What can I make with potatoes, onions, ...?

Question

Cheddar cheese soup...
I also have other fresh veggies, other condensed soups, herbs and spices, and all the basic kitchen ingredients. Can you give me a recipe using some or all of these things please. Thanks.

Answer 1

Here are some simple things I have thought of, with the ingredients provided-

Cheesy baked potato- Bake or mic the potato as normal. Meanwhile, dice up some onion, and saute it in a small sauce pan with a little butter. Then add in the cheese soup mix, and heat it all up. When the potato is done, and the soup and onion mix is heated well, split the potato length-wise down the middle, and pour in some of the cheese-onion mix. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and if you have it, some sour cream or bacon bits.

You could also make a scalloped potatoes dish, by slicing the potatoes and onions and frying them up in oil. Then add the cheese soup and some spices. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for a while, until it thickens up.

Also consider spicing up a bowl of condensed soup. Make the soup in a sauce pan, as usual, and then add in some adornments, so to speak. If you have some chicken noodle or cream of chicken, you could add in a little onion, and then some spices. Simmer for a while, to better enhance the flavor.

May I also suggest about making your own soup? If you have any cans of stock or bouillon mix. You could try a nice vegetable medley soup, made with chicken, beef, or veggie stock, and then the veggies that you have on hand. Add in some herbs, cook well, and voila, homemade soup!

I hope this has given you some ideas!

If you can lay hands on some bacon and some ordinary breakfast sausages, Dublin Coddle is really tasty, easy and inexpensive.

--Spray the bottom of a 4 or 5 quart pot (one with a lid) with cooking oil spray
--Slice the potatoes and onions about 1/4 inch thick. Cut the bacon into 1-inch pieces. Cut the sausages into about 3/4 inch pieces. Both of these are easier to cut with scissors than with a knife.
--Make a layer of potatoes in the bottom of the pot. They don't have to look pretty, because when this is cooked, it will be more or less a stew. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
--Put a layer of onion slices on top. Scatter some of the sausage and some of the bacon pieces over.
--Keep making layers of potato, onion, then sausage and bacon, until all are used, seasoning each potato layer as you go along. Finish with a layer of potato.
--Pour over 1 can of chicken broth, if you have it, or else 10 to 12 ounces of water. It may not seem like much liquid, but this is a stew, not a soup.
--Cover the pot and bring to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, until the potatoes and onions are tender. Before serving, stir in a good handful of chopped parsley. Ladle into bowls with a little of the cooking liquid spooned over, with plenty of bread.

This is an honest-to-goodness Irish "down-home" recipe that I've been making for a long time. It's nice because you can make it from the things you usually already have either in the cupboard or in the fridge. Have fun!--Leslie

I would just slice the onion and potato and saute them in butter together, and some bell pepper if you have it, or mushrooms, and just have that as a side dish. Top with shredded cheese if you have it.
