Steak Soup

"From a cookbook called The Complete Guide to Country Cooking. This is the one of the best soups I have ever had! The paprika gives it a nice red color and it is very thick and filling on a cold winter's night."

  2. Excellent soup! I used basic stew meat & only had half a pound to use up so I halved the soup recipe for everything except the tomato paste (didn't want half a can leftover. lol) I did add about 3/4 cup water with the paste. I also didn't have celery on hand so I used about 1/2 tsp celery seed instead. The family agreed it was a bit too tomatoey but that was all my doing so no one deducted any stars. This is a 5 star recipe all the way around! I served it with my homemade dinner rolls. Thanks for sharing, hungrykitten! We will be making this again. Made for Photo Forum's January 2009 Belly Warmer's tag game.

I love food! I collect cookbooks and recipes and read them the way most people read novels. I have no children but I have two cats who also love to eat. I am also a movie buff and one of my biggest pet peeves is when people talk during a movie!
