Awesome!!!
Can I get the recipe for the ham and broccoli soup and the pizza soup?
Quoting michiganmom116:
We added 1 - 2 c. diced ham to this
Creamy Broccoli Soup:
- 1 1/2 lbs fresh broccoli OR 16 oz. bag frozen broccoli;
- 2 cups water;
- 1 large stalk celery, chopped;
- 1 medium onion (about 1/2 cup) chopped;
- 2 Tbsp. margarine or butter;
- 2 Tbsp. all purpose flour;
- 2 1/2 c. water;
- 1 Tbsp OR 3 cubes instant chicken boullion;
- 3/4 tsp. salt;
- 1/8 tsp. pepper;
- 1/2 c. whipping cream, evaporated milk or milk.
Cut up fresh broccoli into flowerets and bits of stalk. Heat 2 cups water to boiling in saucepan. Add broccoli, celery and onion. Cover and boil until tender about 10 minutes, do not drain. If you prefer, put vegetables and some liquid in blender and blend until desired consistency (I don't do this step). Heat margarine in large saucepan over medium heat until melted. Add flour, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, for about 45 seconds. Gradually stir in 2 1/2 c. water, whisking or stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Add boullion and stir to dissolve. Add vegetables and cooking water, heat back to boiling, then remove from heat and stir in cream or milk. Serve.
and add pepperoni to this to make it pizza soup
Tomato/Basil/Pepper soup
- 4 scallions or 4 small onions, sliced thin
- 1 c. diced sweet red bell pepper
- 2 Tbsp. butter
- 28 to 32 oz. diced tomatoes, undrained
- 1 3/4 c. chicken broth
- 3/4 tsp. basil
- Mozzarella cheese (optional)
Cook scallions/onions and peppers in butter until tender. Add tomatoes, broth, and basil. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Top with shredded cheese.
NOTE: you can also add diced pepperoni for a more "pizza" soup.
