The House Of Soup

Besides Minnesota "hotdish", soup rates right up there for the perfect winter meal.

Of late we have been making various kinds of soup and freezing it.

You can always tell the severity of the Minnesota winter by the amount of soup we make.

This past weekend Sue made white chili.


White chili is made with chicken, onions, garlic, chopped tomatoes, white beans, garbanzo beans, green chilies, cheddar cheese and a host of other ingredients.

This was a new recipe so she only made a 22 cup batch. Now that is withstood our taste test, we will make it by the drum next time.

It is so handy to have this stuff all prepared and ready to go instead of coming home from work and wondering what to have for supper.

Right now we have regular chili, white chili, beef vegetable and clam chowder prepared and ready to consume at a moments notice.

We ran out of room in the 35 cubic foot freezer to store it in so we have an oil tanker parked out back with most of the holds full.


Tune in again soon for another edition of "Now What Are They Doing?"

Bob, If you were a bachelor and went to the supermarket, you would know that they sell that stuff already made and packaged in cans that stack easily in a cupboard! I'm sure it doesn't taste quite as good, but did I mention the bachelor part?
