Poor Mans Soup

Have you ever heard of Poor Mans Soup? To tell you the truth I didn't know what it was either, till I made it one night. And to be completely honest I gave it that name, but basically it is what it sounds like. I've come home from work (11am-7:45pm yikes!) and there really is almost no time to cook. Almost.

So I invented Poor Mans Soup, you just take anything you find in your kitchen and throw it in a pot, add water or broth or both. Mix. Boil. Let Set for a couple minutes. And BAM! soup! It's not the most lavish of meals, but it'll fill you up and if you make enough. There's lunch or dinner or breakfast for the rest of the week.

Cheers!




And a note from the wise, if your going to throw in noodles. Don't put them uncooked in the broth with the other things, thinking the noodles will soak up the flavors and be yummy. 

They won't.... 

You soup will taste thick and starchy and gross.

So cook the noodles separately and add to the soup whenever you think it's close to being done. 

Have fun with your soup and don't be sad while making it because you think you have nothing in your kitchen. Instead think "wow I'm making something super tasty from nothing!"
