My mom always made her own soup when I was growing up and she would put all sorts of yummy combos of veggies & meats. It was not only super healthy (without any preservatives like at the store) but it was also really yummy
I just love your blog. I’ve been keeping track for awhile but I haven’t actually made some recipes until about a week ago and I’m hooked now. Super delicious! I would have to say my absolute favorite soup is potato soup.
I love a chicken squash soup from Taste of Home. It is healthy but loaded with flavor.
I love soup right now my favorite is this cheese totellini and veggie soup I made. We posted it on our blog! Great giveaways thanks!
Lately I’ve been having a craving for Lasagna Soup – a friend of mine served me some leftovers once for lunch and I have loved it ever since.
Potato Cheese – and Butternut Squash soup is a close second! I LOVE soup season!! 🙂
Yeah, I love giveaways! I HEART chicken tortilla soup!!
Hands down my ALL time favorite soup is Potato Cream Cheese Soup from Wildflower Bread Company :]

my favorite soup of all time is miso soup!!! it’s so simple to make and there’s a lot of ways to jazz it up. it’s always good for tummy ache, too.
My favorite has to be yellow squash with corn and cream, my grandma makes it every fall. I just Love it!!
I LOVE a good Vegetable Beef Barley!! Sticks to your guts and is so satisfying ( and actually good for you too!)
I love Sausage and Lentil Soup-I use garlic or ham sausage but could also be made with italian sausage.

What a great giveaway!! I really LOVE your chicken corn chowder, is that what it’s called? w/the cream cheese? I LOVE it!!
My favorite is cream of mushroom. Unfortunately no on at my house likes mushroom. So any creamy potato comes in second.
It’s too difficult to name one favorite kind of soup! I love them all! Especially if they are loaded with vegetables, beans, and pasta!
My favorite soup is Clam Chowder. I love it!
My favorite soup is lentil…I just made it tonight for dinner.
chicken and dumplings!
My favorite would have to be Vegetable Beef, I love the tomato base and all the veggies. Plus who doesn’t love some beef too. My husbands favorite would be clam chowder. He wasn’t too impressed with my recipe, maybe you have a good one?
Many favorites but I’ll go with loaded baked potato and cream of chicken.
Numero Uno…Italian Wedding Soup.
#2 Tomato Basil (La Madeline’s has the best!)
Favorite soup: creamy roasted tomato and basil
I love chicken and wild rice soup. My mom makes a great one with a crazy secret ingredient…Velveeta! I tastes so good and creamy; you would never know it had so much fake cheese in it! I posted the recipe on my blog here: http://luluthebaker.blogspot.com/2008/10/autumn-baby-shower-heaven.html
My fav. is chicken noodle with home made noodles. Theres nothing better than homemade soup and rolls on a cold day.
Bloglines is giving me grief so I just got 10 of your posts in one shot!
Italian Wedding Soup, tied with my grandmother’s homemade turkey rice soup. Both comforting and yummy!
One of my favorite soups is Turkey Quinoa Chili
Here is what I used:
* 99 % extra lean ground turkey
* 1 Darn good chili mix + 7 c. water it calls for
* chili powder
* cumin
* salt and pepper
* 1 can diced tomatoes
* 1 can tomato paste
* 1 can black beans
* 1 c. roasted corn
* 1 c. cooked quinoa
Cook the Darn Good Chili mix as directed, with 1 can tomato paste and water. Then add rest of the ingredients. Also, I cooked the turkey in chili powder and cumin to give the chili extra flavor. Once the chili mix had cooked, I added the rest of the ingredients! It was amazing and I can’t wait to make it again!
You go girl! What a fun contest!
🙂
Paradise bakery’s fire roasted tomato soup! I found the recipe on recipe zaar but it makes a huge batch and I have not yet figured out how to scale it down.
Tortilla Soup!
What fun giveaways! My favorite soup is probably French Onion Soup!
My absolute favorite soup is chicken tortilla soup. i make a mean pot of it!! my 3 best girlfriends get together with me and we all cook it together. i like to add rice, cheese, sour cream and guacamole pieces! OMG..it is so good the next day.
My dh loves a chicken green chile soup at our local sandwich shop. im not sure whats in it but maybe that can give you some inspiration w/ingredients.
