Categories: Soups
28 ounces canned tomatoes --
1 28 ounce can, whole, peeled
28 ounces chicken broth -- fresh or canned
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 large green pepper -- chopped
1 large onion -- chopped
2 stalks celery -- chopped
1 pound ground beef -- browned
12 ounces ekrich Smoked Sausage
2 large chicken breast halves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder -- or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning (or more) -- (1/2
to 1)
Place canned tomatoes into a
large soup pot. Break or cut whole tomatoes into small pieces.
Fill tomato can with fresh or canned chicken brothand add to
tomatoes. (A combination of chicken broth and water may be usedbut
the soup is better if chicken broth is used.) Bring soup to a
boil and then reduce heat to allow soup to simmer while
remaining ingredients are prepared and added to the soup. Cut
green pepper, onion, and celery into bite size pieces.
Saut=E9 vegetables in butter until slightly tender. Add vegetables
to
soup mixture. Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Tony's seasoning
to soup.
(The more Tony's you add the
spicier the soup will be. I recommend
adding 1/2 t. at a time and tasting to determine your preference.
I
like it SPICY and have added as much as 1 T.) Brown the ground
beef, breaking
the ground beef into large bite size pieces. Add Ground Beef
to soup. Slice
the smoked sausage and then cut each slice into halves or quarters,
depending on the size of the sausage. Heat sausage in frying
pan. Add sausage to
soup. Cut chicken breast into bite size pieces. Brown chicken
in frying pan.
If there is not enough oil left from the ground beef and sausage
to
prevent the chicken from sticking, add a little butter to the
chicken. Add Chicken
to soup. Simmer soup for at least 15 minutes to allow flavors
to blend.
Serves 12 cups.
This soup freezes well. =B7 Any
leftover meat can be used in this soup.
I sometimes add leftover Honey Baked Ham or leftover taco meat,
etc.
Don't limit yourself to ground beef, sausage, and chicken. Experiment!
Try shrimp, crab, pork, etc. =B7 You can add other low carb.
vegetables for
variety. Just remember, adding vegetables will add carbohydrates.
You can remove
some of the soup and place in another soup pot with other vegetables
for your family. Potatoes, corn, and macaroni are excellent added
to this soup.
