Cookout soup

Jul 04, 2013

I adore 4th of July cookouts, but given it is pouring down rain in ATL today AND I am on a full liquid diet, I needed to improvise! I did some hunting around the jaw surgery boards and came up with a soup that looked like it just might work. Here is what goes into it. I'm not much of a measure-and-document recipe builder, so YMMV. This recipe is inspired by my mom's pork and beans, but if you are just as happy with Bush's and don't mind the carbs, have at it.

2 hot dogs, uncooked

1 small can Van Camp's pork and beans (it was about 1 cup of beans)

Mustard

Ketchup

Small amount of brown sugar

beef boullion

water

Put the entire mess in the blender/Magic Bullet and blend till it's the consistency you want. I pulverized the hot dogs first, and then added the beans. I ended up putting in a bit more water when it put it in my bowl. It filled one of the Magic Bullet mixing containers; I think that is about 2 cups.

Bon appetit!

Update: I think I got a bit too much ketchup and mustard in there (sort of like when I actually make my beans), and I could not taste the hot dog, but overall it wasn't too bad. I could only eat about 1/4 cup before I felt full.
