now back to topic-
SOUPS are really easy to make, first, get a pressure cooker, they will make your soups turn out so much better.. there is a generic recipe i use:
chopped onions and garlic go in first to brown a little, throw in chopped meat (as much as you want, i load it up), throw in a bunch o spices, your choice really- bay leaves, basil, italian season, lemon herb/pepper, rosemary, ANYTHING... (i like lots of flavor) get it browned on the outside and still pink ni the middle... put water in the pot and let it warm up as you cut your veggies. you can also put bulion(sp?) whatever flavor your using, chicken, beef etc... ... i usually use, mushrooms, carrots, celery, potatoes, green beans, corn... i mean really anything goes, soup is so easy... as you cut them up put them in, potatoes go last. put the top on( pressure cooker) and let it cook on high for 30-40 minutes, without pressure cooker, just let it lightly boil for a few hours...
soup is also great cuz you can make a pot and eat it all week or freeze it, and the older it gets, the better it tastes! just like pussy! j/k!!
