Tips to Make Copycat Dolly Parton’s Stampede Soup

For a creamier soup, you can use heavy cream instead of half and half.
If you want a chunkier soup, reserve some of the mixed vegetables and stir them in just before serving.

Variation

If you want to switch things up, try adding cooked chicken or turkey to the soup for extra protein. You can also use different frozen vegetables like peas or corn for a new flavor.

FAQs

Can I use fresh vegetables instead of canned?
Yes, you can use fresh vegetables! Just make sure to cook them until they are tender before adding them to the soup.

Is this soup suitable for freezing?
Yes, you can freeze the soup. Just remember to leave out the half and half until you reheat it, as dairy products can separate when frozen.

What if I don’t have ground white pepper?
If you don’t have ground white pepper, black pepper works as a substitute, though it may alter the appearance slightly.
