Ahhh...fall...let the soup pour! I love soups and stews and can eat them all year round! My family, on the other hand, prefers their meals a little "cooler" in the summer months. I look forward to fall for soups and stews to make their reappearance on our menus! Here's a favorite:
Curried Chicken and Rice Soup
2 large carrots, chopped
2 stalks of celery, chopped
1 onion, chopped, 3/4 cup butter
3/4 cup flour
1 tsp. seasoned salt
1/2 - 1 tsp curry powder
3 (12 oz) can evaporated milk
4 cups chicken broth
2-3 cup chicken, cooked
2 cup cooked long grain brown rice
In a large saucepan, saute vegetables in butter for two minutes. Whisk in flour, seasoned salt and curry until smooth. Gradually add the milk. Bring to a boil and stir two minutes. Gradually add chicken broth. Stir in chicken meat and rice. Return to a boil and then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
Easy as that! I love meals that can be prepared with so little fuss! Pair this with a crusty roll and a perhaps a salad. Yummy!
For those forgoing (with good reason) boughten seasonings:
