What is the first thing you think of you when you hear the word slime? Slugs? Snakes? Nickelodeon? Now you can add soup to the list! For part two of my Halloween food series, I made slime soup. Sounds disgusting, looks worse, but the taste? Divine.
How do you make slime soup? It’s quite simple and one of those recipes you can probably make with items you probably already have handy in your cupboard and freezer.
I will be quite honest, my son took one look at the soup and started gagging. He did like what he ate. But couldn’t get past the color! My husband and I? If we aren’t careful, we are going to turn into the Jolly Green Giant from eating. It is now being put into rotation as a regular menu item in the Pinch house.
Ingredients:
3 cup vegetable stock
20oz Frozen Green Peas
1 mozzarella ball
Instructions:
Heat vegetable stock to boiling. Add peas. Cook for 3-5 minutes until softened. While that is heating, chop up the mozzarella ball into large pieces. Blend the the peas (including the liquid) and mozzarella in 3 batches. If you use a blender, the puree will have a silky consistency. I used my food processor tonight to give it that swampy feel.
Pour the slime soup back into the pot and let it heat again for a few minutes. This helps the cheese to melt a little more and combine everything together.
Serve with crusty bread.
