Eek soup

I have seen the habit in my refrigerator, which grow before I get to go shopping. I take it all out, reorganized the food may continue, and then my purchases. When I get home with my bags full of food, and they are all gone, I then in the evening in nearby allotment.

Today I took a half head cauliflower shows only shades of brown, two carrots are limp, an even more saucy celery stalk, a few potatoes and a burgeoning leeks. No more leftovers or throw food, have limits, I decided to take me to stretch my dollar and wild creative soups.

I had some chicken bouillon cubes, about two cups of milk, which has always been vague, and a packet of powder Knorr leek soup, which I was for sale for a dollar and thought I would find a use for a few days. The point is ... I have enough soup for two full dinners for four people in less than two dollars (considering that most of the ingredients would have wasted if I did not make soup!).

The best thing about the whole thing is that I, or for commercial purposes, without any of the ingredients or substitute something else could not be easier. Example:

Raw frozen cauliflower try, leftover from a previous dinner, or even replace broccoli
Carrots and celery entirely optional
Leek substitute onion, green onions, shallots, chives or
Potatoes, I place them into a natural thickener instead of flour ... but you can make a roux by frying in equal parts butter and flour, and use it instead
Cans, you can use bouillon cubes or cartoned chicken broth, homemade chicken soup, powdered broth or vegetable stock / broth, if you are a vegetarian
dried onion soup mix you can use any cream soup or none at all. I used it because she helped the soup, but my own flour to thicken, and season the soup nicely.
Milk can be more water or chicken broth instead, soy, milk or rice milk

To the soup to boil, cover all raw chop up small and only slightly with water. Season with salt and pepper, to replace a piece of butter and bouillon cubes or to your. If you use chicken broth, do not use any water at all. Cook, covered, until vegetables are soft, then hollow out half (or all if you do not like lumps) in your soup, and blend in blender. Then put it back in the pot, add your onion soup mix and stir until it comes to a boil. They made him go and let it sit for a while. If it is too thick, a little milk or water and stir well.

With this simple soup, you have money for other necessities or saved) on a target (eg. renovations, as your family a healthy, easy to cook (especially good if you are a working mom), and has done nothing, "Green" is not wasting a resource. Let me know how you like it!
