Man Soup


I made some man soup last night that I'm actually kinda proud of. I planned to make a white turkey chili that is the best, but I didn't want to shop, so I made do with what I had. I think it's kinda healthy, too. Oh, and for good measure, you can throw a baked potato in the bowl and pour the soup over it. Here's what I had:

3 or 4 ribs celery sliced
2 or 3 medium onions chopped
as much garlic as you want smashed or chopped
one can black beans undrained
two cups chicken or beef stock
chopped leftover steak or chicken
two cups cooked quinoa
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp dried cilantro
1 tsp dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
Baked potato

Saute onions and celery in hot olive oil

Add garlic when onions get soft

When onions are translucent, add beans and stock.

Bring to boil lower heat and simmer for 15-20 min

Add steak, quinoa, cumin, cilantro, oregano. simmer for another 10 min or so. 


Add salt and pepper to taste.


Place baked potato in bowl, pour soup over. EAT.
