Q: soup recipes?
winter is coming! i live alone and like to make a pot of soup on sunday and then reheat it all week. last year i got pretty sick of minestrone and chicken soup all the time, as those are the soups that i’m best at making. anyone have any soup recipes? would prefer broth-based (rather than creamy) soups that don’t require a lot of ingredients (every time i make minestrone i have to go back to the store because i always forget something). thanks!
gee, thanks sid. i’d never heard of a search engine.

A: pea & ham, pumpkin, mashed sweet corn & egg, beef & vege soup

Q: Soup recipes?
Anyone have any good soup recipes?
I’m looking for something fairly simple to make.
Meat or veggie though, i love any kind of soup…

A: put a chicken breast to boil, add an onion, 2-3 pieces of garlic, carrot, parsley root and some other roots you like; boil them together and when the meat is done, take it out and cut into rather small pieces and put it back into the soup. The vegetables can be made in the blender, then put it back in the soup. When it’s ready, add fresh garlic ( squeezed, transformed into a cream ) and cream or yogurt. It’s a Romanian recipe.
Enjoy !

Q: Can I get some soup recipes for my 11 month old son?
My 11 month old loves soup and I need some recipes. Preferably ones low in sodium. Bulk recipes are fine too because I can freeze the leftovers.
No best answer for giving websites where I have to search through hundreds of recipes. I can do that myself already. I come to YA so I don’t have to do that. I want specific recipes that you like and use.
I’m aware of the pregnancy and parenting forum. I posted this question and got no answers.

Q: What are some good soup recipes for someone who can not chew solids?
I had some work done on my mouth and I’m not able to chew anything for the next 7 weeks. What are some good soup recipes for a vegetarian? Like split pea soup and things like that. just links to the recipes would be great. Thank you so much!
I need recipes and I’m looking for things that normal people don’t eat everyday. I’m sick of tomato soup. :P

A: Butternut squash soup is great! Creamy and Rich, most online recipies are great for this, but not the store bought pre-made it is horrible.

You can use vegetable stock instead of chicken, and be sure to add some extra spices to zip it up to your liking because this one come out bland if you don’t. Adding a cream like, sour cream or whole milk helps too, but I don’t know if you favor dairy products being a vegan.

Good luck! Sorry about your mouth!!

Q: What are some good soup recipes I can make using chicken stock?
I have about 3 cups of it in my freezer that needs to get used up…any good soup recipes (besides chicken noodle) that I can use? Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated as well!

Thanks in advance!

Egg Drop Soup

2 cups homemade chicken broth
1/8 tsp white pepper
1/2 tsp soy sauce
1/4 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp corn starch
1 egg
Veggies, optional

Heat broth, pepper, soy sauce and sesame oil until it just begins to boil. Add veggies if desired. (I usually add a Tablespoon or two of frozen corn or peas and a chopped green onion for extra color and texture.) Add cornstarch by mixing with either water or some of the broth to make a thin paste and stirring it into the
soup to thicken. Whisk the egg and using a fork, drizzle over the boiling soup. Reduce heat to keep it warm until ready to serve. This serves 2 people as a side or as an appetizer. It’s not quite enough for a full meal without fudging by adding a little extra broth or water.

All ingredient amounts can be varied to taste. The key ingredient is the sesame oil. I sometimes like to add a little white pepper to the egg before dropping it in the soup. The corn niblets are a tasty addition, but the peas get mushy if cooked too long.

ZUPPA TOSCANA

I think this version tastes just as good as the one Olive Garden uses with much less of the fat. I used turkey sausages to cut down on the fat, and less cream than is usually called for.

4 Links Turkey Sausage (Spicy or Mild)
1 Medium Onion, Finely Diced
3 Strips Of Bacon, Chopped
2 Garlic Cloves, Peeled And Minced
2 Medium Potatoes. Peeled And Cut Into Large Dice
2 to 3 Cups Of Chopped kale
Salt & Pepper To Taste
¼ Cup Heavy Cream
4 Cups Chicken Broth
Parmesan Cheese To Serve

Cook the bacon in a heavy pan until crisp. Remove to another dish, leaving the baco fat in the pan. Add the sausage links, and cook over medium heat until browned well on all sides. Add ½ cup of water, cover, and cook another 10 minutes over medium low heat or until completely cooked. Remove the sausages to a plate, and cook the onions in the same pan until translucent. Add the garlic, and cook another minute or two.

In a large soup or stockpot, add the chicken broth and potatoes. Bring to a boil, and then reduce the heat to medium low. Cut the sausage links into ½ inch sklices, and then add these to the stockpot. Cook for 10 minutes and then add the kale and bacon. Season with salt and pepper, and simmer another 10 minutes.

Remove a little of the potato from the pot, and place it in a bowl. Mash the potato together with the cream, and then add this mixture to the pot, mixing well. Serve hot, offering a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese if desired.

Q: What are some low calorie vegetarian salad and soup recipes?
I need some salad and soup recipes that are less than 350 calories.
Also, the salad must be suitable to be a meal on it’s own.

Any ideas?
I don’t eat any sort of meat – no chicken, no fish, nothing like that.

I eat eggs if that helps.

A: I normally just make a salad with lettuce, tomato, avocado, and whatever other veggies I have around. Then I make a quick vinaigrette with olive oil, vinegar, dijon, garlic, salt and pepper. I also made a really good soup recently. I am not sure how many calories, but it seems pretty low calorie to me.

Yield

6 to 8 servings

Ingredients

* 4 tablespoons olive oil
* 2 cups chopped leeks, white part only (from approximately 3 medium leeks)
* 2 tablespoons finely minced garlic
* Kosher salt
* 2 cups carrots, peeled and chopped into rounds (approximately 2 medium)
* 2 cups peeled and diced potatoes
* 2 cups fresh green beans, broken or cut into 3/4-inch pieces
* 2 quarts chicken or vegetable broth

* 1 to 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Directions

Heat the olive oil in large, heavy-bottomed stockpot over medium-low heat. Once hot, add the leeks, garlic, and a pinch of salt and sweat until they begin to soften, approximately 7 to 8 minutes.

Q: What is good free website that has recipes for low fat soup?
I’m trying to lose some weight. I would like to find some low-fat soup recipes. I would like a website that has some listed (more than a 2 or 3) :) -Thanks

A: You can find just about any recipe you can imagine on Allrecipes.com……. this site will also gilve you listings from other recipe web sites.

Q: What can I use to replace heavy cream in soup recipes?
I’ve been looking at soup recipes and so many of them call for heavy cream. I am trying to eat more healthfully, but can’t find an appropriate substitute for the cream–my Web searches have only turned up what NOT to use (milk). Any hints? Thanks!

A: You’ve gotten a lot of good answers (except the “just don’t eat cream-of soups” one).

Just because a recipe calls for cream doesn’t mean it has to be there! I use 2% milk for most of my cream-of soups and they taste great (cream of cauliflower, broccoli, etc). Yes, a soup will taste fattier if more fat is used (from cream or oil/roux/etc), but you can get by with a lot less than you might expect and have it still taste very good.

If you just want a “thick” soup (without any milk cooked in with it), as mentioned, you can just puree some or all of the solid contents of the soup with a wand blender or regular blender, or you can thicken it with a bit of “mashed” potatoes (even instant potatoes), cornstarch, or wheat flour, etc.

I’ll also often add a bit of sour cream or yogurt to the soup in each bowl which will also thicken it a bit and give a little creamier/milkier feel and taste when necessary–but that is a milk product; just not a lot of fat per bowl of soup.

Q: What are some different soup recipes that I can try?
I’m in the mood to cook and I want to try something different. I have a recipe for chicken tortilla soup and potato soup that I might try.

What are your favorite soup recipes? Something different, inexpensive, and quick?

A: I personally love Gumbo http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Big-Charlies-Gumbo/Detail.aspx i don’t know our recipe so follow that one, and I have a recipe for potato bacon and cheddar soup

Potato, Bacon and Cheddar Soup
Serves 4 as a starter, 2-3 as a main
5 slices of bacon, cut into strips
2/3 cup onion, fine dice
2 cloves garlic, fine dice
4 tbsp butter
3/4 cup flour(approx.)
2 cups chicken stock
2 cups 2% milk
2 cups potatoes, medium-small cubes
1 cup shredded old white cheddar
pinch each of cloves and nutmeg
Sautee bacon and onions until bacon has let off most of it’s fat into the pan and onions are translucent; add butter. Add garlic and sweat for 30 sec. Stir in flour to make a roux. Mixture should pull away from the pan. Slowly add chicken stock, stirring constantly. Once encorporated, stir in milk and add potatoes. Let simmer on medium-low for an hour, or until the potatoes are cooked through but are still pleasant to the bite. You will have to get up and stir this soup every so often as the roux DOES like to stick to the bottom of the pot, but that’s easy enough to fix by aggressive scraping with the spoon. Once the potatoes are cooked, check your seasoning and add cloves, nutmeg and pepper as needed. You probably won’t need to add any salt as the bacon will fix that for you but go nuts if you like to. I’m no one’s doctor. Add cheese and stir until melted.
Serve with crusty bread, soft snow and a warm pair of wool socks while pretending the world does not exist.

enjoy!
