I am not good at make soap and not often drink it. I know soap is a healthy food. So I learn from my friend. She can make many kinds of soup. I can not believe she can spend 2, 3 or whole afternoon making soap. I can not learn that kind of soup. And she taught me simple soup, such as herring soup, vegetable soup, chicken and mushrooms soup-I like this soup. My friend told me I should eat soup frequently. They can offer more nutrition and are easy to be absorbed. I do not know more about the nutrition which they include, but I like the taste. Do you like to have soup? Can you make soup?

I like soup very much. I don't make it very often because I consider it a lot of work. Like boil a bone to make broth, then prepare vegetables, then meat, etc. If I had a faster way to make it, I would like it. But bouillion cubes and things have too much sodium/salt and I can't have very much of that. Even the stuff in cans that says less sodium, it's often not less enough for me.

Hi,writersedge, yes, it need more time to make it. Some of them should be boiled for a long time. If you have more time you can make it. If we do not have more time we can eat simple soup. Good luck!

I can only make carrot and tomoto soups, since childhood I am a soup freak, whenever meat or chicken is brought at home first thing they do is extract soup and give me a bowl before food. When It rains I buy readymade soup powders like chicken and baby corn. Soups are healthy and tasty, and easily digestable even by oldones and childrens.

I like to have soup, before having a good lunch. We usually buy the Maggi instant variety of soups, which are available in plenty in different flavors. Making instant soup is quiet easy, you just have to boil it with water and add the flavors given with the soup packet, and voila, soup is ready.

I love soup and I love to make it! I made a pot of corn and potato chowder a couple of days ago and it's so good. I love to try all different kinds of soup and one of my favorites is clam chowder. One of my favorites to make is chicken/noodle/vegetable soup. I start totally from scratch with fresh chicken that I boil until tender, then I take the meat off the bones and use the broth I cooked it in to finish the soup...after adding all different kinds of vegetables and seasonings, the chicken and then I add the noodles when it's almost done.

Hi kevinll, soup is very nutrious depending on what you put into it. A simple vegetable soup can be prepared very easily and is full of goodness, simply chop the vegetable of your choice, sweat in a little oil, then add water and simmer. You can add whatever you like as flavour but I always start with an onion base.

Hello kevinll me too like to have some soup as refreshments, its good for our health and our wellbeing feelings.I do prepare soup sometimes at home, but its less attractive, no colour added in it.Noramlly whenvever am feeling sick or tired used to have some soup, it refreshes me and provides me some energy to carry on with my work.Soup is easy to preapare as well as good to eat, even as an short meal its an good food.Even if i don't have time to prepare it would buy some soup from the chinese restaurants.Soup are all good in both veggie and chicken style.Thinking of trying it in red meat style, Happy mylotting.

I like it and I can make it. But to save time, I just get it in the canned version, and sometimes in dried version. Mushroom, chicken (all types), ministrone, onion, vegetable--I like just about all. In fact, I cannot think of a soup I have not liked--I mean type of soup. There's been a few good soups that I have come across that were ruined by the person cooking it.

I like soup yet I do not make them. Are all soup healthy? I beg to differ. Soup is healthy only if it is prepared in a healthy way. Most soup are oily and contain too much unnecessary sodium and sugar. In my opinion, any soup that is healthy does not taste nice.

I make a lot of soup, but I make it the way I want. I use a lot of veggies, sometimes I use meat and at others times I do not. I have made deer soup in the last week. It is very good. I fix cabbage about every 2 weeks, it is good for cleaning your body out, and taking fluid out of your system. Have a great New Year.

When I make soup, it is usually ham and lentil soup.It is very easy to make.The ingredients are a ham shank, lentils, split peas, barley,an onion,carrot and turnip.I put the lot in my slow cooker and just leave it.It takes maybe about 5 or 6 hours to make and my husband and son about 10 minutes to eat it!
