The Soup Diet: Week Four Report

Leek Love is alive and well!!

Monday: Adaptable Aztec Soup (without adaptations)
Tuesday: Adaptable Aztec Soup (with Chinese Soup noodles)
Wednesday: Spinach and Leek White Bean Soup
Thursday: Spinach and Leek White Bean Soup
Friday: Lentils 'n Squash

Well, the Aztec Soup is gone. Out of the refrigerator. In my tummy. Done. I got lazy early in the week and didn't brew up any new soups. So lazy that I didn't even create any "adaptations" for the Aztec Soup. Fortunately it's still very good "as is." And adding Chinese Soup noodles (conveniently left by some co-worker on the counter in the office's mini kitchen) worked as well as tortilla strips. My roommate is also in love with leeks, and kindly replenished the refrigerator's leek supply. Thus, this week's leek soup. And lastly, you must notice that Friday's "soup" is not a soup. It's the Soup-For-Lunch Diet's first failure and I faithfully document it for you. I ran out of time and creativity. Instead I had an almost two month old acorn squash in the refrigerator and a new lentil recipe in my recipe box....thus....NO SOUP FOR ME today.
