Peanut Soup

Here are a few different peanut soup recipes that I combined to make mine.  First is the one I got from my sister.  It is delicious.  The second is a link to one I found online as I forgot I even had this one.  The final one was sent to me by a friend.  That's where I got the idea to use the green beans, which I had on hand.  This is an example of taking several recipes and making what you can out of what you have on hand.  


Indonesian Peanut Soup 

4 c. chicken stock
2 T. soy sauce
1 1/2 T molasses
2 T lemon juice
2 cloves garlic
Cilantro - optional

Saute garlic, and rest, simmer 15 minutes.
Add:

1/4 c. peanut butter
1 c. cooked chicken

Simmer 5 minutes, garnish with
1/2 c. green onions

I usually have to triple this recipe – I have no idea who they were feeding, but it looks like soup for two!
