Thank you for sharing this!

Thank you for this, I think I'll try. Can you buy just a parm rind? Or do you have to buy the parm and save the rind? Thanks again.

Well, I'm new to Recipe Swap - but after seeing this Vegetable Soup recipe, I think I just became a huge fan of reading and hopefully posting some recipes. Only been with the Q for a year. The veggie soup looks delicious - and on a bitterly cold winter night in Wisconsin, I can't wait to try it. Thanks much!

This looks really good!

There is a thread about making paragraphs on iPads in Electronics. I just learned how myself. That's why I love these boards, I'm always learning new things!

You learn something new here all the time! Just like I did on parm ch rinds for soups! I have made soups forever and never heard of that suggestion before. I can't wait to try it! Thanks Ladies!

ValuSkr yes, most stores sell just the rind of the Parm. Welcome cmgm, you will get some great recipes here. These recipes and the advice I have received here have made me a much better cook.

I have amazing onion soup recipe that goes great with garlic bread.

3 onions cut in strips with butter
2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp onion soup mix
1/8 tsp black pepper
6-8 C water
1 Tbsp soy sauce

Bring to a boil and simmer

I find this recipe serves about 6-8 but it also freezes very well. So I like to double or make 1 and half times the amount this recipe calls for and freeze it for a rainy day!

I found this really cool online recipe converter that will make the conversions for you ( if you are allergic to math like I am!)

I have always put about 1/2 head of finely shredded cabbage in my vegetable soup. I really think that is the secret to many compliments I get. Have to hide it from hubby, however. Once it is cooked, no one knows.

I always added okra to mine to add a little thickness. Our boys never figured that one out! Now, with more vegetables everywhere, and several years later, it's easy.

I made this soup for dinner tonight. I did add browned ground beef to make it a Veg/Beef soup, also maybe 1/4 cup red wine to deglaze the pan I browned everything in, and I did add the Parm rind in (I also do, when I have one). This soup is delicious, and added bonus, I have 2 containers of this soup now to add to my freezer for quick meals on busy days. Thanks so much for posting this recipe.
