Need something that I can take to work with me in a flask… needs to be liquid blended type ideally, just for convenience…

Give me your best!

Beef bones, salt, water. Simmer 48 hours, add water when it gets low.

I always make my soups a bowl at a time, as a “dump” soup, using up leftovers I might have available. There’s no reason they couldn’t be blended up. My typical process:

  • Throw a mix of (possibly frozen) veggies (usually broccoli, cauliflower, carrots) into this microwave bowl.
  • Top with spices (Italian seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, …) and butter.
  • Microwave for several minutes.
  • If I want smaller veggie pieces, I chop with this.
  • Add whatever I have available – diced onions/celery/radishes, mushrooms, leftover meats, shredded cheese, hot pepper slices.
  • Add broth and/or unsweetened coconut milk.
  • Cover with slice of pepper jack cheese.
  • Microwave again for a few minutes.

Since everything is made and served up in the one bowl, cleanup is easy.

I generally spice my soups one of three different ways:

  • Normal, as spiced above
  • As a chili, using chili powder
  • As a curry, using curry powder and the unsweetened coconut milk

My chili might look like:

Ingredients

  • Chopped up burger (I’ve also done chicken)
  • Diced onions
  • Chicken broth
  • Salsa (or tomato sauce/paste)
  • Several teaspoons chili powder (and whatever other spices you like)

Directions

  • Toss all ingredients into a microwave safe bowl
  • Microwave until hot (I do about 4 minutes)
  • Top with cheese and sour cream

Just so everyone’s aware…this is the carnivore subforum so it’s not really productive to include vegetables unless you’re straining them out.

I’m not fond of soup, but my boyfriend is. Most of the dishes I make are based on ground beef. Sometimes I just add water to leftovers of some beef thing I made (e.g., chili or curry, Italian or East European, anything tasty), and serve it to him as soup. Putting it in a blender should work too.

Here’s something that might be good. I based it on recipes for “Jamaican patty” filling:

Pepper Beef

2 lb ground beef
3 onions (I use 3 Tbsp of dried minced onions)
3 Tbsp dried garlic
2 tsp black pepper
2 tsp curry powder
2 tsp turmeric
Salt to taste
1 Tbsp vinegar

Optional: half a teaspoon or more of allspice, cinnamon, ginger, thyme, and/or hot chilis, but try it without these first and see what you think.

I make this without water, but if you’re going to turn it into soup anyway. . . .

Might just go basic … Gammon stock, cream, chicken breast diced and blitzed, garlic, chilli, butter…

Here’s my quick soup. Three cups water. Add powdered soup base like found at Walmart. Set to boil. Microwave some fibrous frozen veggies. Once boiling, chop and add some bacon. Add leftover chopped meat if desired. Chop and add cooked veggies. Whisk several eggs, turn off heat and dribble eggs in like for egg drop soup. Add a couple of tablespoons of siracha and some ACV if you like it hot and sour. Enjoy.
