Some cute (but disqualified) entries for the Magic Soup Contest

We got a kick out of these entries, especially since they were from adults entering the Magic Soup Contest. The age limit was 14-years old but that didn't stop some of our friends from wanting to tell us about their version Magic Soup.

Bob, 48 years old, from KY writes:

Claude's Louisiana Gumbo. You start with a roux of butter, flour and spices. Then you add fresh chicken, okra, tomato, green pepper, chili peppers and, of course, andouille sausage. You add the seafood for the last minutes only to avoid it getting rubbery.

Hazel, age 39, writes:

Right out of the can into the pot.

Susan, age 63, writes:

My magic pot of soup would be made with chocolate kisses. Yummy! :D

Shirley, age 73, writes:

Seek and dump. Start with a pot of chicken stock, then seek good stuff from fridge, freezer and pantry that tickles your fancy. Exotic and plain, sweet and sour, add some salt and pepper, put the lid on the pot and simmer for 2 hours sort of, tap occasionally with your magic wand and fingers crossed. The result is a magic soup. Never made a magic soup that everyone didn't like.

Maybe Bob, Hazel, Susan, and Shirley will inspire an "over 18" essay contest!

Thanks for sharing!
