I'm a lazy cook so I really enjoy stuff that takes 3 ingredients or less.
Lazy People's Pumpkin Soup
Steam a pumpkin until it turns soft, and then mash it like mashed potatoes. Add some water if you think the consistency is too thick, and put in a dollop of sour cream, or milk or cream, depending on what you have in your fridge. Season with salt and pepper.
I have no idea if this is healthy in any way, but its good and easy.0 -
Pumpkin soup is my favorite fall soup. However, I love my mom's sancocho0

I love soup period but especially during the winter I make borscht (vegetarian) version which fills you up without blowing up your calories for the day.0

spicy parsnip or butter nut squash or roasted carrot and parsnip...... i could go on.
Mostly i roast some veg in the oven with a dab of olive oil and then blend them either with just hot water or stock, throw in a few herbs or spices or curry powder and bobs your uncle!

I would strongly suggest the New Covent Garden Soup book. Its full of hundreds of soups that are easy to make. Give me a reminder when you come up and I can show you it, as I bought it a while ago. The soups are tasty obviously and it was pretty cheap.0

I made this one for the first time last night for dinner tonight (Recipe says it takes 10 hrs. I don't know that you necessarily need to let it go that long but it definitely tasted better the longer it simmered). Had a little nibble before putting it away and it's yummy!! Just FYI: the broth is a bit more like a vegetable soup base than a traditional bean soup.
The Best Bean and Ham Soup
PREP: 25 mins
COOK: 10 hrs
READY IN: 10 hrs 25 mins
Ingredients
Original recipe makes 12 servings
1 (20 ounce) package 15 bean mixture, soaked overnight (I used a 16 oz bag which I boiled and soaked for an hour instead)
1 ham bone (didn't have a ham bone so I used a couple of pork shanks)
2 1/2 cups cubed ham
1 large onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
5 large carrots, chopped
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, with liquid
1 (12 fluid ounce) can low-sodium vegetable juice (omitted this to cut down on sodium)
3 cups vegetable broth (used 3 cups water and 2 Swanson's Vegetable Flavor Boost packets)
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce (only added 1 TBS)
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard (used 1 TBS Coleman's Dry Mustard instead)
1 tablespoon chili powder (too spicy for the kiddo so I only used a dash)
3 bay leaves
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon dried parsley
3 tablespoons lemon juice
7 cups low fat, low sodium chicken broth (used a 49 oz can = about 6 cups)
1 teaspoon kosher salt (omitted)
Place the soaked beans into a large pot and fill with enough water to cover by about 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then simmer over low for 30 minutes. Drain. Add the ham bone, ham, onion, celery, carrots, tomatoes, vegetable juice, and vegetable broth. Season with Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, chili powder, bay leaves, pepper, parsley and lemon juice. Pour in enough of the chicken broth to cover the ingredients.
Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 8 hours. Add more chicken broth as needed throughout the day. Remove the ham bone and season with salt if needed. Continue to simmer for a couple more hours. Remove bay leaves before serving.
