QUICK BEEF VEGETABLE SOUP FROM LEFTOVER POT ROAST



Quick Beef Vegetable Soup from Leftover Pot Roast image

Here's a good way to use leftover pot roast -- with its juices and any leftover vegetables. Its a very flexible, use-what-you've-got soup so its hard to go wrong. If you don't have homemade beef stock (butchers aren't giving away bones anymore), soup base is tastier than regular bullion. I like the Tones brand you can get at Sam's Club. Note: I couldn't get the recipe editor to accept leftover vegetables as an ingredient, but if you've got some hanging out in the fridge throw them in.

Deep-Fried Pork Chops and Quick Vegetable Soup image

Categories     Pork     Vegetable     Fry     Fall     Simmer     Boil

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 21

Vegetable soup
3 tablespoons butter
2 leeks, white and light-green parts, thinly sliced
2 celery stalks, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon tomato paste
4 cups Chicken Stock (page 28)
One 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes
1 large white potato, cubed
1 cup frozen lima beans
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup frozen corn
5 ounces fresh green beans, cut into bite sized pieces
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish
Pork chops
Peanut oil, for deep-frying
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
Four 1 inch thick bone in center cut pork chops

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the leeks, celery, and carrots, and cook, stirring, until softened, 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables, and continue to cook, stirring, until the flour reaches a light blond color. Add the tomato paste, and cook for another minute. Add the stock, and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally. Add the diced tomatoes and the potato, reduce the heat to low, and simmer until the potato is cooked through, about 20 minutes. The soup can be made up to 1 day in advance.
  • While the soup is simmering, heat 2 inches of peanut oil in a large Dutch oven to 325°F. Place the flour in a large casserole dish, and season with salt and pepper. Dredge the chops in the flour mixture, patting off the excess. Place the chops, two at a time, in the hot oil, and fry until cooked through, about 6 minutes. Transfer the cooked chops to a paper towel lined baking sheet, and repeat with the remaining chops.
  • Add the cooked chops to the soup and simmer over medium-low heat for another 30 minutes, or until the meat from the chops falls off the bone. During the last 10 minutes of cooking, add the lima beans, peas, corn, and green beans. To serve, ladle the soup into wide, shallow bowls, and garnish with the parsley.

QUICK & EASY STEAMER BAG VEGETABLE SOUP



Quick & Easy Steamer Bag Vegetable Soup image

I am tired of the cost and similar taste of all the canned soups out there, but I wanted something that was almost as easy to fix for lunch. As an added plus, my son said it was the best vegetable soup he had ever had! I've used all the combinations of the 3 types of vegetable mixes and have liked them all. I like adding the chickpeas for my protein, but the family prefers the chicken.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (12 ounce) bag green beans, corn, carrots & peas
1 (12 ounce) bag broccoli, carrots, sugar snap peas, & water chestnuts or 1 (12 ounce) bag broccoli, corn, carrots, cauliflower & red peppers
4 chicken bouillon cubes
1 -2 cup water
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
broiled chicken, diced (optional)
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed (optional)

Steps:

  • Steam the veggies in the microwave as directed on each of the bags you choose to use.
  • Dissolve bouillon cubes in 1 cup of hot water. Combine vegetables, bouillon broth, sugar and tomatoes in large sauce pan. Added more water to cover vegetables if necessary. Chicken and/or chickpeas can be added if desired. Let simmer for 15 minutes or until heated thoroughly.
  • Notes: we like the sugar in it because it cuts some of the acidity of the tomatoes. It also works well to place all the ingredients in a crock-pot and refrigerate overnight. Then just heat for about 4 hours on low for an easy meal the next day.

QUICK CHICKEN NOODLE VEGETABLE SOUP (WEIGHT WATCHERS)



Quick Chicken Noodle Vegetable Soup (Weight Watchers) image

This soup is from an old issue of Weight Watchers Magazine. It's a core recipe or only has 3 points per serving if counting. If the broth gets a little too thick after refrigerating leftovers, add a little water to thin and reheat on stove or microwave. NOTE: Weight Watchers lists the calories per serving for this recipe to be 160 with 2 g fat which makes 3 points per serving. For some reason Zaar has the calories and fat a lot higher. I think that perhaps Zaar doesn't recognize the chicken ingredient to be skinless which would reduce the fat quantity.
