Delicious She Crap Soup Recipe from JaguarJulie
Delicious She Crab Soup Recipe
4 tablespoons butter
2 stalks of celery finely chopped
2 green onions finely chopped
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups milk
1-1/2 cups whipping cream
1 cup fish stock
1-1/2 pounds she crabmeat gently flaked
1/4 cup sherry
Spices to taste: black pepper, salt and Hungarian paprika
Directions: In your favorite pot for cooking soup, first melt the butter. Add the chopped celery and green onions, letting them saute slowly until just tender. Slowly add in the flour, stirring until you have a smooth mixture. Gently stir in the milk, whipping cream and fish stock. Allow your mixture to blend together on the low heat. The best part is adding the flaked crabmeat and sherry. Do not boil, but allow your she crap soup to simmer. Add spices to suit your taste — black pepper and salt with a dash of Hungarian paprika on top when serving.
Lobster Bisque Soup
I’ve written another post specifically devoted to this soup. It’s a Lobster Bisque Soup available in Publix.
When I was visiting my mom in Brooksville, Florida, it was Thanksgiving. She had prepared a traditional turkey and other fixings. I opted to supply some of this soup.
It is one of the most fabulous and rich tasting soups that I’ve ever purchased from my local grocery store. It honestly tastes like the kind you might get in expensive restaurants.
Chicken! Have a recipe for chicken noodle soup?
A Favorite Soup : Chicken Cheese Enchilada Flavor by Progresso
In August 2012, I blogged about this soup by Progresso, Chicken Cheese Enchilada Flavor. It is not everyday that I come upon a soup that is worthy of buzzing about.
I’ve already tried this soup on some Basmati rice. It is thick and hearty and goes over rice quite nice.
Or, you can try it by itself. I’ve kicked it up a notch by adding some cayenne pepper.
Vegetable! Have a recipe lens for vegetable soup?
A Delicious Butternut Squash Bisque Soup
Here is another soup that I had to stop and blog about! It is Campbells Butternut Squash Bisque Soup. It is the type of soup that really surprises you!
I’d never hat a butternut squash soup before. Normally, I love this squash at the holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas. Who seriously knew that you could pack a ton of taste into a can?
This soup has got the most buttery and nutty taste that you will want to lick the bowl. And, give it a smell too! Delicious, I say!!
Do you have a favorite recipe for soup? How about an old family recipe? Or, do you just prefer that can of Campbell’s soup?
