My wife is sensitive to MSG, while I'm trying to eat more vegetables and lose weight. Not finding any no MSG recipes in the stores (Giant Eagle in PA/OH primarily), I put this little concoction together in ten minutes. I'm certain many people have done it better. I just don't seem to find good no MSG recipes on the Internet. This has no preservatives that I can see, by the way.
Ingredients
16 oz. Reduced Fat Sour Cream (I like Breakstone's).
1 package Good Seasons Zesty Italian dressing and recipe mix.
1 pouch Tabatchnik Frozen Soup (my initial test is with Vegetable)
Instructions
Bring soup to a boil (I went past to make it a bit thicker), then cool while mixing sour cream and recipe mix in a bowl. Add soup, mix thoroughly, and refrigerate.
Result
I found it creamy and mild-tasting right after preparing, the bite being in the seasoning. I'm going to ask my wife if she thinks it needs more onion (or I'll try the Tabatchnik's "Frenchman's" soup next time. The bulk of the calories and sugars come from the sour cream.
I'd welcome your thoughts and postings for other recipes that easily substitute for prepared items that include MSG .
