Soup is a fantastic way to get a hefty dose of vegetables into a convenient cup. After buying the organic carton brand of red pepper soup, I decided it was time to tackle it my own way. It’s not only delicious but it’s also gluten and dairy free! And it’s husband and toddler approved!

Here is a recipe with a southwest flair that can be assembled and frozen, a stuffed flank steak. Then, on serving day, thaw the night before and place in the slow cooker in late morning. By dinner, you’ll have a healthy meal with a little kick. The cilantro, peppers and corn give it the flavor and kick you need while still keeping it healthy.

This combination is a baked roll with a mixture of chicken, cabbage and carrots though many ingredients could be easily substituted to fit your individual preferences.

With a filling of black beans, spinach and other veggies, these Baked Southwestern Egg Rolls are great for your waistline. Serve them on their own or dip in Homemade Salsa. These egg rolls can also make a great Meatless Monday or Lent Friday (especially once you get sick of fish) meal, too, as they’re naturally vegetarian.
