Great thread! I'm looking forward to making soup0

I love making and eating homemade soup...my chicken is in the crockpot now...I put it in there overnight for my homemade broth and then use it in a variety of soups. Looking forward to trying some of these recipes, will try to submit one tomorrow. Thanks.
What a great idea!! I love using my crockpot, esp now that I'm working out in the evening, saves me a lot of time and if everyone else is starving they can go ahead and eat.0 -

Curried Carrot Soup..
This is an awesome low cal soup. I add extra curry powder, cumin and minced garlic.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 onion, chopped
1 tablespoon curry powder
2 pounds carrots, chopped
4 cups vegetable broth
2 cups water, or as needed
Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Saute onion until tender and translucent. Stir in the curry powder. Add the chopped carrots, and stir until the carrots are coated. Pour in the vegetable broth, and simmer until the carrots are soft, about 20 minutes.
Transfer the carrots and broth to a blender, and puree until smooth. Pour back into the pot, and thin with water to your preferred consistency.0 -

I love soupe au pistou.
http://www.davidlebovitz.com/2010/07/soupe-au-pistou-french-vegetable-soup-recipe/
The cheat's version of this recipe is just to boil up some frozen vegetables and a can of beans with a stock cube. But it is important to add homemade pistou or pesto. My favourite pesto recipe is Marcella Hazan's:

I make this almost weekly:
1 cup dry lentils, rinsed
1 onion, chopped
2 celery stalks, sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
Any left over veggies you have in the fridge chopped up small
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, or 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
8 cups water or vegetable broth
1/2 cup dry quinoa
1 cup crushed tomatoes
1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
Directions
1Combine lentils, onion, celery, garlic, cumin, and water or broth in a large pot. Bring to a simmer, then cover loosely and cook until lentils are tender, about 50 minutes.
2Stir in quinoa, tomatoes, curry powder, and black pepper. Continue cooking until couscous is tender, about 10 minutes. Add salt to taste.
Optional: Add shredded spinach or kale at the end0 -
Bumping for later. Thanks to all who have posted recipes!0

Sounds like a great recipe similar to what I make and call Minestrone. I love the fact that it has sweet potato in it. Can't wait to try it.0

This is a very healthy and easy soup to make. Dr. Oz's 3 Day Detox has one similar to it that includes Fennel Bulb that tastes just as good.0

So many recipes and so little time. One of my favorite soups is HOT & SOUR Thai soup. Anything goes into this so whatever vegetables you have on hand throw them in some vegetable broth and then season with rice vinegar and crushed red pepper until the soup reaches the desired heat level that you prefer. I also like to give it a dash of soy sauce and fish sauce if I have it on hand. Oyster sauce would make a great addition as well. Don't forget to give it a drizzle of hot red chili pepper oil on top before serving. If you like a thicker soup you can thicken it with either Corn starch or tapioca powder.
I plan on posting some really good Paleo soups in another day or two. Stay Tuned.0 -
The butternut squash sitting on my counter is waiting to be turned into something like that.0
