Crockpot Hamburger Vegetable Soup

I made Crockpot Hamburger Vegetable Soup last weekend. I'm one of those people who loves soup year-round, but when the weather drops below 50 it's a must have in our house! We eat soup multiple times a week this time of year.

I love Crockpot Hamburger Vegetable Soup for numerous reasons but my top 3 are: 

1. It's the perfect use for whatever leftover veggies you need to use up in the fridge. 
2. I almost always have something on hand to make this come together. 
3. It's super easy, comforting, and healthy enough to be considered diet food without having to diet, because no one wants to diet! 

If I think the word diet I almost have to run and grab a cake to counteract the thought.. So we can just call this soup healthier eating.

Warm, comforting, and delicious.. Here's the recipe:

Tiramisu Angel Food Cake

If we go out to eat and Tiramisu's on the dessert menu it's almost always my guaranteed pick. 

Tiramisu is traditionally made with ladyfingers, but I used Angel Food Cake soaked in liquor infused espresso or strong coffee could be used, and then covered in creamy marscapone mixture that's hard to keep from eating straight out of the bowl. 

Tiramisu Angel Food Cake is best made at least 8 hours ahead of time so the flavors can mingle in the fridge but an overnight is even better. It holds up exceptionally well made a day ahead of time. 

In Italian Tiramisu translates into "pick me up" and this dessert is sure to pick you up at the end of the day.

Tiramisu Cake is a slice of heaven for the taste buds.
