Bon Voyage Soup
This looks very similar to my New Orleans Bean Soup. We are leaving on vacation for 3 weeks and I was trying to clean-out my refrigerator. I had two sweet potatoes, a large onion, 2 cloves of garlic, 6 carrots, 1/4 head of cabbage, about 2 cups of cooked pinto beans, a carton of chicken stock, a can of diced tomatoes, and about 10 chicken tenders in the freezer. I added a little oil in the bottom of my dutch oven, added the onion and garlic. Then started adding carrots, sweet potato, and cabbage. I let these cook about 15 minutes while I browned the chicken in a separate pot. After the chicken was done, I added that to the pot along with the pinto beans, chicken stock, and diced tomatoes. It cooked another hour until the vegetables were fork tender. I was a little surprised that it turned out so good. Jud made some cornbread and that was dinner. Oh, I also added 2 limes that I cut in half. It added a little something that I really liked. My refrigerator is ready for us to leave on vacation. I'm ready and packed. I just have to wait until my ticket says it is time to go. Bon Voyage. See you in 3 weeks.
