Omg I’m definitely craving soups! I like to stick with chicken and corn as its filling and hearty! I can eat it when I have a cold or just when I’m hungry with some crack pepper!
my favourite will always be a good roast pumpkin soup, with some sour cream and a sprinkle of chives.. yum!
Oh man, I love these soups but they are so expensive!! I love that they have no artificial colours or flavours and have tried out all their flavours. The moroccan pumpkin with chickpeas is my favourite from them. My favourite soup would be laksa!! so comforting!
My very own roasted pumpkin and nutmeg soup
I cannot go past Ribollita the Italian veg soup with Cavolo Nero, cannellini beans and lots of vegetables and herbs. I make it every winter and it scores me lots of brownie points. Was a big favourite when I used to give cooking classes.Ciao Roz
With our super chilly weather, there is no wonder that soups are being craved
La Zuppa soup sounds delicious and all vegetarian? My hero
This prize pack is very generous my friend – thank you
My favourite soup to warm me up is a simple, no cream vegetable pasta soup which my mum makes with adding maggie noodles/small pasta, vegetable stock, tons of veggies and spices before boiling it all together to become a fragrant broth style soup – add in some cheese crackers and you have my favourite winter meal
Cheers
Choc Chip Uru
Yum! You can’t go past traditional pumpkin. I love it
It would be handy to have a few of these in the pantry. My favourite soup is minestrone because I like soups with a bit of texture. xx
There is nothing better than a big bowl of spring before soup. Yummy!
My mums homemade bacon, vegetable and lentil soup with fresh crusty bread and a selection of cheeses. It gets me every time and was always a favourite after a brisk winter walk in the countryside back home. So good.
I always think of the soup my mother made. It was full of vegetables, barley, soup mix and gravy beef. If only I could have it again!
I just love soups but my daughter won’t eat them. As she’s 30 I can hardly force her ! My favourite soup is hard to choose but old fashioned pea and ham soup, pumpkin and minestrone are favourties.
Hmmmm so many yummy soups to choose from. For me it’s a tie between pea and ham. And pumpkin. Mmmmm might have to go and make some now
Mum’s homemade pea & ham soup. Never tire of it.
I love a pumpkin soup with a twist.. ginger is especially good to give it a kick & a little cumin too.
Today Im making morrocan lamb & couscous soup.
I’m going through a BIG vegetarian moment right now so these soups are perfect and guilt free. I hate having to choose just one, but.. Spinach & Chickpea. It’s different and tastes amazing once this pepper addict has freshly cracked some over the top. YUM!
I can’t go past my mum’s pea and ham soup
My Spiced Vegetable soup- needs just a potato, carrots and onions (always to hand!), couple of cupboard spices, and it’s ready by the time I’ve got the slow combustion fire going!
Homemade Spicy Thai Pumpkin Soup, made using coconut cream served with a swirl of Greek yoghurt and crusty bread!
I make a mean roasted pumpkin, (butternut, of course!)garlic and bacon soup, but my Mum’s Pea and Ham would have to be my all time favourite. Last time she flew interstate to visit me she brought me some frozen in an ice cream container!
I’ll have to check out these S&P grinders – my battery operated ones have just given up the ghost!
I love these soups especially as they are gluten free AND delicious. I usually keep one in the pantry for a quick lunch. The Moroccan pumpkin with chickpeas is one of my favs closely followed by Minestrone. Soup is seriously overlooked as a meal and something I plan to change in our house this winter. They are a budget conscious meal and very satisfying.
Home made warming soup is a family favourite. Potato, leek with bacon is my men’s delight, especially with chunks of bread for dipping.
Thai chicken tom-kha soup is amazing… I like to mix it with some nice freshly cooked basmati or jasmin rice – it makes an amazing meal. Flavoursome, with a touch of heat, tender chicken thigh pieces, loads of mushrooms, aromatic Thai spices… hmmm. HEAVEN.
My favourite soup to warm up with is my mums beef and veg soup. Packed with so many veg and flavours its an absolute family favourite
It’s COLD today! It’s not going to get over 20. I have shoes on and I’m in the house.
To warm us up I’m making my favorite Curried Sweet Potato and Pumpkin Soup.
Chicken and Sweet Corn Soup – millions of Chinese just can’t be wrong! It’s SO yum!!
Lots of soups, but my favorite at the moment is Cauliflower with potatoes,cream and cheese.
I love a homemade cauliflower and leek soup ! Delish !
my latest favourite is sweet potato – rich and hearty – with just a touch of lemon
You can’t beat a roast vegetable soup with just a hint a chilli. Warms you up on the coldest days.
my fav is homemade minestrone soup- delicious, warming and zuppa!!
I just resurrected a family recipe for Greek Avogolemeno soup.It is fabulous and is known as the Greek penicillin soup to our family.Look for a recipe that separates out the egg whites from yolks. There are many simpler recipes but just not as good
I’m not clear whether you mean which soup from the La Zuppa soups range or my other favourite
The Moroccan Pumpkin and Chickpea soup sounds like it would be be my favourite from La Zuppa and warm me to the core.
Aside from La zuppa soups, my favourite soup is (vegetarian) pea soup. This reminds me of my Father’s stories’ as a boy of stealing a big pot of freshly cooked pea soup that his Mother had made because he loved it so much and wanted it all to himself.
Traditional Greek soup uses a pasta that I don’t remember. Here in the states we use orzo or rice but would like to ask if you know what the traditional pasta is that I remember from my grandmother
prawn and pork wonton noodle soup
Greek lemon rice soup – reminds me of my childhood and warmth!
Mums pea and ham soup – tastyyyyyyyyy!!!
Trahana – it’s a Cypriot wheat and milk soup – it is served with Haloumi and there is nothing like it!
Can’t go past mum’s pumpkin soup!
My mum used to make a lovely lamb and barley soup that was so thick you could carved it! Definitely stick-to-your-ribs for winter warmth
Pumpkin gets the vote from me, too. Every time I make it I’m amazed that such simple ingredients can produce such comforting silky warmth.
My Mum’s pea and ham soup! Yummy.
Definitely my 30plus soup. It’s a Moroccan spiced soup with 30 plus ingredients.
I make it in a massive 20 litre pot and fill my deep freezer with wonderfully delicious and healthy ready-to-heat meals. Sometimes I will add a bit of cream or goats cheese and other times a few slices of fried chorizo … so delicious! 
I’ve also used it as a base for Moroccan baked eggs… which I am just going to have to have for brekkie this morning!
Mulligatawnie will always warm the cockles of your heart especially if your married to a Scotsman – this is a stand your spoon up rich and delicious favorite of mine. I also love zucchini and parmesan which I shared with 10 friends during the week! Always lovely to gather the girls and natter.
I’d have to say my favourite would be roasted pumpkin soup with a dash of Tabasco…lovely and warming on a cold day….Second favourite would be zucchini…
I love my roasted tomato soup..chopped mint as garish and sour dough bread croutons! This soup really warms my soul!
All vegetarian soups, yet in the photo it is chicken soup? lol
My favourite soup is one which my best friend and I make together all the time and reminds me of winter.. curling up with a hot bowl of soup with crusty bread – ultimate comfort!
The soup is carrot and potato (blended) with a lovely kick of Mussaman curry paste and coriander. Better than it sounds!
It woukd have to be your crab and butternut squash soup,I could eat the whole pot! It’s delicious and warming for cold weather and I love crab (I’ve been known to put extra crab meat!)yet it is healthy. Thanks Lorraine.
I am not sure of my favourite soup because I love so many – it is a toss up between split pea and pumpkin.
You say that La Zuppa soups are all vegetarian but they aren’t – I know because I love taking them to work but accidentally bought the spring vegetable one which had chicken stock so I gave it to a colleague who didn’t want to go out for lunch yesterday because the weather was so bad – I was quite pleased to find a good home for it
My favourite soup for a cold winter day would have to be Pho. Even more warming when a big pot is made a shared with the extended family. With 24 people and the aroma of Pho throughout the house it is hard to still feel cold.
Without doubt my favourite winter warmer is Laksa, whether it be seafood or chicken really doesn’t matter as long as it is loaded with chilli and garlic to chase away all those winter ills
I like chunky soups that I can chew. Anything that’s more like stew than soup is a winner.
Spicy pumpkin soup keeps the belly and heart way whilst warding away the germs at this time of year….
MY CHEF FRIEND’S CREAMY ROASTED ZUCCHINI AND POTATO SOUP WITH GARLIC FLAVOURED CROUTONS IS MY FAVOURITE.
Nothing better than a Pumpkin Soup with a touch of cream.
Having spent half of this freezing morning roasting chicken pieces and vegetables for, I hope, a very moreish chicken soup for lunch I feel I could walk on my knees all the way to Sydney to beg, borrow or steal one of these wonderful packs
! [Birthday present 
?]. The appreciation level would be sky high!! [Huh, my pepper mill also has gone on strike!]. My favourite soup: many, and the pot in the kitchsn will protest, but as far as soulfood goes, a big bowl of minestrone or one of its cousins!!
My sisters simple chicken and Vegie soup is a winner….xo
I love soup at this time of year too. I have a creamy chicken & rice soup that is very good. However my favourite soup is this baked beetroot & apple.
http://adeliciousyear.blogspot.com.au/2010/07/july-2006.html
Love La Zupa! My new favourite soup is a morrocan harira soup my housemate made for me, it’s a delicious combo of lamb shanks, tomato and chickpeas!
I love that La Zupa’s soups are just like homemade but conveniently packaged in single serves so I don’t have the problem of making a big pot of one flavour and then being stuck eating it for a week! P.S my housemate is moving out with the salt and pepper mills so these ones would really come in handy!
It is definitely coming into soup weather…it’s freezing down here! I love most soups but all time favourite would have to be split pea and ham
I thought I had things sorted until I was introduced to a friends Ham hock & pea soup. They smoked the ham themselves….
Happiness!
I love pea and ham soup to warm me up.
Great prize Lorraine, the Peugeot line of grinders is the bomb! Plus having La Zuppa ready to go soups when you have had one of those days, is simply a bonus!
There are so many great soup recipes but I don’t think you can go past a hearty Pasta e Fagioli (Pasta & Mixed Bean Soup). It’s healthy, filling, comforting and will keep away these chilly days & nights. Serve it with a sprinkling of your best Parmigiano and mop up with slices of Ciabatta
bread! Mmmm, think I’ll make some for tonight’s dinner.
It has to be french onion soup all the way – just making it warms you up!
My mother’s pumpkin soup. More butter, garlic and sour cream than pumpkin.
Back-up plan: anything with a loooot of pasta/noodles.
I’m currently nursing a sore throat, so my favourite soup at the moment is carrot and ginger soup. Mmmmmm…
When I first tried (minestrone) I thought delicious, authentic home made – just like mine (from my mum of course). And then I bought the others which all proved genuine, hearty and wholesome with no artificial additives – free of colours, thickeners and preservatives. So fat free – 99% – WOW. Teacher Take to school, Microwave magic, S & P, Luscious Lunch with home made bread. Very jealous teacher workmates!
Good old tomato soup. I even love the ones from a can.
I’ve just got a small pot of chicken and veggie soup warming on the stove as we speak! Can’t wait to devour it! Best thing for lunches in winter time! Especially when you’ve been out in the cold all morning…warms you to the bone!
My favorite soup to warm my heart has to be my Mrs’ Tom Yum soup. She has been experimenting with the recipes since our last honeymoon to Thailand, mixing things up a bit to see what works. The soup has a great explosion of flavors with the freshest ingredients – chicken stock, tom yum paste, garlic, lemon grass, kaffir lime leaves, chicken breast fillets, fresh mushrooms, fish sauce, lime juice, sliced green chillis, fresh coriander and basil (YUM!), simmering together to create a tasty and spicy soup perfect for any season and occasion. There’s nothing that feels like having delicious and spicy Tom Yum soup served with warm rice or bread on a cold winter day, just the two of us or with our extended family, savoring the flavor, freshness and warmth, and sweating it out together! This La Zuppa & Peugeot Mill Sets would be perfect for our winter dining experience!
All vegetarian soups? Score! I was in the supermarket the other day and had to put so many soups back because they were made on chicken stock
Soup in the winter is the best…and so easy to make too! My favourite warmer at the moment is a new roasted tomato and basil I made…so delicious with parmesan toast!
Home made carrot soup with a tiny bit of dill and plenty of black pepper. Yummo. And for some reason very filling, good excuse to have some real piggy next day, need those kilo joules this time of year
I love a good minestrone, filled with vegetable goodness and carbs!
Definitely a good, hearty chicken and corn soup – and made by mum if possible! Mmmmm yummo
My favorite soup to warm up is minestrone with peccorino-romano cheese sprinkled on it.
♥♥♥
Sue
Spring vegetable & whole rice, for a spring in your step!
It would have to be pumpkin soup, my mum’s recipe with tomatoes and cumin in it.
Does pho (Vietnamese noodle soup) count? Whenever it’s cold, I love grabbing a hot bowl of pho. The beef broth (after simmering for hours) is always so flavorful and warming. Pair that with rice noodles and different cuts of beef and I’m in a very happy place.
You can’t beat a SPICY TOMATO SOUP on a cold Winter’s Day. Add in some crusty bread and it’s pure manna from HEAVEN.
There is nothing quite as good as a pea and ham soup bubbling away on the stove all afternoon. The smell the house gets is just divine. I did that last Sunday and I suspect we will do it many more times before winter is finished!
Pea and Ham! Made with bacon bones for flavor and a hock for meat to stir through.
Pea and ham… all the way. Homemade with real bacon bones and ham hock, and served with fresh crusty bread!!
Scotch Broth, kind of like beef and barley but with lamb.
I am not participating in the giveaway. I am just glad I am able to comment here again. I had some problem commenting on your blog for a few days. I also couldn’t get to your blog from your comment on my blog, it took me to nowhere. It was very odd. I hope whatever is was doesn’t happen again and I can enjoy my visits to your blog…:) Have a great weekend!
Pumpkin!
Chicken noodle soup. With heaps of pieces of chicken, I use the thigh, asian thin egg noodles, onion, garlic (good for this time of year) and chicken stock with a dash or two of sesame oil (I’m heavy handed with this, I love it)and soy sauce. It’s easy, delicious and the whole family eats it, no matter what the age.
Homemade Pea and Ham is hearty and feels like a real meal. The ham hock adds a depth of flavour the compliments the cooked split peas beautifully. As a child I hated this soup, but as an adult its my favourite.
A nice cauliflower and bacon soup with a side of buttered sourdough.. Delicious and hearty!
My green lentil and green pea soup/potage. Oooh, I want some now! Well, not now, because it’s my birthday and that would be a stupid birthday dinner, but tomorrow
I love to make creamy pumpkin and sweet potato soup. Even my partner – who doesn’t like soup, loves this one and even goes back for seconds!
Served with homemade crusty bread and butter, it’s a winner every time!!
im making it now pea and ham and heaps of veggies ,this will warm the cockles of my heart xxx
My favourite to make is my German grandmothers chicken noodle soup – it uses whatever vegetables happen to be in the fridge and has no strict ingredients except chicken and noodles.
This is the coolest post of the day!
Just discovered curried pumpkin soup – delicious. Curled up on the sofa, crusty bread, soup and a classic black & white movie – my perfect rainy Sunday afternoon.
I love potato and leek soup in the winter months with lots of crusty fresh bread to dip. If I’m feeling naughty I’ll put a swirl of cream in the middle! However, I am a big soup fan and will eat almost any flavour and if time permits I love to make my own. Mmmm, gotta go now my stomach is rumbling and craving for soup for some strange reason!
Curried Pumpkin – think warming & hot in every sense. Perfect for a Qld day when the mercury drops below 20c!
Give me a bowl of pumpkin soup any time any day and I will be happy.
Oh soup! Love it in all forms, but with the coming winter, I love a nice chicken and vege soup.
Chicken and Sweet Corn soup with ginger and coriander.
corn chowder I grow my own corn and freeze it but first i grate it makes the best chowder
we’re having ham and ‘soup mix’ and vegetable for dinner tonight. I’m not sure this or pea and ham is my fav but I forgot to buy the peas. Would love the pepper mill-my 39 year old wedding present is getting a little worn.
I always make minestrone and potato,leek and bacon many times in winter, I like to have it with home made crusty sour dough bread straight out of the oven , with lashings of butter, even my kids though none live at home now make a point of asking if I’m making one of them next time the come to visit i will go out of my way to do i just for them ,
Ohhh yay!!! I’ve love to win one of these sets
Thanks Lorraine hope you’re having a lovely day!
Soup is the best thing ever in winter
My fave is good ol’ chicken soup for staving off winter colds.
My favourite soup has to be left over roast vegie soup. I don’t have it often because usually ther are no roast vegies left. It dosen’t matter whether it’s just left over potato or pumpkin or a bit of everything just put vegies in saucepan with some dried onion and some vegie stock and bring to the boil, simmer and either blitz or serve thick and chunky YumYUm.
P.S.Had one last week made with haiwain sweet potato only thing that was off putting was the slight purple tinge to the soup
Cream of bacon and parsnip soup… sooo good! Just has chicken stock, bacon, onion, parsnip and cream in it. Mega yum!
The Greek chicken soup Avgolemono.
A whole chicken is boiled to make a stock of chickeny goodness, in which short grain rice, shredded chicken and lots of lemon juice whipped in eggs is added, to make this creamy soup the perfect remedy to the dreaded flu or cold nights.
A good, thick, chunky soup is always my preference. I love my mum’s bacon bone soups, but I make a delicious and super versatile chilli, tomato, vegetable & pumpkin soup which I always have on hand to put on steak, eggs, or just on its own.
Definitely a laksa. I love the spicy kick to warm me up!
I love a good minestrone soup on a cold day!
Tomato soup with nice crusty bread sipped from a bowl or in a mug it always tastes delicious.
Chicken& corn- my mouth is watering now!
I find nothing more comforting then creamy butternut pumpkin soup
Mmmm winter is perfect for homemade pumpkin soup with lots of freshly ground pepper, a dash of cream and delish turkish bread to dip with:) Just the thought makes me happy:):):)
My favourite homemade soup is chicken brodo made with pumpkin, zucchini, celery, tomato, carrot and corn.
Home made chicken and vegetable soup with ginger, garlic and chilli. A great winter warmer and super tasty as well
Pumpkin, or a meaty pea and ham are my winter favourites… now I’m hungry for them!
mine is a veggie soup with a tomatoe base and chicken stock. difference from other veggies soups is the texture. i grate all the veg in (except onions still chop) makes it a great healthy slider food especially as i am a lap band recipient.
Mmmm… Kumura and coconut cream soup with a pinch of chilli for me.
Fills the tummy with sweet, warm spiciness!
Had Ribbolita soup for the first time last October in Tuscany – such hearty, satisfying soul food, using delicious veg and chunks of day old bread to soak up the stock – unbeatable!
The soup most enjoyed by me at the moment is pea and ham
I love soup : D especially a lovely and warm spicy morrocan lentil soup! Yum!
It’s got to be beetroot soup with a dollop of horseradish cream!
Tom Kha Gai is a great
Thai soup to warm you up. The coconut cream in it makes it feel more like a warming, wintery soup. I used to get the chefs to make it for me when I used to go straight to work from the footy in the middle of winter.
My favourite is my garden soup. I walk outside, check what I have and then create. Sometimes it is pumpkin, garlic and coriander and next time it might be tomato and basil. Always yummy and always fresh!
I’d have to say my favourite and one that I’ve made 3 times so far this fall is Chicken Soup with Dumplings. My Dad used to make a large pot of it every winter back in Canada for my sisters and I, it was always a race to see who could get the most dumplings
I also have two other soups that I love to make, Split Pea Soup with Ham and Beef and Barley Soup. Though when I make soups I tend to go really heavy on the veggies, I’ve even added chopped apple and pears to the soups I’ve mentioned.
When it’s blistering cold outside nothing beats a steaming hot bowl of seafood chowder and a crusty slice of fresh buttered bread
My hubby always wants Chicken Vegetable & noodles but Iam happy with the Diet Cabbage Soup.
I like pumpkin soup, with pumpkin, potatoes, onions, pasley, cooked on the stove and pureed then when serving, add a dash of cream/milk and ground pepper.
I love to make chicken, lemon and pasta soup with cracked black pepper (of course)…however I currently have no pepper grinder and I am a huge fan of Peugeot! I love them so.
I also make a really nommy lentil and vegetable soup, seasoned with cumin, coriander and pepper – it is savoury, soothing and warming without tasting offensively nutritious!
A soup I tried recently and would love to try my hand at was a roasted garlic, potato and lemon soup made with home-made vegetable stock – seriously more-ish. Even my four-year-old scooped it all up and asked for more.
But the soup I make the most often is chicken and vegetable with either pasta or pearl barley – when my four-year-old asks for ‘normal soup’, that’s what he means!
I think my favourite would have to be tom yum soup, but really, I like all soups whether it’s pumpkin, tomato, chicken & corn, or my mum’s delicious potato/tomato/pork ribs soup, they’re all so warm and comforting…I really need a soup right now, the Melbourne weather’s killing me.
Vegetable soup …. but not just any vegetable soup, but my Mum’s! It is the bomb-diggidy!
Growing up, my Mum never really cooked me a good, ‘proper’ dinner. It was all frozen foods and takeaways, hence why I became the household cook at 8!
However, what I do remember is Mum’s pumpkin soup, which I still get her to make for me to today when I need instant comfort. I used to relish the days she said we were having it for dinner!
Not too long ago, I asked her what was actually in it, and all it is is a butternut squash, a potato, and some vegetable stock whizzed together, and then we always dolloped sour cream and sprinkled curry powder on top. Who knew it was that simple!?!
A heart fish soup with the works from the local Japanese restaurant.
My favourite warm me up and fill me up soup is minestrone. Love the tomato flavours and the pasta. YUM!
Two soups made in our house today, pumpkin and for the non pumpkin lover broad bean and chorizo. But a house favourite soup is Roman bean soup.
The “Creamy Butternut Pumpkin and Crab” soup I learned how to make on NQN of course!
(Although my granny’s “Dog Bone Soup” comes in a close second)
My favourite soup is good old fashioned pumpkin soup. It is absolutely delicious and filling, warms me up from the inside!
My family and I love Minestrone! I make it once a fortnight as it’s packed full of veggies and I also use all the veggies in my fridge or pantry that are a little old and dodgy, as well as a can of cannelini beans, 4 rashers of bacon or pancetta, 1/2 cup of risoni, a can of diced tomatoes. Yummo! xx
My favorite is a minestrone soup I make (thanks to Jamie Oliver) with some Italian pork sausage meat for added flavor
My favorite soup is a chinese clear soup my aunt makes when we visit during chinese new year. It is pig stomach’s soup with spareribs and white pepper. The spice from the white pepper eliminates any odour from the chewy pig’s stomach which has to be washed very thoroughly.
It’s definitely soup weather now. I’m a chicken and veggie soupmknd of girl. If there are noodles too then that’s a bonus!
Creamy Pumpkin Soup, made the old fashion way. Just delightful.
My favourite is pumpkin soup with a sprinkle of Moroccan spice. It gives it a nice little kick and warms me up
Nothing beats when I have a cold and mum brings over a pot of Jewish Penicilan!! That is her brilliant chicken soup! Even better if she’s made some matzo balls for it. Yumm
Pea and Ham Soup.
Warming, filling and healthy!
My favourite would be chunky vegetable soup . Home made, full of goodness & finished of with some Parmasan.
My favourite soup is the Italian version of cream of mushroom soup – thick, hearty, creamy and very yummy!!
My husband homemade vegetable soup
Classic with a twist, I love my mums recipe for pumpkin soup, which includes bacon and tinned tomatoes, all slow cooked and then blitzed and topped with sour cream, chives and bacon crumbs. Yum!
My grandmothers Pea and Ham soup. Yumm!
I absolutely love jerusalem artichoke soup or veloute, sooo creamy, sweet and nutty all in one, the best.
Beef and Barley soup is my fave – so filling and hearty for those cold winter evenings!
My favourite lately has been to just grab whatever root vegies I have on hand, chop them up, throw them in the slow cooker with some vegie stock, maybe some seasoning, maybe some spice and let it rock! Sometimes it gets blended and sometimes it just gets mashed a little so there’s still chunks … either way it’s warm and delicious and just right for this time of year.
I love my family’s chicken and rice soup, it’s very similar to congi but not mushy and uses only chicken (on the bone), rice, crushed vermicelli, onion and salt and pepper. The chicken is boiled first with a piece of cassia bark (or cinammon if not available) and this creates the delicious base for the soup.
This is the family’s antibiotic during winter.
This time of the year, my freezer is chock a block with soups – so convenient to to take to work. My favourite at the moment is pea and ham soup with the ham coming courtesy from our leftover christmas ham bone which I have had frozen since December..yum!
Creamy Chicken and Mushroom is a great winter warmer!
Cauliflower and Gorgonzola with lots of parsley – creamy and very tasty.
At the moment I’m into Chickpea Soup, tomato based, sometimes with Chorizo for a bit of extra punch. Found out the hard way, (after eating the soup everyday for lunch for a few days in a row) that chickpeas cause flatulence!!
My favourite is a mild curried pumpkin soup with potato,leek, and chicken. in the last 5 mins of cooking (2 ltrs) add 1/2 cup of freshly squeezed orange juice and top with dollop of sour cream as you serve,yum.
I make lots of delicious home made soups that my family devour no sooner than they’re made, but for me my favourite soup to warm me up is Campbells tinned cream of chicken soup, it’s a life long love for me!
My Mum makes this amazing Pumpkin and chilli soup. It warms you in more ways than one, and is more delicious than mere words can do it justice.
Good old fashioned chicken soup, just like Nan used to make in the pressure cooker. Great when you’re cold, even better when you have a cold.
Tantanmen from Ichiban Boshi is my winter warmer: chilli and pork mince and noodles.
I make a version of Chicken Minestrone that leaves them lying in the isles. NO ONE, but no one doesn’t like it. Even when I make a vege only version it still goes down a treat. You can put so much into it. Just stary with frying the onion garlic and hard vegetables and the rest just takes care of itself! The La Zuppa sounds great but it is expensive and you can make your own using fresh veges and then freeze it. So would love to try it!
one of my favorites is butternut squash with chipotle chillies, Polish sorrel soup with boiled egg or Polish cucumber soup.
yumm!
I love pea and ham soup, I love filling a crusty bread roll with the ham and dipping it in the soup.
Homemade Chicken & Vegie soup-easy to make and you can feed an army with a big pot….ROSELLA TOMATO SOUP with a cheese toastie…YUM TO BOTH
I absolutely love my mum’s pea and ham soup. She always made it when we were sick as kids to make us feel better and on really cold days, would pack us a thermos of soup for lunch!
Oh as a Scot raised on soup I love a good soup. I have lots of favourites depending on thw season but I think my favorite is either cock-a-Leekie or asparagus and new potato chowder.
Yum..got me in a soup making mood..
A soup I make weekly throughout winter is my mainstay. My wife cooks the rest of the week so I love to make this for our family. It is a Corn and Kumara Chowder.
Firstly, saute a finely diced onion in butter and add 4 rashers of shredded smoked bacon as well as 400gr kumara cut into small cubes. I cover and sweat this over low heat for 5 mins. I then add 2 cups of corn kernels and minced or shredded chicken thigh fillets. Stir this well and add 2 cups chicken stock, a bay leaf and simmer gently for ten minutes. I then add a roasted and peeled red capsicum which has been cut into finely diced pieces and season with 1 cup of milk, fresh parsley and some snipped chives.
This is an amazingly tasty and healthy soup and is even nicer the next day. A dollop of fresh or sour cream finishes it off nicely. Enjoy!!
I love a good tomato soup. In winter I try to make sure there is some form of tomato soup in the freezer ready to go. My current obsession is tomato and roast capsicum.
I love all soups, nothing is as easy and comforting in winter! Pumpkin would be my favorite, go to soup.
I enjoy most of La Zuppa range, and I love my homemade curried pumpkin soup.
My family love any homemade soup but there favourite is homemade pea and ham with scrummy bacon bones of ham hocks. A winner in our house especially when I make homemade rolls for dunking.
Can never go past delicious pumpkin soup
Cant go pass a good pea and ham soup with crusty sourdough bread on the side
Chicken soup, I know its not special or filled with sprigs of this or cracks of that, but its comforting, tasty and I love it.
Homemade soup & vegetable soup, yum…
I make a leek, celery and potato soup which is really yummy!
Mulligtwany. It’s curried lentil with thin slithers of fillet steak throughout. No winter soup like it!
French Onion
Punpkin Soup – hale and hearty for the summer
Potato and Leek for me – yummy yummy in my tummy

That would be my hubbies sweet corn and crab meat soup. Just so happens he will be making it tonight.

I can’t go past Potato, Leek and Bacon soup. So creamy and delicious!

Chicken & Corn love the smell in my home. Some lite music a bottle of wine. Life does’nt get a better.
Oh man, I would love the salt and pepper shakers. My grandpa really needs some at the moment, like all old people he is convinced that if you shake it hard enough it will come out.

Anyway, I love their soups as well, my favourite soup would be My favourite soup would be the delicious soup you get from hot pot after all the ingredients have been put and has been simmering away. In China, I had this amazing mushroom one and I still remember it to this day. Another instance, we liked the soup so much my grandpa asked to take the bones home so he could recreate it!! and they gave it to us

French Onion soup with crusty bread has always been my favourite soup since I can remember.
My homemade Chicken and Sweet Corn soup with noodles and broccoli is a guaranteed hit on a cold winter night. There is no other way the kids would eat carrot, corn or broccoli but drink it down and look for more when I make this one!
Pumpkin pumpkin pumpkin! By far my favourite soup, especially with a slice of grainy sourdough on the side.
Growing up my sister and I hated ‘soup with lumps’ like my dad made. You know, good healthy soups full of vege’s. How times have changed. Potato and leek soup, my favourite now. Warm, hearty and leeks just do it for me (:

I know lots of people have already suggested pumpkin soup, but you can’t go past it to warm you up.
