Soup Dish

Ever wondered how to get rid of leftover veggies in your fridge without throwing them away? It doesn't have to be a waste of money for all the extra veggies you bought if you want to try this Soup A'la Jones!

There are two ways you can cook this. Either use canned veggies OR opt for fresh veggies (some leftover in the fridge).

 Finished Product
 Whole corn kernels
 Chicken debone
 Okra

Ingredients:

1 can Veggies OR you can opt for the fresh ones. (carrots, celery, potato, string beans)
1 can Whole corn kernel
1 can Cream of corn
1 lb Ground beef
2 medium size Onions
1 can whole tomatoes
1 can crushed tomato (to add up color in your soup)
3-4 pcs Chicken thighs
4-5 pcs of okra

In a medium size pot, put enough water to boil the chicken (the water you boil the chicken will be your broth, so make sure it's more than enough). Add onions to bring out the aroma and boil until chicken is soft. Take out the chicken and let it cool. Debone the chicken ones they reach room temp.

In separate pan,  saute more onions and mix your ground beef until brown, set aside.

In another separate pot, pour your canned veggies (or fresh ones), add your ground beef, tomatoes and corn kernels and bring to simmer. If you're using fresh veggies, use your chicken broth to cook the veggies. Add your chicken broth and while that simmers, cut the okras in circular or whatever you prefer to cut them and add them to your broth. Bring to simmer.

Lastly, pour the cream of corn and chicken on your soup.. a lil salt, simmer for a few more minutes and you're ready :)
