Friday night super soup night was a light (even though it looks heavy) onion soup that was easy to make, but worth the time for the flavor that awaited you with every spoonful. I was also surprised at the calorie and fat amount with this recipe...

  I bought an avocado the other day and decided I would make a sandwich spread to eat on my 100 calorie fold-it bread with fresh romaine lettuce. The result was delicious and I will also use it as a spread on a turkey breast that I roasted up yesterday....
