SOUPS

Making homemade soups is easier than ever in the microwave oven. Use leftover vegetables, chicken and meats to create
your own specialty. Freeze small amounts of leftovers until you have enough to try a new soup.
An efficient microwave method of soup making is to cook the vegetables first with just a little oil or butter, then add the
stock or broth and heat as desired. If you have no stock or broth, heat 1 cup of water and 1 bouillon cube (or 1 teaspoon
bouillon granules) in a 2-cup glass measure on P-HI for 3 minutes. Season as desired.
Canned condensed soups are convenient to add to homemade vegetables for a quick but tasty soup. Our recipes for
mushroom and onion sauces can be used as soup bases with additional milk. Watch for package directions to heat
purchased soups in the microwave.
Once you have made some soup of your choice, freeze leftovers in 12-ounce portions. Then defrost on Def. and reheat on
P-HI for 3 minutes. Always stir several times during the heating cycle and before serving.
