Dixie Stampede Creamy Vegetable Soup
Description
This soup features a blend of mixed vegetables—peas, corn, green beans, and carrots—prepared individually to maintain their distinct flavors and textures. Some vegetables are reserved for garnish while the rest are ground finely to form the body of the soup.
A roux made from margarine or butter and all-purpose flour provides a creamy thickening agent when combined with chicken broth. The pureed vegetables are added to the pot along with garlic and onion powders for gentle seasoning. The soup is brought to a boil, then simmered to meld flavors.
Heavy whipping cream enriches the broth for a smooth and luscious finish, while salt and pepper adjust seasoning. The reserved vegetables added as a garnish add texture variation and a fresh, colorful appearance.
This soup makes a comforting starter or light meal, with creamy texture and subtly sweet vegetable flavor perfect for cooler days or when gentle on the palate.
