We have a temperature advisory until 10 am this morning. I had a duty shift for ski patrol yesterday and it we had 30 mph winds in addition to temperatures of -1 F. Good thing I had a big bowl of this soup before I left for the ski hill. The weather is going to be like this all week, so good thing I made a big batch.
The original recipe had just shrimp. I added the crab because the soup did not seem like it had enough shrimp. I also changed to whole milk to 1 % and used fat free half and half in stead of cream. The original recipe had red potatoes. I substituted those for more nutrient dense sweet potatoes. They pair really well with the seafood.
4 cups chicken broth
1 sweet potato cut into bite sized pieces
½ medium yellow onion chopped
½ cup carrot shredded
Salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon curry powder
6 tablespoons butter
6 tablespoons flour
1 cup 1 % milk
3 cups baby spinach and kale mix
8 ounces frozen cooked shrimp, thawed with tails removed
1 package imitation crab meat
2 cups fat free half and half
1 package imitation crab meat
2 cups fat free half and half
1 tablespoon lemon zest
Simmer broth, sweet potatoes, onions, carrot, curry powder,
salt and pepper in Dutch oven for 15 minutes.
Melt butter in a saucepan. Whisk in flour, then stir in milk and half and half. Stir into simmering soup base.
