This recipe is so good that if I'm making one to give away, I make one for myself, too!
Friendship Soup
Layer in a quart jar the following order:
1/2 cup dry split peas
1/3 cup beef bouillon granules
1/4 cup pearl barley
1/2 cup lentils
1/4 cup minced onion
2 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 cup brown rice
3/4 cup pasta
Attach the following recipe to the jar.
To prepare:
Take pasta out of jar first.
In large pot brown 1 lb ground beef.
Add 3 quart of water and 28 oz can of diced tomatoes.
Add all of jar ingredients except pasta. Simmer 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
Add noodles in the last 15 minutes.
Options:
If you don't like to use beef bouillon granules, omit them from the jar and change the water in the directions to beef broth.
I usually add a scrap of fabric to the jar lid before gifting it.
What a great idea, it looks wonderful. Thanks for the idea :)
ReplyDeleteI like to do these kinds of things for Christmas gifts. This one is a great one. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThere is a section for this, soups and cookie mixes at our local fair. I always look at what was entered and think its, this neat. That said I have never made a jar full myself. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis will make a great gift to add to our kid's package. They are getting beef this year and I'm trying to get aprons made to go with it. Thanks for sharing.
