Cream of Chicken Soup, the Update. →[More:]
So I asked about recipes
here, and got some great suggestions... but guess what happened? Before I could gather ingredients for any of those (planned for this week) I had a little accident. I was making a sort of mini-
Briami with whatever various, lonely leftover vegetables were sitting around in the fridge, and after I had sauteed them all and added them to the roaster, I sauteed some garlic and grabbed a can of diced tomatoes to mix with that.
Except it wasn't a can of diced tomatoes, it was the can of Heinz Cream of Chicken Soup. I can be forgiven for this, because I never have cans of anything
except tomato (canned stuff isn't very big here), plus the mostly red packaging, just like cans of tomato... I didn't even think twice, just opened it and dumped it in without thinking. And lo!
Here's where I'd like to say, "Wow! That turned out
so good nomnom!" But no. What Jan said:
Ah yes, we have that here. (It's gross, btw).
Ick. What a pointless waste of canning, packaging and ingredients. So, I still don't get to make the magical recipes that call for (obviously more tasty) cans of cream of chicken soup. This mess was faintly edible mixed with brown rice, but that's about it.
