What Kind of Things Do You Put in Your Soup or Food?

LOL I haven't done it for YEARS but I used to put cashews in a cold bottle of Pepsi!
When I was a kid I liked a fried egg sandwich on Wonder bread, with ketchup. How white is that?

French fries dipped in ice cream is yummy!

On waffles, strawberry jam and whipped chream!

My son likes a fried egg sandwich with peanut butter and cheese.

I love to make fancy grilled cheese to accompany soups. Yes, I'll do typical cheddar cheese but I love to throw Havarti and mozzarella together. I love to throw in tons of veggies into any soup I make. I put prosciutto into most of my veggie soups to add more flavor. I don't do anything different I suppose other than occasionally make homemade croutons to go with various soups or you know just to eat. I eat peanut butter on all types of bread or bread products, this includes tortillas and crackers. This even includes dipping cheez-its into peanut butter. My kids think I'm ewww and my husband rolls his eyes. They don't know what they're missing!

My husband always thinks it's odd that I eat my corn dogs with mayo.

A fried egg makes EVERYTHING better.

I love croutons in my creamy soups. For broth soups, saltine crackers.

Nothing better than mixing corn & mashed potatoes together.

Sour cream also makes everything better.

I put mushrooms in soup, any soup. I put crumbled up pie crust in chicken pot pie soup. Bacon can go into pretty much anything, in my opinion! I can put salsa on just about everything, and do! I like to dip pork chops into applesauce.

Of course, cheese. Cheese go anywhere, anytime. Cheese makes life better. I like to sprinkle parm cheese on a cookie sheet and bake it to make chips. Those are GREAT in tomato soup.

Fun question!!

I'm orginally from Texas and I put peppers, pepper flakes and/or hot sauce on just about everything!!!LOL!!

Last year I discovered Parm cheese flavored goldfish crackers with tomato soup and LOVE it!

I could probably make a huge long list for this question...

Hmmm...

Silken tofu with mango sauce mixed in. Everyone I have introduced this wonderfully simple dessert to has loved it. It is one of my son's favorite breakfast/snacktime foods. (80g silken tofu broken up, mix in about1-2 tablespoons mango/blueberry/strawberry yogurt sauce)

Ham and cream cheese on a sesame roll with lettuce, caesar salad dressing, and the magic ingredient: shiso leaf. So delicious. It can be eaten with a slice of cheddar cheese instead of the cream cheese, but...

Rice balls with rasins and cinnamon sugar in the center. Some of my Japanese friends love this, others think I am crazy.

ETA:

best tuna salad ever: tuna, mayonnaise, garlic powder, cumin powder, paprika, pepper, dried parsely (for sandwiches, rice balls, mixed with Goya bitter melon, etc... so yummy!)

Jess E. my son and my husband also like their also eat their egg sandwich with peanut butter, but they include bacon and mayo.
Both my son and I love our turkey Sanwitch with mayo and jelly.
I'm a weirdo and I like to eat weird stuff ( not weird it self but the combo is weird). I like my tuna with jalapeños, egg, mayo, pepper and salt, sometimes a splash of lime.
I eat pizza with jalapeños and applesauce. French fried dipped in ice cream or a shake. Ranch in almost everything!!

Grilled cheese with jalepenos sounds awesome! Some ham too!

I don't like tomato soup, no matter what is added to it. I hated it as a kid, and then tried to like it as an adult...but I just don't. It makes me gag. V8 is even worse.

The local grocery sells bread with garlic cloves baked into it. I could eat the whole loaf. I love it.

I love a fried egg on my cheeseburger. Or some avocado slices. I also love to have avocado on my turkey sandwiches.

I love peanut butter on my pancakes and French toast too! :-)

I also love a peanut butter and butter sandwich. Or peanut butter and honey.

Johnny's Salad Seasoning on my mac and cheese. It's also awesome on garlic bread.

I love having sweet things with my popcorn. Popcorn and Red Vines. Popcorn and dark chocolate. Popcorn and Sour Patch Kids. Mmmm!

For a treat I love a no-ice cream root beer float. 1/4-1/2 Cup of Creme Brulee liquid coffee creamer, ice and root beer. Tastes just like a root beer float, with no chunks of ice cream! YUM! Use diet soda for less sugar.

:-)

ETA: Forgot a few: I LOVE ridged potato chips on my egg salad sandwich. Also love to dip McDonald's fries in a chocolate shake. And I recently found that apple slices dipped in chunky bleu cheese dressing is AMAZING!

I like shredded cheese in my soup. I've enjoyed parm, cheddar, & blue cheese in tomato soup. Not all at the same time though. I also like croutons in my soup.

PB on pancakes is good! I like applesauce on waffles. I love hollandaise sauce! I put it on omelets, hash, potatoes, veggies, etc.

The longer I am in Texas, the more spicy I like my food. Last time I made tuna, I put jalapeños in it! It was good!

I love Tabasco in almost anything: soup, on sandwiches, on eggs. Same goes with pickled jalapenos. The spicier, the better.

In my Christmas stocking, Santa brought me some of those dried mangoes with chili powder on them from Trader Joe's. Man, I could eat those non-stop. It sounds awful, but it's delicious!

I love the idea of popcorn with tomato soup. Yum!

I think you can add bacon to almost anything, and it will improve the dish. Think about it: cupcakes with bacon? Awesome! Waffles with bacon? Heck yeah! Soup (of any kind) with bacon? You bet! You can put bacon on ice cream, salads... really anything. And Pancetta? The bacon of the gods. Seriously.

Will my family think it's weird if I make tomato soup with tabasco and popcorn, with a side of grilled cheese and jalapeno? And then some Rocky Road ice cream with bacon on it for dessert?

On my grilled cheese I put tomato's and dill pickles and my husband puts onions and bread and butter pickles on his. My husband and 10 year old also add cheese and bread and butter pickles to their BLT's (son actually leaves the T off). I can't think of the other weird stuff my husband puts in his food but there are lots of things with him.

I like crunchy with creamy - like pretzels, crackers or Triscuits in soup or cottage cheese (I also love hot sauce in my cottage cheese - I can get creamy, crunchy and spicy all in one!). And, yes, I get weird looks.

I like to pump mine up with as many veggies as I can to trick my kids into eating them :o)

Frank's hot sauce goes on pretty much anything savory I eat, I'm completely addicted to it. I make a mean hot wing cole slaw with cabbage, Frank's, ranch, bacon bits, craisens, and blue cheese.

ETA: Bacon! Nuff said.

Rainbow chard. Prewashed in a bag from Trader Joes. It's my latest "go to" item to throw into soup. Adds good color, taste and texture. Yum.

Infused olive oils. We have a new shop in town that sells these. You can taste test first. I drizzle the persian lime infused olive oil on salads, W. mushroom oil on cooked vegies. Double yum.

I dip my grilled cheese in Franks.

If I am having grilled cheese with tomato soup I just dunk the grilled cheese in the tomato soup. If no grilled cheese I like to put shredded cheddar on my tomato soup and lots of black pepper. Goldfish are good too, if I have them.

My ten year old puts popcorn on his hot dog.

My husband puts peanut butter and syrup on french toast. I will put pb&j on pancakes.

I like tomato soup with a piece of good sourdough, toasted with some cheese on it. Yum!

I rarely put anything IN my soup, unless it's a sandwich to dip or rice to thicken it. Not a fan of soggy crackers.

I love olives in my scrambled eggs. I'll even pit'em if need be, then mince them. Some fresh chevre on top. Yum!

Hummus on toast is also delicious. Feta crumbled on quinoa or couscous. And I love ranch+ketchup on my tater tots, which we make once in a blue moon at home. (Save those for when we are out, better that way!)

For soup:
Hyotan (a type of squash commonly used here).
pasta
noodles
W. rice
ong choy
choi sum
the typical carrots and potatoes
zucchini
beans
barley
ginger
garlic
already crisped/cooked bacon
corn
mushrooms
kale

Peanut butter and bacon sandwiches, sometimes with thinly sliced apples, sometimes not. Really, I'll try to put bacon on anything I can. I was in heaven when chocolate cupcakes with bacon sprinkles on top were popular. (Of course I make my own now.)

ETA: Hell on Heels: Yes! Bacon! I also like spicy foods. My kids love my hot cocoa with a dash of cinnamon and a dash of cayenne. MMMMMM! Pair it with a peanut butter and bacon sandwich and I will be absolutely and completely content.

Grilled cheese or quesadilla with provolone and mozzarella cheese and avocados. My 1 yr old loves it. I bought breakfast sandwiches over the weekend so my kids could quickly grab breakfast this week. They discoverred them yesterday and ate them for lunch. They got a suprise. not reading the box, they opened and wrapped up in paper towel for the microwave. Instead of an english muffin, the "bread" was a pancake. They loved them so now they will make them on the weekend.

OMG Peanut Butter and Bacon sandwiches sound SO good!!! I have peanut butter and real bacon bits here at work so I warmed them up then spooned my pb into the bacon. Heaven!

I eat my chili with PB Sandwiches. I had a friend who used to eat warmed tortillas with butter with chili.

In my soups I have put spaghetti sauce, sun dried tomatoes, pumpkin puree.

I have had popcorn in cerviche before and it's really good!!

Sometimes I drizzle ice cream caramel sauce on my popcorn - Voila! Caramel ice cream.

French fries in shakes for sure!!

French fries and pretty much ANYTHING (pizza included) with ranch. Sour cream on pizza is good too.

Peanut Butter with chocolate chips or dunked in Nutella.

Pickles and fake crab in my salads.

Green olives with shredded cheddar cheese on my tortilla chips (or Cheese Doritoes) for nachos.

Tortilla chips with salsa and sour cream. Tortilla chips with ranch and salsa, too!

My kids eat their scrambled eggs with syrup.

Hubby will put horseradish, jalapenos, pickles and relish in his tuna.

My youngest eats her GF waffles with peanut butter, and only peanut butter. One every morning, if I let her. She hates syrup and butter...oh well!!! :) :)

Hm...I put mustard in my homemade mac and cheese.

I can't think of any other odd additions, honestly...but I'm looking forward to reading what others have to say!

I put chopped jalapenoes in my hush puppy batter.

I put fig preserves in my oatmeal.

I love goldfish in my tomato soup. I have had grilled cheese with jalepenos its yummy add a little sliced tomato and turkey and its even better.

growing up my dad liked his pancakes with peanut butter and miracle whip.

Before I developed my peanut allergy I LOVED peanut butter toast sandwich with bacon on it ~ I convinced my 8 y/o, and his cousins, to try it this past weekend they loved it too!

My Mom's favorite sandwich is peanut butter, mayo and pickles ~ never did try that one.

I miss cheese!!! (Dairy now makes me violently ill. I can't even have butter!!! Aaaaargh. Do you know how many delicious things are made with butter??? Sniff. Okay, moving on. But be warned, anything dairy I USED to love, but now simply mourne).

- Nutritional Yeast on popcorn

- Swiss cheese toasted instead of mayo for sandwiches

- cilantro, peas, carrots,& tomato/red pepper soup on rice

- South African Smoke (trader joes), Pepperman (whole foods), sriachi, avocado, bacon, Franks Buffalo, Italian pasta herbs w red pepper, & wakame on waaaaaaay too many things. Seriously.

- Frenchfries dipped in chocolate shake

- Greens on pizza

- eggs deep fried in bacon grease

- chicken stock in mashed potatoes

- bacon : the culinary excuse (Bacon is sold in Israel & Riyad. I don't believe its actually pork. I think bacon is unicorn meat. Also possibly ribs are unicorn meat. I haven't decided.). I particularly like bacon wrapped grilled jalapeño poppers. But, really, bacon wrapped anything is yummy.

- white wine vinegar in my Devilled eggs

- chocolate in my Chilli

- Salt & Pepper Chips dipped into cottage cheese

- chocolate syrup + milk = hot cocoa

my soups have veggies in them (boring, but hey it's healthy). my kids eat their creppes with either honey or jam i like mine with crumbled feta cheese.

I put A1 on my baked potato and hot sauce in my spaghetti!

I forgot the damn crackers Cheryl! RAWR!

I like green olives sliced up in my Mac and Cheese. Hubby does that plus tomato juice. Daughter just uses the tomato juice!

Can't think of anything else too out of the norm?

My Moms big family recipe for meatballs (Spaghetti and Meatballs..we are Italian...), has raisins in the meatballs. Most people think that is weird? Makes them super moist and a little sweet burst to them!

I make stone soup and read the story to the kids. I do have a nice sized stone that routinely gets washed in the dishwasher after being used.

We start with meat already cooked with garlic and onions in it. Then we add tomato juice if we want a red style stew or beef broth if we want a clearer stew.

I add a can of Veg-All in the small pieces, the celery is much easier to do if it's cut in small pieces. Then I add at least one can of original Ro-Tel tomatoes. They add just the right amount of spice.

I drain all the canned veggies.....a can of corn, can of green beans, stuff the kids like. Then I add a can of Sweet Sue Sweet Potatoes, again, cut in small pieces. Then I let this all heat up through the day then eat it for a couple of days with crackers.

We put rotel in lots of soups.

Garlic, basil, and jalapenos go into most soups and pastas that we make.

Rosemary is great on potatoes.

My favorite treat is to mix cocktail peanuts and m&ms (plain and peanut). I love the salty and sweet mixture!

We grow garlic, basil, rosemary, and jalapenos, so they're all fresh. This year we're greatly expanding our garden, so we'll have lots more fresh veggies and herbs.

I eat grape jelly on my sausage biscuits.
miracle whip and banana sandwiches
noodles with my chili
I used to eat ketchup on everything, all the way to ketchup sandwiches.

Made soup this week: chicken wings, package broth, fresh carrots, fresh potaoes, canned corn, shrimp, tomato sauce, seasonings, WOW girls! Its delicious!

Plain and wholesome delicious popcorn.

I still need a child's divider plate. I don't like my foods to touch:)
