    Probably a dumb question but do you remove the corn from the cob to make the soup? Soup sounds yummy just need details on the corn, LOL!

    yes, I run water over the cob to get it just thawed enough for a smooth cutting of kernals, but still frozen enough to stay together when being cut....... its easier to transfer to the pot that way....


    Oh, and my disclaimer on this is, it LOOKS nasty and unappealing, but TRUST me the flavor is.... there is not a word thought up yet for how good this is!

    thank you can't wait to try!

    PS on the Buffalo Chicken part it says Ranch dressing Mix, do you make it like instructions on packet mix or just use the mix packet? Sorry, don't make new reciepes much, LOL!

    Chicken & Spinach Soup with Fresh Pesto

    http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/chicken_spinach_pesto_soup.html

    I just made this today for lunch for the first time and it is yummy! I used a whole carrot, store bought pesto and added whole wheat orrechiette pasta leaving out the croutons (I forgot to buy them). Next time I think I'll add some onion to it as well so I will definitely be making this again.

    This is my favourite winter soup of *all* time. I make it using homemade kimchi that I ferment myself, however you can use store bought if needed. Homemade always tastes better but the store bought stuff works in a pinch! This recipe is extremely flavourful but very spicy, so beware :bigsmile:

    Kimchi Stew - Serves 8-10

    Layer in a LARGE pot

    1lb thinly sliced pork shoulder or sirloin beef, all visible fat removed
    1 package extra firm tofu, patted dry and cubed
    2 medium onions, sliced
    2 small zucchini, julienned
    3-4 cups of homemade kimchi, or whatever you have
    1 package cleaned enoki mushrooms
    cover everything with water

    Place on the stove on medium-high heat until it boils. In the mean time...

    Mix together
    3-4 cloves garlic, minced
    2 Tbsp soy sauce, low sodium
    1-2 Tbsp Gochugang (hot soy bean paste)
    Gochugaru (red pepper flakes) to taste - I use 3-4 tsp but that makes for a very spicy soup!

    Add the seasoning mix to the soup and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down to medium (or med-low) and simmer until the flavours meld and everything is cooked and soft.

    Serve and enjoy! Very nutritious, somewhat high in sodium, but amazingly tasty and comforting! YUM! We're having this tonight :bigsmile:

    Hello, I understand about the cold weather, I'm here in Wisconsin.
    There is a soup I like, and it's healthy, it's a cabbage soup

    ■6 large green onions (also called “spring” onions)
    ■2 green peppers
    ■1 or 2 cans of tomatoes (diced or whole)
    ■3 carrots
    ■1 container (10 oz. or so) mushrooms
    ■1 bunch of celery
    ■half a head of cabbage
    ■1 package spice only soup mix (In the US, Liptons is a good choice)
    ■1 or 2 cubes of bouillon (optional)
    ■1 48oz can Low Sodium V8 juice (optional)
    ■Season to taste with pepper, parsley, curry, garlic powder, etc. (Little to NO SALT!)

    Directions:

    Slice green onions, put in a pot on medium heat and start to sauté with cooking spray. Do this until the onions are whiter/clearer in color (about 4-6 minutes).

    Cut green pepper stem end off, then cut pepper in half to take out the seeds and membrane. Cut the green pepper into bite size pieces and add to pot.

    Take the outer leafs layers off the cabbage, cut into bite size pieces, add to pot.

    Clean carrots, mushrooms, and celery, cut into bite size pieces and toss them in. Add tomatoes now, too.

    If you would like a spicy soup, add a small amount of curry or cayenne pepper now.

    For seasonings, you can use a spice soup packet of your choice (no noodles!) or use beef or chicken bouillon cubes. These cubes are optional, and you can add spices you like instead (make sure not to add much salt, if any at all).

    Use about 12 cups of water (or 8 cups and the 48 oz of Low Sodium V8 juice), cover and put heat on low. Let soup simmer for a long time – about 2 hours or until vegetables are tender

    Hey! Here's a recipe from an Ohioan at heart! This chicken vegetable stew is healthy and easy to make. You could also dazzle it up by adding your fav - lentils- or a sprinkle of parmesan cheese. It'll warm you up for those cold Ohio, lake effect snow nights!!
