Hi Dave,

DD> eccentric." This is one of my made up on the fly recipes that worked
DD> out very well. Had it for swupper last night.


DD>       Title: Can Opener Corn Chowder
DD>  Categories: Five, Vegetables, Chilies, Dairy
DD>       Yield: 3 Servings

RH> It's a no can (no pun intended) do around here because of the corn.
RH> Don't think peas or beans would work as well and I don't want Steve to
RH> have a migraine.

DD> I know. You'll have to make do with with tasting it in your
DD> imagination. That's a shame because it was surprisingly good.

I can sort of taste it; don't think it's one I would do even if Steve
could eat corn. I don't use too many canned vegetables, tomatoes (I
know, they're really fruit) being the main one. Just something about the
taste of most of them that doesn't appeal to us.


DD> Here's a can opener soup you can serve Steve and 7 others:

DD>       Title: Spicy 7-can Soup w/Ground Beef
DD>  Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Soups, Chilies
DD>       Yield: 8 servings

DD>       1 lb Ground beef
DD>       1 md Onion; chopped
DD>  32 3/4 oz (3 cans) minestrone soup
DD>      15 oz (2 cans) Ranch-style beans
DD>      10 oz Can Ro*Tel tomatoes w/green
DD>            - chilies
DD>  14 1/2 oz Can diced tomatoes
DD>       2    Cubes beef bouillon
DD>       4 c  Water

Looks like it can't decide if it wants to be vegetable beef soup or
chili. (G) Decades ago, when I was a Brownie Scout, our troop had a week
of day camp. We took turns (in small groups, with an adult supervising)
making lunch; one day it was a basic hamburger stew. Just brown ground
beef, add canned vegetable soup and water, simmer for a few minutes.
Quick and easy to do over a campfire.
