Linking up with Cait for the last day of the 12 Days of Christmas for a little Christmas Musings.
This is really more of a musing instead of several. A couple years ago I gave as gifts a jar of potato soup mix. I don't have a picture of the jar but here's something like what I gave:
And just imagine it was potato soup inside!
Supplies:
1 qt. jar with lid
Cardstock
Printer
Thin ribbon/string/yarn/raffia
Tissue paper/fabric
Ingredients for approximately one jar:
1-3/4 cups instant mashed potatoes
1-1/2 cups dry milk
2 T. instant chicken bullion
(or vegetable if making for a vegetarian)
2 tsp. dried minced onion
1 tsp. dried parsley
1/4 tsp. ground white pepper
1/4 tsp. dried thyme
1/8 tsp. turmeric
1-1/2 tsp. seasoned salt
*Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix. Place in 1 quart canning jars.
*Decorate with your supplies. If your lid is 2 pieces place round disc on 1st, then fabric, then outer rim.
*Print the following instructions on card stock, cut out and attach to each jar.
Potato Soup
To Serve: Place ½ cup of soup mix in a soup bowl and add 1 cup of boiling water. Stir until well blended.
Makes 6-8 servings.
Mix in bacon bits and cheese to make it loaded potato soup! Enjoy!!
I got a lot of compliments that the soup was great, and it was easy to put together!
What a great idea! I have been pondering doing something like this for some people...love the idea! Thanks for sharing!
