Yummy soup recipes?

Ok - here are few that I got either off of the internet or off of MFP (from other posts) So, I did not create these recipes, but I have tried them

BUFFALO CHICKEN CROCKPOT SOUP!
http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=2122096


Minutes to Prepare: 10
Minutes to Cook: 180
Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients
1 onion, diced, about 1 cup
2 stalks celery, diced
1 medium carrot, diced
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 hot pepper,* deseeded and chopped
1 1/2 cups no salt added diced tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
12 ounces chicken breast, diced
3 cups homemade or low-salt chicken stock
1 tablespoon hot sauce

For garnish:
2 tablespoons blue cheese, crumbled
1 celery stalk, thinly sliced

Directions
Place all the soup ingredients except for the hot sauce in a slow cooker, and stir to combine. Cover and cook on high for 3 hours or low for 6.

Before serving, stir in the hot sauce.
Top each bowl with 1 teaspoon blue cheese and chopped celery.

This soup is "medium" in terms of heat.
For "hot" soup: Choose a hotter pepper, and leave the seeds in the pepper.
For "mild" soup: Stir 1/4 cup Greek yogurt into 1/2 cup of the hot soup, then stir the soup-yogurt mixture into the rest of the soup. (This step prevents the yogurt from curdling.) The yogurt will add about 25 calories and 1.6 grams of fat to each serving--not calculated in this recipe.

Serving Size: Makes 6 cups.

Spicy Beef Vegetable Soup
12 servings

I make this once a week. Leftovers make a great lunch. You can use chicken, turkey or even venison instead of beef. Or you can substitute 2 cans of any bean (cannellini, kidney, garbanzo) for the beef. You can use any pasta sauce (I like garden vegetable). You can also experiment with mild salsa. Try different veggie blends too. You can also use any can tomatoes. Fire roasted, Italian, stewed or just plain diced tomatoes. Delicious and very simple!

1 lb lean ground beef
1 cup chopped onion
27 oz spaghetti sauce
3 1/2 cups water
16 oz. frozen mixed veggies
10 oz. diced tomatoes and green chilies
1 cup sliced celery
1 tsp beef bouillon
1 tsp pepper

To cook in Crockpot: Brown beef and onion. Add to slow cooker with remaining ingredients. Cover and cook on low 8 hrs.

To cook stovetop: Brown beef and onion on medium –high heat. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes.

Best split pea soup ever -- and it's easy easy easy!!!

1 pound dried green split peas
1 medium sweet onion diced finely
3 celery stalks diced finely
2 quarts chicken broth (I use chicken base, 1 TB per 1 quart of water)
1 bay leaf
Ham steaks (pre-cooked), cubed

Add all ingredients except ham steak to crock pot. Cook on high for 4 hours, or on low for 8 hours. Maybe 10 minutes before serving, add ham so it gets up to soup temperature. I get more compliments on this soup. And it couldn't be easier, it takes me about 10 minutes of prep time to cut the onion, celery, and cube the ham. Enjoy!
