V-8 or vegetable juice recipe?
Does anyone have a recipe which approaches commercial V-8? I would love to make my own.

Re: V-8 or vegetable juice recipe?
I have one I make called v-10. It knocks the socks off of v-8. The recipe is on page 3 of the thread that camp linked. It packs a punch!

Juicer

Yes, juicer needed.
What started this was that I pulled a fresh bottle of V-8 out of the fridge for lunch today. I love it, but don't buy it often because of the price. Even though our kitchen counter does not have the room, come harvest time I can see us making up batches of vegetable juice and freezing them. This would also make good vegetable stock for soups and stews.

Re: V-8 or vegetable juice recipe?
The juicer thread does have some pretty good information. I would just make sure it's something you're going to be into before dropping lots of green backs on a juicer. Some people also find they aren't into the fresh vegetable juices. I like and enjoy the juice, but for me it was a novelty that wore off quickly
Others are totally into it! And it is good for you.

Re: V-8 or vegetable juice recipe?
I also love V-8 - as a matter of fact, instead of dinner tonight,
I coulda had a V-8!
My mother used to use V-8 as a base for chili - pretty yummy!

I bet it would make a great chili Martha !!
My wife makes some kind of weight watchers veggie soup with v-8 that is pretty darn tasty too!

Re: V-8 or vegetable juice recipe?


If you or your wife felt like posting or pm'ing a recipe, I wouldn't mind.
Now back to our regularly scheduled topic...

Re: V-8 or vegetable juice recipe?
Hmmm...a weight watchers recipe in exchange for a recipe from a professional chef?
Sounds like a no-brainer!

Re: V-8 or vegetable juice recipe?
could happen....let's see, lobster bisque? N'Orleans (no, really!) style gumbo? Cream of wild mushroom? Curried coconut milk soup with mussels? Crab and corn chowder?
Why, might you ask, do I want the recipe for WW V-8 soup?
(That's how many times I belly up to the dinner table each night!)

You don't have to eat all of the specials every night!
Re: V-8 or vegetable juice recipe?
I don't? Well, why didn't anyone tell me that before???
Last night - soy-apricot lacquered salmon, prosciutto wrapped grilled asparagus and brown rice. The brown rice didn't even scare anyone off!
Let's see, then how about Thai pizza, with homemade (of course) flatbread, peanut sauce, and topped with al dente broccoli, zucchini, red and yellow bell peppers, onions and tomatoes. Being a bad chef's wife, I was scared of pizza with peanut butter, but it was o-my-God good!

To you, this looks like a white flag of surrender. To me, it looks like a good way to deliver a napkin to someone who is drooling all over.
