Ham, Potato, and Cheddar Soup



Abandoned Edibles
crimini mushrooms, cippolini onions, broccoli, baby carrots, ham steak, potatoes
(additional ingredients: cheddar cheese, butter, olive oil, milk, garlic, chicken stock, chives, spices, etc.)

What I did: I have been sitting on this frozen hamsteak for a while, so I was ecstatic when I found mushrooms, onions, broccoli, carrots and potatoes in the cull bin. First I sauteed the veggies in butter and olive oil, then added chicken stock. I topped the pot off with whole milk, herbs, and a little flour to thicken it. Even though I shredded a shit-ton of cheddar cheese, I also garnished the soup with additional cheese and a few chives. Yum!



The Verdict
God DAMN, this was some tasty soup! I ate it on the roof under the moon. Delicious and just what the doctor ordered.

Taste: 8
Creativity: 7
Appearance: 8

Improvements for next time: BAGUETTE! That is all.

  1. This sounds very good! I love that you are using all the culls:) So resourceful. I do that too, but only with culls from our garden and my own fridge? Does that count?
