Wagon Wheel Soup

Today's blog is going to be quick because I am working both jobs!


During colder weather there is nothing better than some comfort food!  This soup reminds me of chili with its kidney beans and tomato sauce.  And I love that it has protein, carbohyrdates and veggies all in one place!
