Recipe For Girl Scout Soup?

RE: Recipe For Girl Scout Soup? Post By Val (Guest Post) (06/30/2008) My college roommate told me they made something called Girl Scout Soup that sounds more like the Boy Scout version. Each girl was to bring a can of any soup that was not cream or cheese based, they would mix them all together. She said it was always good. I've always wanted to try it.

We always had a buttered piece of bread with it. Thanks again and thanks to all who answered. Nolasandy Report Spam or Abuse RE: Recipe For Girl Scout Soup? Post by Trisch (38) | (09/24/2007) Profile | Contact Straight from pages 367-368 of my 1977 edition of the Brownie and Junior Girl Scouts Handbook, World's to Explore is the following recipe: One-pot meals easy to make and clean up after. Here is a favorite Girl Scout one-pot meal. Look for others in cook-books: Girl Scout Stew 2 - pounds hamburger 1 - onion, peeled and cut in small squares 1 - Tablespoon fat 2 - 10 3/4 ounce cans condensed vegetable soup salt and pepper to taste Add salt and pepper to hamburger, and separate hamburger into little pieces, or make little balls of it. Put fat in bottom of kettle. Fry hamburger and onion until the onion is light brown and hamburger is well browned all over. Pour off excess fat. Add vegetable soup and enough water to prevent sticking. Cover and cook slowly until meat is cooked through. Serve hot. Did it taste good? The next time you cook out, try another meal in a pot. I hope this is what you were looking for. Enjoy any and all of the recipes you try! Trisch in Troy, IL Report Spam or Abuse RE: Recipe For Girl Scout Soup?

I simply remembered an episode of the Adams Family where firl scouts were selling cookies and the Adams' little girl asked them if they were made with real girl scouts.

When we went camping the Scoutmaster suggested we each bring a can of something. I remember one "stew" with salmon, tuna, Vienna sausage, green beans, English peas, pork & beans, and two eggs. There was some other stuff too but that's what I remember. (And I don't recall how the eggs survived the hike.) One suggestion for any soups or stews: except for the tomatoes try not to use any canned vegatables. We didn't have such a luxury when camping in those days, but if possible use only fresh or frozen veggies. Another suggestion: try to organize a camping party among your lady-friends, pick out a suitable campsite, and do it all again. And have fun! Report Spam or Abuse RE: Recipe For Girl Scout Soup?

THAT is Heaven in a foil pouch! Report Spam or Abuse RE: Recipe For Girl Scout Soup?

Post By (Guest Post) (09/21/2007) Some where I have lots of Girl Scout one pot meal recipes. Most start with ground beef and onions. It always tasted better cooked over the campfire! My favorite: add tomato sauce and corn, let simmer than throw in chunked up cheese and let it melt. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Recipe For Girl Scout Soup? Post by nolasandy (16) | (09/21/2007) Contact These recipes are what I remembered. It just didn't taste quite the same - Ground Beef, Canned Veg. Soup, and Onions. I guess it's more the memories and you have to be in a great woodsey camp with a campfire and a bunch of friends to make it taste the same. Thanks to all who took the time to answer!

I still make it from time to time with MY favorite vegetables! Report Spam or Abuse RE: Recipe For Girl Scout Soup?
