  • Soup is on!

    this is a cheap and wonderful soup for keeping those head colds under control
    it does have a couple of tbls of bean paste but you could leave it out if you are not eating legumes yet ...however it is so good for you ...I wish you could eat it!!!

    Very Easy!!!!

    Korean Spinach Soup

    1 package of fresh spinach washed well and spun dry
    1 dozen small manilla clams scrubbed
    1/2 lb ground beef
    1 tbl dark chunky Korean style bean paste (if not available use dark miso or you can use a good beef stock cube of your choosing ..Knorr Asian beef style one is good..if you are not eating any legumes)
    3 cloves smashed garlic (or more)
    1 medium cubed diakon radish
    1 block of cubed extra firm tofu (optional)
    dash of salt and couple of dashes of soy sauce
    1 bunch green onions cut in two inch long strips
    2 tble of hot chile paste (use more if you like or use dried hot crushed chiles if no paste available)
    6 cups water

    over med high, on top of the stove ...brown the ground beef with the garlic, chile paste, cubed diakon and bean paste in a pot then add the water over the mixture stir well over medium high heat, when soup is boiling add the clams and spinach when the clams pop open add the green onion, garlic, tofu and soy sauce boil about a minute ...

    if you want more heat ..and who the heck doesn't??? add a sliced jalepeno or two to the boiling broth


    enjoy

    I stole this recipe from Jacques Pepin

    http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...ad.php?t=30816

    Very easy, very simple, and very Atkins friendly for all phases of the Diet.

    I was ill last week with pneumonia and that soup recipe was the basis of my menues.

        Wow they both sound wonderful! I've never been a huge soup person but do get the odd craving for it on cold winter days..which, believe it or not we have yet to see here in Toronto (it's 51 today, going up to 55 tomorrow..time to get the shorts back out! LOL)

        When i do crave soup, I like to boil some cauliflower in a bit of chicken stock till it's soft. I then add some cream and blend with an immersion (hand) blender till smooth adding a bit more stock if it's not thin enough and heat back up. season with salt and pepper and top with shredded cheddar. Other variations I've made include adding cooked turnips or squash or roasted red pepper. or after made sometimes i add bits of cooked chicken .
