Carrot, leek, red lentils, fresh or dried coriander. Sweat down the carrot and leek in olive oil or whatever other thing you prefer (Benecol works well), then add the red lentils and coriander, salt and pepper to taste, stock, simmer gently till the lentils are melting, whizz it all up. Enjoy.

Or

Sweat down a leek, add mushrooms (fresh or reconstituted wild from dried, and preferably a bit of both). Add stock, a tad of paprika (unsmoked), your favourite herb. Cook for about 20 minutes. Whizz, enjoy.

On both, add enough additional water after the whizz to make the consistency you like, taste, adjust the salt, bring to required temperature. Serve.

Scotch Broth made the good old traditional way is also a total winner and gives you a little bit extra fibre.

I like to make soup. I don't particularly like eating the same soup for lunch and dinner for an entire week just so it won't go bad. So here are a few store-bought favorites:

* Trader Joe's Sweet Potato Bisque. TJ's actually has a whole line of pureed vegetable soups that are really good, some more spicy than others. The Sweet Potato has more of a, er, sweet flavor.
* Amy's Kitchen soups.
* Wolfgang Puck soups.
* Mrs. Grass's Chicken Noodle. Can't beat the "golden nugget!"
* Campbell's Tomato. This goes best with a grilled cheese sandwich. :)

All of this soup talk is making me hungry!

Does anyone else think soup is improved by lots of hot sauce? I am a fiend for the stuff.


It might make it better...

alas...currently not allowed...and i can see why....anything acidic burns like fire as it is... and i had a painful potato incident with tonight's clam chowder...

I cant be trusted with anything but cream of <> soups...obviously.

Won ton and/or eggdrop, my favorite.

Cream of Broccoli.

Cream of Spinach.

Tomato soup with curry in it.

Matzo ball soup. The only way to make matzo edible, in my opinion.
