vegetarian chicken soup
we went shopping for food yesterday and i had an idea of making a vegetarian chicken soup. i've never made it before, but it turned out really nice and it's only 3 points per 250 ml. so for all you vegetarians out there, or non-vegetarians who want to try it, this is how you make it:
you need
1 l of water
200 g quorn chicken style pieces
2 vegetable stock cubes - like knorr, not oxo!
babybell cheese
thin pasta - you can use nests
4 black pepper corns
method
put quorn pieces, vegetable stock cubes and pepper corns in water and cook for 10 - 15 minutes
in a separate pan, make pasta
when it's ready, put diced cheese and pasta into a bowl and pour soup over it.
it's lovely, tastes like chicken soup, it's low in points and it's made in a very short time.
so that's what i was doing yesterday. that and palaeontology. it was quite a nice change from chemistry. i wrote the chemistry assignment on wednesday and posted it yesterday. so it will get to the teacher on time and everyone's happy. today i'm doing geology - how the earth works. it's basically about heat sources and convections, water and oxygen. quite interesting and not too difficult. but there's a mapping practical part and i've not looked at that yet. hopefully it won't be a nightmare.
oh, and this morning, my compass and my hand lens came in post. they're very nice! i love gadgets!
i'm a bit annoyed today. i weighed myself yesterday and it was very good and i weighed myself today and i weigh a lot - and i mean a lot - more than yesterday! maybe it's because of all the soup i've eaten, maybe the vegetable stock cubes contain a lot of salt and i'm retaining water. hopefully i'll go back to yesterday's weight by sunday. if not, i'll be very annoyed!
