Italian Meatball Soup

I bought a small shell noodle box and the recipe was on the back of the box:
"4 cups beef  or chicken broth
1 jar marinara sauce
2 cups frozen vegetables
1 cup Small Shells
12 frozen fully cooked meatballs
Combine broth and sauce in large pot.  Bring to boil.  Stir in remaining ingredients.  Boil 7 to 8 minutes until pasta is tender and meatballs are heated through."
Next time I make it, I would double the broth.   I added carrots, squash, and broccoli.  I would add more vegetables.  But overall, pretty good.  I also sprinkled Parmesan cheese on top.

Peanut Butter Popcorn



This is Natalie's recipe:

2/3 cup sugar
1 cup Karo syrup
1 cup crunchy or plain peanut butter
2 tsp vanilla
1 cup popcorn kernels

Pop popcorn and put in large bowl.  Remove unpopped kernels.  Bring sugar and syrup to a boil. Don't overcook it as it will crystallize. Remove from heat and add peanut butter and vanilla. Pour over popped popcorn and mix.
