I've got a qt of whipping cream. Entree or soup ideas?

[sunshineandpinot]

Need to use this up- would love some ideas besides chic alfedo. Soup would be a good option?

I might as well gain 10 lbs just thinking about it :/

This is amazing. Even if you had blue cheese, it's still delicious.

Mac and cheese, cream of potato/tomato/cauliflower soup, loaded baked potato soup.
You can also freeze it. I pour mine into an ice cube tray so that I can pull out a little at a time. (Shake really well before pouring to freeze).

This chicken & mushroom skillet is one of my favorites.

I made a quiche last night with my leftover heavy cream.

Make homemade whipped cream to put on a pie or dip with peppermint joejoe's or put on hot chocolate or coffee or ice cream....

These are not suggestions you asked for.

If you can get some leeks, a good potato leek soup with some crisped up bacon sprinkled on the top is a good use for it.

A restaurant we go to serves softly whipped unsweetened cream with their coffee at the end of a meal. It's totally decadent, but LOVE it.

I was going to say this too, but I wanted to add that homemade whip doesn't keep any longer than 24 hours or so. Make it and eat it with a spoon (not that I've ever done that).

Pot pie

[rockpaperscissors]

I always put in any dish that calls for milk if I have a little extra cream. So mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, etc.



But Giada's vodka sauce is one of my favorite sauces and that calls for cream too. Link

frozen whipped cream to be eaten like ice cream is good too. Just sayin'

[fortnightlily]

I have a lot too. I don't know what I'm gonna do with it. Quiche? Curry?

[tealblue]

allrecipes.com/recipe/16962/easy-white-chili/ I have a recipe similar to this that I love. I also add ground turkey. At the end (before serving it), pour 1/2 - 1 cup heavy whipping cream and a cup of sour cream and stir in the pot. It's healthy

Carbonara

Get out the mixer and whip it up for berry topping. Don't add sugar and it's the perfect low-carb snack. WALLA!

[sunshineandpinot]

All fabulous suggestions, thank you! I'm eyeing the vodka sauce, yum! (tomatoes = healthy!) I think even my girls will eat that. Ha! Vodka for the 7 and 4 year old! 

Ahhh, it will be the perfect accompaniment to the wedge of brie sitting in my frig #thisiswhyicantloseweight

And then I'll do a soup. 

If opened on Thursday how long do you think it's good for? (yes, a smell test is the best.) A week? 2?

Olive Garden Chicken Crostini. It is seriously amazing but we do without the potato in the crust.

I love vodka sauce. I also came in here to suggest tomato bisque, I've been craving it lately.

Almost forever.

I normally have a pint in the fridge at all times and it takes me a couple weeks to go through it.  I think I put the dregs of the last pint in the mashed potatoes I made this weekend.

I'm trying this soup tonight: link

[dexteroni]

This is delicious. You could make extra sauce and serve it over pasta. www.closetcooking.com/2014/10/chicken-in-creamy-parmesan-and-sundried.html

I used the leftover cream in my coffee.

[megstoo]

We had some left and I ended up making fettuccine Alfredo with a salad and garlic breadsticks.

[balletofangels]

I have leftover half and half. Dumb question, but will that work in these recipes?

[mala]

You cam also just whip it until it turnes into butter. best fresh butter ever. add herbs and spices for compound butter. yum.

Potato soup, chicken and gnocchi soup

[balletofangels]

I think I am going to try this damndelicious.net/2015/10/15/slow-cooker-chicken-and-corn-chowder/?m

They give measurements at the bottom to use full cream

[JayhawkGirl]

This is my favorite cheese soup, Free State Cheddar Ale soup out of Lawrence, KS. It's amazing. You can use other ales - Free State distributes some around the Midwest but not far. Alma cheese is local also, just any good cheddar I've used cheddar from the fancy cheese section and Cracker Barrel white cheddar from the regular cooler.

God, I love dairy.

If you've never made cream scones, you have to use some of it for that. If you've also got pumpkin laying around, we made this tonight and its awesome (it also calls for 1/2 cup heavy cream):

This thread reminded me that I had a pint of cream to use up too, so I poured it into a mason jar and shook the shit out of it.

Fresh butter, anyone?? LOL!

It would have worked in the one I posted.
