With back-to-school just around the corner and the end of summer breathing down my back with an ever tightening schedule, this easy one pot meal is just what I needed! Why a one pot meal? It keeps things simple. I'm left with one dirty dish and plenty of happy, full tummies at the end of the night. What's better is that I only need to focus on one pot for cooking. Yay!

This meal is basically hands off for 30 minutes, giving plenty of time to get other needed things done in between stirring and checking. One of my favorite things about this soup though, has to be that it's super packed with flavor and loads of sneaky vegetables; making it easier for you and healthier for the family at the same time...

There has been some talk, as there is every year, about a possible vacation for the family in leu of birthday and holiday. We never really took family vacations when I was younger, so I guess it's something that we will continue to strive for. Fingers crossed this year will be the one!

With all the vacation talk, my little love has mentioned on more than one occasion that she would like to go to Hawaii for 'holiday'. I'm really not sure where she got that idea or how she knows much about Hawaii to start with. Thank you Peppa Pig and Lalaloopsy!

From what I've gathered these are the few things she knows to be true of Hawaii:
1. They wear grass skirts there.
2. Hula dancing is a must.
3. It's sunny.
4. They have beaches.

She's not too far off the mark...
