• Tomato, carrot, and beet soup with pulp bread croque madame

3 tomatoes, 2 carrots, 1 beet, 1 ear of corn, and Greek yogurt were all that I bought at the store (under eight smackeroos). I had a bag of flour, eggs, and some beer at home. And with those simple things, I was able to make a silky Tomato, Carrot, Beet soup. It was clean in flavor, thin in texture like the liquid in a gazpacho, and dotted with a confetti of corn for extra umph. <br /> <br />UMPH! <br /> <br />After straining my pureed veggies, however, I was left with a pile of sunset colored pulp. And instead of the compost bin, I decided to pour it straight into a bowl of flour, baking powder, and beer. With a few pinches of pepper and cayenne, of course, for extra spice. <br /> <br />An hour, a quick toast, and two fried eggs later, I had a soup and sandwich dinner for two that was flavored by fresh ingredients, totally healthy (and salt-free), and of course, cheap. <br /> <br />Did I mention it cost under 8 buckaroos?
