Today seems like a good day to make soup. It's really cold out and I don't have to go anywhere (except maybe the grocery store!).
Vegetable beef? Cream of chicken with rice and lemon juice? Chicken with lime juice, cilantro, and tortilla strips?
Some other kind?
Any good recipes?

2 tbsp. cornstarch dissolved in a small amount of water
Corn tortillas (about 10) cut into thin strips (you can use prepared chips)

1-2 cups cooked chicken (2 oz. per serving)
Monterey Jack cheese (1 oz. per serving)

Vegetable Beef is ALWAYS my favorite soup to make. Brunswick Stew is very good on a cold day, but really involved and it takes a good part of the day.

Beetroot soup with cream. One of my very favorites. I had it three days ago, after a long time, and it was great! We had it cold, because we're in the middle of the Summer, but you can have it nicely warm.
Easy and delicious!
Have a wonderful weekend, zen, and stay warm!! :) :)

Mushroom soup, now that's a soup I'd want to eat on a cold day. When it's served put some toast bread in it - yummm ;).
