Soups on....

. Let's Eat

The table is set for 2.

Soups on....

A little cool and overcast the other day so I decided to make some soup
and  raisin tea biscuits.

I started out making a mess here.....


But ended up with these scrumptious tea biscuits.



2 cups flour
1 tbsp of baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3 1/2 tbsp of butter. ( I used organic butter spread)
1 c raisins
milk to moisten . (I use almond milk)

Sift dry ingredients, then add butter and mix till course.
Add milk and raisins.
Mix till blended and roll out onto floured board.
Knead then roll out to 1" thick
Use your cutter and cut out 18 biscuits.
Grease cookie sheet and preheat oven to 450.
Make sure your biscuits touch so that you will have even heights.

I brushed the tops with butter spread before baking.

Then while they were baking I made soup.

2 cups of water
salt and pepper to taste
2 whole potatoes pealed and chopped into bite size
1 lge carrot pealed and chopped
1 whole sweet onion. diced into small pieces
1/4 of a cabbage sliced thinly
1 lge parsnip pealed and chopped
1/2 chili sauce and a squirt of ketchup.
simmer for 1 hour or till veg are cooked.

I hope you will try my recipes.
Have a great day !
Linda
