I read a similar recipe to this on . When I would watch my 2 DGDs after school, in the winter, they would want something warm. I experimented a little and came up with this recipe they seem to like. I got to be looking forward to a steaming bowl of this soup with a handful of croutons floating in it,too. I used this soup to test various croutons too. A real quick, simple meal. Any of these ingredients may be omitted or others added. I am still experimenting, too. I started using small soup mugs for the children when I discovered their smaller hands could control the mug, because of the handle,better, plus they think it is cool. Ingredients:
1/2 cup small shell pasta, any style. |
1/4 cup dry lentils |
1/4 cup chopped dried mushroom |
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese |
1 tablespoon minced dried onion |
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules or 2 tablespoons beef bouillon granules |
1 tablespoon parsley flakes |
1 teaspoon oregano |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
3 cups water |
Directions:
1. Place dry ingredients, except macaroni, in saucepan, and add water.
2. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for about 30 minutes.
3. Add macaroni and cook for 10 more minutes.
4. Remove from heat for a few minutes to cool and ladle into soup mugs and serve, with small size croutons or oyster crackers.
