Found a recipe online last week for "chicken and sweetcorn soup." The directions for it weren't very clear, and called for ingredients that weren't actually in the ingredients list, so I went hunting online for other sites that might have posted it.
Y'all, there were so many different variations, I ended up cobbling together my own! And it turned out great; it made quite a bit, but was tasty and chock-full of chicken and veggies. Well, veggies I'll eat, anyway. I made it with my dad in mind, so there's no rice or potatoes in it, or noodles. All of which would have been great, but-.
My measurements leave something to be desired, I know, but considering I threw this together with only a few bare-boned ideas, it will have to do.
( One vague - but tasty - recipe, coming up! )
Wow, that's way more vague than I meant it to be. But that's about how I did it. Start to finish, it took maybe two hours, total. Hubby and I kept nudging the temperature up once everything but the cornstarch had been added; by the time we decided it was time to eat, we had it up on medium.
It made a LOT (two big margarine containers full of the leftovers, plus another smaller container), and of course, it was better today than yesterday - had some for lunch a few hours ago. ;)
In other news, ZOMGSOBUSY. I don't ever seem to know whether I'm coming or going, I tell you what. Two weeks till Christmas for us, and it's hurtling toward me like a freight train. Time just goes faster and faster the older I get, you know?
