It's soup weather! Brrrrr!

What you had definitely sounds good.

Hi jerz! How ya been girlfriend? I must admit that I am not much of a soup person. But, when the weather is cold out, I am ready for something hot all the time! I have to admit, as big a cook as I am I have nevermade homemade soup! I buy Progresso and stuff like that, but I am just not a soup maker! I prefer to make a nice homemade pot of beef stew, baked lasagna, nice roast beef dinner! I will do anything to keep that oven on! It's also weather for doing alot of baking! I should have lost the weight that I gained this Summer while I was on vacation in Florida visiting with my Mom! I made a cake for the bf's birthday which was the day before Thanksgiving and he has only had one piece and the cake is almost gone! He told me to leave him one piece for tonight and I said, "Don't worry I'll bake another one"!

If I did not have to feed other people as well, I would just live on hearty soups, mostly by themselves. Our favorite right now is made from butternut squash, and it has ginger and chestnuts in it. You top it with a tablespoon of crumbled blue cheese and a tablespoon of chopped pecans. Yummy. It is so very nutritious it just makes me feel good all over.

We just had tomato soup and grilled cheese a few days ago for lunch. I do enjoy soup when it is cold and although my husband is not a fan of soup, he will eat it for me. I also like vegetable soup and broccoli and cheese soup. I need to find some new recipes and make some new soups.

U got that right, nothing better than a good bowl of homemade soup. The only thing i ever have w/it is cornbread. It fills me up pretty good. I even make it in the summer i like it so much but more in the winter of course.

I love to enjoy fried dishes when the weather is colder. I always like them :)

Soup does sound pretty good. We had grilled cheese and tomato soup not too long ago. I bought ingredients to make homemade broccoli cheese soup too. I haven't made it yet though. I was thinking about making it soon. I love homemade chicken noodle soup. My mom makes it and it is really good. I haven't tried to make it myself yet but I'd like to soon. I got a recipe from a cookbook for it.

I make veggie, pea and potato soups. It was cold enough, but we had a LOT to do today and so didn't make any.

I think anyone would appreciate a warm soup during cold weathers. It's actually a cold morning here in my area, however it's too early to have soup. I usually enjoy clear chicken soup not only during cold weathers but also when I'm sick of the colds!

hijerzgirl oh indeed here in sunny southern ca its been so cold and when we have soup here we g enerally ask for seconds as it is really good. the cook does a great soup but some other foods he is lousy at. I love shrimp bisque too and good old tomoato soup, mushroom soup, corn choweder and oh mylove clam chowder, thats so good. my fa vorite comto is of coure gooey hot grilled cheese sandwic h with thick hot tomato soup .They make a great vegetable soup here too but nobody has ever made clam chowder. theres a place down on Newport Pier called Charlies chili and his chili is great an his clam chowder the greatest. so good almost wo rth a bus trip do wn there for a doll ar just to eat his clam chowder. makes me hungrythinking about it.

I tend to eat soup more in the summer than the winter, because it is quite light on the stomach and I don't like heavy foods during the summer. However in the winter I like warm heavy foods. My favourite soup is chicken and sweetcorn soup, the type that they serve in Chinese restaurants / takeaways. My second favourite is Chicken Noodle, so basically I am a big fan of clear chicken soup :)

Hi jerzgirl, My dear, you just made me hungry. I love soup & chili during the winter because to me they just seem to be what the Dr. order. What I mean is, they take the chill off, plus taste better. I love to have a ham and cheese grilled sandwich and homemade hot coco! Have a wonderful and safe evening! Snow

Hi jerzgirl! Indeed it does sound very wonderful especially during these winter times. I love soups as well. My favorites include mushroom soup (although I haven't got a recipe yet), tomato soup (not tinned), vegetable soup, cream of corn soup and onion soup. My fiancee can cook a really delicious onion soup and tomato soup. He likes to add herbs and spices to enhance the flavor of the soup. We usually love to eat it with toast or french bread. Would love to learn more soup recipes that are easy to prepare and cook though. :)
