What's everyones favorite soup recipes? I love soups, especially in the fall and to take camping. Probably my favorite is chili, brown the burger(sirloin or ground round), onions, dark kidney beans, black beans, northern beans, diced tomatoes, tomato soup, chili powder.

  • My favorite to eat and to make would be Chicken Corn Chowder:

    Ingredients

    2 tablespoons of butter
    1/4 cup chopped onion
    1/4 cup chopped celery
    2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    3 cups 2% reduced-fat milk (I use whole milk however)
    2 cups chopped baked skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 2 breast halves)
    1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels (about 3 ears)
    1 teaspoon chopped fresh or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
    1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    1 (14 3/4-ounce) can cream-style corn

    Preparation

    Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven (or soup pot) over medium heat. Add onion & celery, cook for 3 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently. Add flour; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in milk and remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil; cook until thick (about 5 minutes).

    Especially nice when served with grilled cheese sandwiches and on a rainy, miserable day!

  • Turkey...

    I don't wait for the Thanksgiving carcass. I'll get a couple turkey hindquarters, simmer them into the soup base in the crockpot over night and finish the soup the next day. I usually put a little liquid smoke in my turkey soup just to add a different twist. Then I just empty the fridge of veggies. We like FAT noodles. We have an Asian store here that carries big frozen Udon noodles. I also sprinkle a little cheese on top when serving and French bread for dipping.

    I LOVE SOUP!
