Adventures of the Happy Tummy

Rummaging through the pantry... cooped up at home since yesterday and it's time to use some canned goodies! It's still raining so weather's really cool. How about a soup dish? Yes? Tummy says yes! We'll need: 4 cups water 2 tsp chicken powder (Or use chicken broth) 1 can cream of shredded corn 1/2 carrots, diced 2 pcs medium potatoes, diced 3 cloves garlic, diced 1/2 white onion, diced 1 tbsp butter For seasoning: Dried thyme - fragrant! Salt White pepper Cayenne - to avoid cloying For thickening: 1/2 c all-purpose cream 4 tbsp flour dilluted in 4tbsp water Use a soup casserole, boil the water. Add chicken powder & all the other ingredients listed above.  Season to taste using the ones listed "for seasoning". If the taste is to your liking, add the "for thickening" and taste again. Ok? Alright, serve hot!!!

Inspired by Rachel Rae's meatloaf recipes, I opted to try out her most simple one: Cajun Style :) For now, I'm posting a picture of the recipe I've written down. Will wite it here soon afterwards, don't worry :) Added side notes are my own and based on our family's taste. I'm note: lean meat is used for ground pork so it will be a bit dry. Use meat with fats or add raisins for a juicier meal :) You're welcome to tweak it as I've already done so. I served it with ketchup due to time constraints :) You may use canned tomatoes or fresh ones as a sauce to top the meal. Check it out!
