Bitter winter means different things to people - but to me - SOUP!!!

RRP

The other day I posted a picture of a fresh pot of my ham and bean soup. Today I made a big pot of my chicken, vegetable and cheese soup. It is SO rich and filling and now I have 4+ more pints in the freezer for more bitter winter nights ahead!

 I'll be glad to share the recipe!

RRP’S GOURMET CHICKEN, VEGETABLE & CHEESE SOUP

2 pints Swanson vegetable broth 

1 pint Swanson chicken broth

3 medium potatoes, peeled and diced

2 large cooked chicken breasts - well chopped or shredded (your choice!)

1 cup chopped onion

2 T parsley flakes

2 cubes chicken bouillon

40 grinds fresh black pepper

1 tea salt

10 oz bag of Birdseye Steamfresh  mixed vegetables thawed (dice the big chunks of green beans and carrots!)

2 cans Campbell’s cream of chicken soup

1 pound Velveeta cheese 

In a large sauce pan parboil the diced potato cubes and chopped onions in water, but then drain.

In a Dutch oven combine the broths, potatoes, onion, mixed vegetables, parsley flakes, bouillon, salt and pepper and cook on low heat until tender. Add the chicken and stir well!  Add cream of chicken soup and Velveeta, cut into small chunks. Stir often until cheese is thoroughly melted. Reheat and serve.

Makes a bodacious hearty soup! I freeze it in pint size Food Saver bags.

Temp here was 4 degrees, with -14 windchill in Kansas. I shoveled snow for 1 hour, and we had cheeseburger soup for lunch.  Man that hit the spot!

Interesting recipe, it’s not too salty?  Do you add water to the cream of chicken soup or the bouillon cubes?

DuckDogDr

Appreciate the recipe. 

Great minds think alike.

Salty? Not in the least to us anyway and then besides that my wife always adds salt to her bowl.

I am going to have to copy this one down. Have you tried it with any other cheeses?

No, but I say why not?

OTOH veleeta melts so well and then stays mixed(surrounding)the other ingredients.

I am just more likely to have shredded cheddar on hand. 🤔 more ways to get rid of leftover 🦃.

A little sodium citrate will help keep that cheese emulsified.

Or mustard, for that matter.

Gulfcoastguy

Ah! I always have mustard on hand.

This might just be a rare, super nexus of puns and innuendo.   But I'm not gonna hang around and find out.

“Supper sex” is what Costanza was into.

Stole a pound of Velveta and a quart of chicken stock. Had a picnic outside of his dog door. B::::Ed about his dog food for 2 days. No soup for the family tonight.

Sorry to hear and I sure don't have a clue what B::::Ed means, but PLEASE don't beat him! I'll be GLAD to send you money for the lost ingredients!

Keep in mind with a pound of Velveta working through his gut then powered by the gas generated from a quart of chicken stock he will be EXPLODING SOON and will PLEAD with you!!!

Gulfcoastguy

It could have been several days ago. I have never beat him , there is a little exasperated admiration of his ingenuity.
