#43: SOUPS, STEWS AND MORE INFLATION FIGHTING RECIPES 

As inflation spirals out of control, these are challenging days at the check-out.  SOUPS AND STEWS REPRESENT THE BEST WAY TO STRETCH THOSE SHRINKING DOLLARS---and are really quite comforting during the darker days of winter.

Here's some of our favorites---first, a hearty Cabbage and Green Bean Soup recipe, one of our favorites from BUDGET BYTES---pair it with a slice of crusty bread---(and a glass of red wine for the adults!) and you are good to go!  https://www.budgetbytes.com/can-eat-cabbage-soup/

Here's one we've featured before but return to quite often----Lady Carolyn's Lebanese Vegetable Soup. Delicious. (Click on the recipe card.)

AND FROM ONE OF OUR FAVORITE BLOGS---GRANDMA'S VINTAGE RECIPES---MISS CINDY'S LENTIL SOUP; click here. 

GLEN AND FRIENDS SUPER SIMPLE BEAN AND BACON SOUP---we dialed back the amount of chipolte peppers in the recipe---excellent quick soup using whatever canned beans you have handy  https://www.facebook.com/GlenAndFriendsCooking/videos/1779643595566253
