This looks awesome. Thanks for posting the link!

My husband absolutely loves soups. I am always searching pinterest for recipes for them. We had homemade Broccoli Cheddar tonight and homemade Cream of Mushroom a few days ago.

I love adding elbow macaroni and ground turkey to tomato soup. Yum!

Just made this yesterday! A small head of cabbage chopped, carrots, onions sauteed, San Marzano whole tomatoes that I squish, and organic chicken broth. Throw it all together after sauteeing the veggies, till everything is softened. Add a little salt, a can of Cannelini beans, Franks' hot sauce and voila!

I love soups - I make them often to get my kids to eat more veggies !

Last nights recipe was :

- I sauteed chopped onion (in 3 tblsp oil)

- combine all other ingredients and simmer 1 hour

6 cups water _more or less depending on how thick u like the soup
1 lrg butternut squash - cleaned,skinned and cut in inch pieces
4 stalks of cellery - chopped (strings taken out)
1 lrg carrot - cleaned and chopped
2 - 3 cups broccoli - I skin the stems and use them as well
1 hot pepper - optional if u like a kick
1 chicken boullion
- 1 tsp all spice
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp clove
- 1/2 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp nutmeg
blk pepper to taste

puree entire soup - put back in pot ( mix in a cup or bowl - 1/2 cup cold water with 1/2 an envelope of powdered non fat milk whisk and add to soup , stir till it starts to boil - Soup is ready

Its all in the broth! The best soup is made by roasting the meat in a roasting pan rather than boiling it in a pot. I'll use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Its incredible. Well that is for chicken. Haven't tried anything else yet. I put lotsa veggies though- anything I can think of. I also like to do bean or lentil soup in the crock pot. Salt, pepper, cumin, garlic, onion and turkey bacon to flavor it. I usually add carrots and tomatoes to the lentils. It never turns out bad.

In the eve,I brown a very small piece of beef,then put in crock pot.Add 3 C water& a couple bay leaves.Lots of S&P ! Keep on high till bedtime,turning on low & let it simmer all night.

In morn,put meat & broth in fridge.You can make soup once most fat is removed from meat & broth. Put in slo cooker along with 2-3 cans of beef broth,canned small dice tomatoes,diced onion,celery & carrots.After a couple hrs,add all the veggies you want. I use cabbage,beans,mixed veggies,2-3 peeled diced turnips.I don't use broccoli,as we don't care for it after long cooking.I add thyme,a small pinch of cinnamon. The longer it cooks,the better it is.Freezes great in zip lock bags or containers.
