In my post on Tuesday, I mentioned that I’m vacationing on the island of Jamaica this week.
When Jack and I stared to plan this trip, I began to think about some of the foods we would be eating, like Jerk Chicken and Jamaican Rice and Peas (the "peas" in this popular dish are really kidney beans). I also looked forward to tasting lots of tropical fruits and fresh seafood too.
Here is a really easy soup recipe to bring a little "island cooking" into your home this week.
Spicy Tomato-Crab Soup
3 cans (19 oz each) Progresso® Vegetable Classics hearty tomato soup
1 can (4 oz) chopped green chilies
1 teaspoon Old Bay seafood seasoning *
1 can (6.5 oz) white crab meat **
1. In 3-quart saucepan, combine 3 cans soup, chilies and seafood seasoning.
2. Bring tomato soup mixture to a boil, over medium-high heat. Stir in crab meat and cook 1 minute until hot. Ladle soup into mugs or small soup bowls.
8 (1-cup) servings
*Old Bay seafood seasoning can be found at the spice isle of a supermarket. It comes in a yellow can.
** Miller Select Special white crab meat can be found at the meat department of a supermarket. It’s expensive (around $9.99/can) but you need only 1 can for this recipe.
