My family’s favorite soup recipe is beer cheese soup. I used to make it every Christmas when we all lived closer.

I made the peanut soup today and had some for lunch. Oh my goodness I wanted to eat the whole pot full . It is delicious!.
I made the BLT in a bowl soup from yout cookbook last week. I used dried tortellini from the pasta aisle instead of frozen. The soup was very good except the longer cooking time for the tortellili evaporated too much of th tomato soup. When I reheated it for lunch I stirred in a cup or so of V8. Still delicious

We don’t make soup very often — it’s not my children’s favorite — but one thing they do like is corn chowder. I use frozen corn, and heat it up in a dutch oven with chicken broth and pepper and herbs to taste. I let that simmer for a good while, then carefully transfer the dutch oven contents to my blender or food processor and whir until everything is smooth. Then I pour everything back into the dutch oven and heat it up again, adding milk (or cream if you want to be decadent). Sometimes I cook potatoes and put chunks of potato in the soup too.

My family’s favorite soup is my Mom’s Hamburger Soup. Not only is it very low fat, but it has lots of veges it in so it’s really good for you too!

Fry up about a pound (or so) of hamburger in a soup pot with a small, diced onion, some garlic (if you like garlic), oregano, and pepper. Drain grease and discard. Fill up pot about 1/2 to 2/3 with water. Add 1 can of green beans, 1 can of diced stewed tomatoes, one can of corn, 5-6 diced potatoes (I leave the skins on because I’m too lazy to peel them), 4 or 5 diced carrots, 2-3 chopped celery stalks, and 1-2 bay leaves. Let simmer until potatoes are cooked. If you’d like you can substitute barley for the potatoes. Just add a tad more liquid if you’re going to use barley. I always serve with buttermilk biscuits. Super duper yummy!!!!!

our favorite is beef barley-I use beef broth, small diced pieces of beef, carrots, celery, diced onions, barley. If I have leftover veggies I put them in a bag in the freezer and then add it to my soup

I forgot to mention that you should add the juice of half a lime to the soup once you have finished cooking it!

Our favorite soup is a variation on Chicken Enchilada soup.

2-3 cups chicken broth
28 oz can crushed tomatoes
1 small can chopped green chiles
1 onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 cup grits, not instant, or hominy
1 1/2 cups of shredded cooked chicken
1 cup frozen corn
1 or 2 cans of black beans, drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon onion powder
salt and pepper to taste

Saute onion and garlic in olive oil until softened. Add chicken broth, green chiles and crushed tomatoes. Add spices, and grits or hominy. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionaly. Add chicken, corn, black beans and stir. Cook for 15 minutes. Garnish with shredded cheese, cilantro and green onions.

We like to eat this with tortilla chips, especially fresh homemade ones!

You just take store bought tortillas and cut them into quarters. Then you fry them in canola oil until crispy. Add salt as soon as you take them out. Delicious!
