Brown Bear’s and Lizard’s Tomato Celery Soup
1 8-oz. can NSA tomato sauce
2 cans water
1-1/2 Tbsp. dry minced onions
1 tsp. very low-salt beef bouillon (Herb-Ox 1 packet)
¼ tsp. mock beau monde recipe*
½ cup celery, minced very fine.
1/8 tsp. dry mustard
½ tsp. ground ginger
4 Tbsp. balsamic vinaigrette*
Bring to a boil and then turn to low and simmer until the celery is tender, about 30 minutes. This is a freebie soup that may be used as an appetizer before lunch or dinner.
Variations: Add one of the following for a change of taste:
1 tsp. ground dill weed
1 tsp. Splenda
1 tsp. ground coriander
*See recipes following:
Mock Beau Monde Seasoning
1 Tbsp. ground cloves
1-1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 Tbsp. ground bay leaf
1 Tbsp. ground allspice
1 tsp. Splenda
2 Tbsp. ground black pepper
1 tsp. ground nutmeg
1 tsp. ground mace
1 tsp. celery seed
2 Tbsp. ground white pepper
In a small mixing bowl, sift together the clove cinnamon, bay leaf, allspice, peppers, nutmeg, Splenda, mace, celery seed and mix well. Store in a tightly closed jar.
Balsamic Vinaigrette (Liz Maxson)
12 oz. balsamic vinegar (can substitute raspberry vinegar)
5-6 cloves garlic, minced
2-1/2 Tbsp. Splenda
1 tsp. Grey Poupon Brown Country Mustard*
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Mix all ingredients together and store in fridge. This is a freebie. *This is not really on program, but I have used it from the beginning. My original recipe called for 1 Tbsp. so I cut it back to 1 tsp. Also, this may be made with a really good raspberry vinegar. I find that the inexpensive ones are really too biting, but a good one (Colavita brand of raspberry vinegar is good) will make a nice change for you. This is also good on your chicken, baked potatoes, etc.
Veggie soup from jen52906
1/2 cup peeled and cut up potato
1 cup combined carrots and celery cut up
diced purple onion
diced garlic
1 packet herb ox very low sodium chicken broth
seasoning to taste - I use McCormick spicy seasoning, oregano, and whatever else I want.
Cover with water
2 oz. chicken (cooked) I add this towards the end. But, I don't think it matters when. It gets nice and tender!
Bring to boil, then simmer for a couple of hours until the potato starts breaking up and it becomes like a stew. You may have to add water along the way. Note from Liz: You could use ¼ cup brown rice instead of potato.
