I invented this soup when we were stranded inside during “Snowmageddon” in 2011; I used only things we had on hand and it turned out perfectly!
*For Lincoln’s Birthday Snow of 2014, I once again successfully used ingredients I had on hand:
- 2 large chicken breasts, diced and browned in skillet
- 2 cups frozen corn kernels
- 1 can diced tomatoes & green chilies and 1 jar salsa
- 1 cup quinoa
- 4 cups (2 salsa jars) water
- 2 tbsp dried minced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- PLUS one can pureed pumpkin
