Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.

Let's be honest: nothing beats a big bowl of soup on a chilly day. Dive into the delightful mix of lamb, veggies, and barley that makes Olga's Kitchen Peasant Soup a must-try.

1 pound ground lamb
1 medium onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
3/4 cup quick barley
1 can (15.5 ounce size) diced tomatoes
5 cups vegetable broth
2 cloves garlic, diced
2 small zucchini cut in bite size pieces
1 package (10 ounce size) frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, beans, corn)
1 large bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon Greek oregano
1/4 cup dried parsley
salt and pepper, to taste
In a large pot, brown lamb, onion and celery only until lamb is no longer pink. Drain off fat. Add tomatoes, garlic, bay leaf and broth. Bring to a boil. Add Quick barley, zucchini, frozen vegetables, thyme, oregano, and parsley. Then reduce to simmer for 30 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve with toasted pita bread triangles.

This is good and you can use variations like beef broth and ground beef if you don't have ground lamb around. Quick and easy.
