    Favorite soup recipes?

    We have to figure out this vegetable situation. I'm thinking soup. Lots and lots of soup. Because I really like soup.

    Please post your favorite recipes here.

    This uses a few vegetables up. I quadruple it to use up all the red pepper, a small red onion and the whole can of beans. It freezes well but is nicest freshly made. If you use whole milk and chicken broth (instead of the water the original called for) you don't need to put the tortilla chips in but they are nice with. Variation in amounts doesn't matter much. It's a Blendtec recipe but any blender would work.

    Tortilla Soup

    This soup is great for a quick, flavorful supper.
    Ingredients

    2 Roma tomatoes, quartered
    12 large carrot
    1 slice red pepper, approximately ⅓ cup
    1/4 avocado
    2 tbsp onion
    1 chunk pepper jack cheese
    2 sprigs fresh cilantro
    1 tsp no-salt herb seasoning
    34 tsp kosher salt
    3/4 tsp garlic powder
    1 can chicken broth with enough milk added to make 2 cups total liquid
    12 cup tortilla chips
    1/4 cup corn
    1/4 cup black beans rinsed and drained

    INSTRUCTIONS

    1. Add all ingredients but tortilla chips, corn and black beans to FourSide or WildSide+ jar in order listed and secure lid.
    2. Select "Soup" or "Hot" or "90" cycle (might want to run cycle twice for desired heat) or blend on a high speed for 90-180 seconds.
    3. Add tortilla chips, corn and black beans, secure lid, and press "Pulse" 2–3 times.

    Panera has a tasty low fat garden vegetable soup with pesto that I tried last summer and really liked. I haven't tried making this recipe but it's supposed to be similar and sometimes these things are more concept than actual recipe.

    There's also gazpacho, this recipe looks enticing

    Two favorites here, vegetable beef and split pea, both of which can be made in large quantities and freeze very well. Usually at the first signs of fall I make both and am set for the winter.

    I was going to say tortilla soup too. We do it in a crockpot. I replaced the canned tomatoes with about 6-8 romas or other kinds. You can use fresh corn. You can also toss in a little cubed zucchini in at the end.

    We do this one as well, it was hard to find a close recipe as the one we use is from Dave's mom on a recipe card. This was close, ours you add a pepper in (they said green, we use red)

    I made this one last night. Hopefully it will take care of a lot of zucchinis. I planted way too many zucchinis. I really like them. Not that much but didn't think they would all take.

    Creamy Zucchini Soup

    3 medium zucchinis
    16 oz chicken broth
    1/2 onion
    2 garlic cloves
    sour cream to taste

    Put everything but the sour cream into a pot and simmer for 20 minutes. Blend until smooth then add sour cream and blend again.

    Made this one yesterday. We both really liked it. I used the remaining Butternut Squash from last fall. Surprised it was still okay to use. I started using Pepperplate to keep track of all my recipes. It’s a free ap and works well for us.

      • 1 tbsp red curry paste
      • 8 pieces fresh ginger, about 1/2” thick

    I need to make that very soon. My butternuts are already coming in. I'll have them in a week.

    Organizing recipes has been so frustrating for me. I'll check out that app.
