In cold weather we eat a lot of soup for lunch; something tasty to warm our innards after working out in the cold all morning. I can soups ahead of time and sometimes I just throw leftovers together for Scrap Soup. This recipe uses canned greens and takes only a few extra steps to make a really good soup.
 |
| A pint jar of canned greens. Here I have lambs quarters. |
 |
| First make a roux. Mine is 1 tbsp melted fat from pork roast drippings and 2 tbsp flour, although any fat will do. Blend and brown if desired. |
 |
| Drain the liquid from greens into roux. |
 |
| Use a whisk to smooth out lumps. |
 |
| Whisk in your desired liquid until the soup base is the consistency you like. Liquids can include water, milk, broth, or vegetable juice. |
 |
| Stir in greens and any other ingredients you like, such as sauteed onions, bits of ham, sour cream, grated cheese. Season as desired. |
 |
| Bring to a simmer and serve. Makes 2 soup cups for soup and sandwiches or one large meal-size bowl of soup. |
