed right now with anything Spicy - Texas Pete hot sauce.
Cook until pasta is al dente. 

Miss Food Snob Sophia had two helpings.

Might now be five star dining or anything good enough for Pinterest but this was good, easy, and hit the spot!
