Soup

[Lindsey]

I make stew out of anything I cook When I'm cooking for just myself there's always leftovers, so if I roast a chicken or a beef roast or bison roast, I will make sandwiches for a few days and then cut up the rest and throw it in the slow cooker with some veggies and spices!
My mom makes delicious hamburger soup but I've never tried to make it. I always have enough in my freezer from her!

Well, now you must get the recipe from her and share it with us.

Yes, hamburger soup sounds like something we'd have often at my house! Post recipe, please.

My potato soup is really really simple. I cut up an onion and as much potato as I want and throw in the pan. I put in enough water to cover and boil till the potatoes are tender. I drain most of the water, but not quite all (for flavor). I fry a piece or two of bacon, cut it up and throw it and the grease into the potato pan. Next I add milk - 2% if I'm feeling fat, and whole milk if I'm not - or maybe even throw in a dollop of sour cream if I'm feeling very skinny. I like lots of potatoes in my soup so I only add enough milk to make it very potatoey. I heat till hot and bubbly around the edges, but do not boil the milk. Add salt/pepper to taste.

That's it. I put it in a bowl and sometimes add a tiny dollop of butter and then I break up toast into the soup and enjoy! Sounds kinda gross, but I grew up on this soup and I love it.

That sounds delicious Gayle! I love potatoes!

I asked my mom for the recipe for hamburger soup tonight, but she was really busy so she's calling me tomorrow night with the recipe!
