Soup du Jour, par #fritz.

The Boss got 50 lbs. of Rutledge Farms potatoes for $16.95...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

#fritz

 

This is a nice little snack, as long as you're not a Russian. Them guys can go to hell...

The broth was composed of Club House mushroom gravy mix, as well as the jus left over from roasting a 636-gram Angus beef roast.

You will recall how I get that ready and then dribble a bit of vegetable cocktail on there. 

We did that at 450 F for 17 1/2 minutes and then turned it down to 325 for about another forty minutes...in the end, we strained off the soup and ate the meat. In all of its juicy glory.

That was $12.57 at Walmart just the other day. That had been laid on a bed of mushrooms, green pepper, topped with raw onion rings and a selection of herbs and spices. We actually added some more raw onion, frozen green pepper, black pepper, all that sort of thing into the broth, and then basically just heated it for some reasonable time period.

Served with microwaved mashed potatoes from yesterday, oh, we dropped some leftover corn in that soup/stew as well. If you go too crazy, you'll be shitting your pants about dawn. In that sense, it might be best to show some restraint.

The Boss got a 50-lb. bag of Rutledge Farms potatoes for $16.95.

Oh, yeah, we had some of the $0.88 broccoli crown left as well, and of course, #beer for two bucks a can or perhaps a little more, not taking a ten-cent deposit into account.

Soft, light and fluffy.

There's a few mushrooms in there, suitably reduced to their basic earthy flavours through a process of heat and time.

We got them from Food Basics, (flyer), and at some point you have to use the last few up.

We ate the meat and had some fresh #superdough bread. There is some gravy left, quite frankly it’s tempting to drink that down right out of the plastic tub, what with being on ODSP and all, but we were also thinking of hot hamburger sandwiches tomorrow…

Just like in a truck stop.

Trust me, we got more potatoes.

The last thing is a dribble of vegetable cocktail.

Right???

Spices would include thyme, white pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, all that sort of a thing. A bit of #tiger sauce, but I can't reveal what's actually in it.

(Otherwise, I suppose he would have to kill you. – ed.)

Cheap-ass margarine. Which is better than the Becel ass-sucking flavoured margarine.

Okay, so we did that the other day, we had at least one really awesome cold beef sandwich, and there is still a bit of cold beef in the fridge.

(Actually, he's had about three. - ed.)

We also have bread and a couple of buns, mustard, all the usual tomatoey stuff that goes on a sandwich.

Just sort of heat that up for some time period or other.
