Categories     Low Cholesterol

Time 1h50m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb hot dog
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup onion, chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
2 cups carrots, 1/2 inch slices
2 garlic cloves, crushed
6 cups water
2 (13 3/4 ounce) cans chicken stock
1 lb lentils, canned, rinsed
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon fresh basil, chopped

Steps:

  • The kids can help to slice up the hot dogs into 1 inch pieces by using plastic knives.
  • Start with a large soup pot. Sauté the hot dogs in the oil until they are browned. Remove the hot dogs & refrigerate. Next, sauté the onion, celery, carrots and garlic for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Add the water, stock, lentils, salt, pepper, and basil. Bring to a boil, and then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • Adjust the seasonings and add the hot dogs back in to warm them through. Serves 8 to 10.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality hot dogs: Opt for hot dogs made with premium ingredients and avoid those containing excessive fillers or preservatives.
  • Enhance the flavor with seasonings: Experiment with a variety of seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, and cayenne pepper, to create a flavorful soup base.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Incorporate a mix of vegetables, such as carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and corn, to add texture, color, and nutritional value to the soup.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: Avoid overcrowding the pot with ingredients, as this can prevent them from cooking evenly and result in a watery soup.
  • Simmer for a rich flavor: Allow the soup to simmer for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Adjust the consistency: If desired, blend a portion of the soup to create a creamy texture, or add more water or broth to achieve a thinner consistency.
  • Garnish before serving: Enhance the presentation of the soup by garnishing it with chopped green onions, sour cream, shredded cheese, or crumbled bacon.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, hearty hot dog soup is a versatile and budget-friendly dish that can be easily customized to suit your preferences.
