Ok, so it's Fall and I've been thinking about making all kinds of soup. My first venture was a Chicken, Rice & Vegetable soup. I varied my one pot chicken stew to include more broth & Viola! It's Soup!. I've always wanted to make my Granna's vegetable soup, but my one attempt was a poor, poor excuse for soup of any kind ;> Hopefully during my next trip I can get the REAL full recipe from her. My wish list of soups to make is ever growing, but since I bought two bags of potatoes on special last week I've been fantasizing about making a potato soup. And low & behold I ran across a quick & easy enough recipe over at " $5dollardinnermom.com. The recipe called for miso soup as well, but I made mine with what I had on hand: homemade chicken stock- roughly 2 cups; 4 medium size potatoes, part of an onion, salt, pepper, thyme, a little milk & some water. I peeled & cut the potatoes, then cooked them in the stock along with the onion. When the potatoes were cooked throughly I put it all in the blender along with just a touch of milk for creaminess, seasoned to taste & Viola! It's Soup!
The results are very tasty if I do say so myself :> After a busy rainy day, this soup hit the spot for me.
Next I want to try Carrot, Butternut Squash, and tomato- Oh I am excited to stretch my culinary muscles!
