Looking for Recipe Help. Making Soup Starting With V8 Low Sodium Juice as my Soup Stock. Any Ideas?

Warm it up in a microwave and there you have soup how much fucking more do you need for soup its V8 low sodium V8 if it's not salty enough and a little salt

Ingredients... herbs... meats... grains... couscous...?

You know, recipes. Drinking warm V8 juice every day at work doesn't sound too thrilling...

vegetables; whatever you have,,,onions a must
1/2 teaspoon oregano and 1/2 teaspoon basil
a little chicken bouillon,couple cubes, or 1 teaspoon granular
salt / pepper
that should do it..the chicken a good add-in

What a great idea...
How about chunks of lean meat or chicken with barley( pre cooked/boiled). Also mushrooms-again pre cooked.
Or rice ? Less nutrition in rice but the v8 base makes up for it.

Just thinking it through I would probably dice the meat, air fry it, and toss them into a warmed v8 .Keep the ingredients separate until I wanted to eat it.

Warm it up and pour over buttered egg noodles.

Maybe a dash of garlic and onion . Maybe add corn and or potato and maybe some lima beans .

What about those fancy grinder salts. Do you think they are a bit healthier? I thought I might pick one up tonight.

I like corn quite a bit in soups and chilis...

I've been cheating with pre-made frozen grilled chicken chunks. I was thinking about cooking my own and freezing some instead. I haven't decided yet. If I make things too complicated I tend to drift away from my diet..

You could caramelize some onions and garlic, use the juice as a base liquid onto this, and then with green lentils, a bit of curry, some diced tomatos and such to make a nice lentil soup..

There's some good recipes out there, and if they are tomato based your juice should work instead of "soup stock'

I'm looking for recipes for my thermos at work that I can just grab and go.

I used to try and microwave soups at work but it was a pain and I'd always get interrupted trying to eat. The soup would get cold.

I like the idea about the caramelized onion and garlic. I've never tried that. I just put some curry powder in an empty shaker I had this morning. I've been trying to use it up since 2017.

That looks pretty good! Thanks.

If you add some Campbell’s tomato soup it will help mask the V8 taste... it really works.

You stay out of this, Bill! You maniac!

That's what I'm using now but I thought just V8 would be a healthier choice. I do love the tomato soup though.

Thanks, I might sign up with them. Looks handy.

You might have a good point about just adding some soup though. Good idea.

Toast a knuckle bone or marrow bone for 15 minutes. Then put it in a stock pot with 2 gallons of water on low for 2 days.
Add desired ingredients salt onions ginger turmeric cabbage etc.
Strain broth after 48 to 72 hours and add 1 gallon to your v8 for the most nutritious bone broth stock with incredible flavor.

Protip: add 2tbsp of acv per gallon to bone broth.

That's above my level but it sounds good.. Cooking to me used to be walking to the pizza place.

In my humble opinion, making tomato soup isn't really rocket science (unless you want to use it for rocket propulsion fuel of course).

Seriously. Don't you have any kitchen experience whatsoever?

I would use fresh tomatoes rather than V8 however, I can tell you that much. I don't care much for its taste, I think it's made from concentrate juices.

Just take some tomatoes, some onion, a clove of garlic if you like, some salt, some peper, some French provence herbs, some oregano and/or rosemarin, let cook a bit, you'll be fine and so will the soup.

Oh I forgot, some oil (virgin olive oil) would be nice, so you get all the fat-soluble vitamins too.

Honestly, for tomato soup it's BS (but I am not saying it isn't good in its own right).

INGREDIENTS

9 tomatoes, peeled, cored and chopped (about 4 cups, or the equivalent in canned tomatoes, crushed)

2cups tomato juice (V8)

2cups chicken stock

5 tablespoons fresh basil leaves, cleaned

1/2 pint heavy cream (1 cup)

1/2 cup unsalted butter

salt and pepper

parmesan cheese (grated, to garnish)



I use the fire roasted garlic diced canned tomatoes. Or Rotel.

Enjoy!

I have a blender. Should I use that first then cook?

Sounds delicious but I'm shooting for as lean and low sodium as I can get.

Low sodium is for cunts

I just assumed you were putting chopped up hot dogs in there. Add a squirt of bull semen and your set.
