I LOVE home made chicken noodle, but I made this potato soup recently and it was soooo good!
Absolutely Ultimate Potato Soup
PREP TIME 10 Min
COOK TIME 30 Min
READY IN 40 Min
8 servings
INGREDIENTS
1 pound bacon, chopped
2 stalks celery, diced
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
8 potatoes, peeled and cubed
4 cups chicken stock, or enough to cover potatoes
3 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
3 teaspoons chopped fresh cilantro
salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
In a Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until done. Remove bacon from pan, and set aside. Drain off all but 1/4 cup of the bacon grease.
In the bacon grease remaining in the pan, saute the celery and onion until onion begins to turn clear. Add the garlic, and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the cubed potatoes, and toss to coat. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Return the bacon to the pan, and add enough chicken stock to just cover the potatoes. Cover, and simmer until potatoes are tender.
In a separate pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour. Cook stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the heavy cream, tarragon and cilantro. Bring the cream mixture to a boil, and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Stir the cream mixture into the potato mixture. Puree about 1/2 the soup, and return to the pan. Adjust seasonings to taste.

I love soup any time of year!
My recipe:
2 pork steaks
diced potatoes
1 large onion, diced
baby carrots
2 cans diced tomatoes
1 can whole kernel corn, drained
1head cabbage, shredded coarse
1 can English peas, drained
1 can water
3 chicken bouillon cubes
1 tsp. celery seeds
Put all in crock pot and cook on high for an hour or so; then on low all day. I season with diced garlic,
black pepper, a bit of cajun seasoning, and a bit of salt if desired. When done, remove meat, de-bone, trim away fat and dice. Return meat to soup.
Serve with warm wedges of cornbread. GREAT!!

INGREDIENTS
2 small sugar pumpkin
3 cups chicken stock
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground sage
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 tablespoons sour cream
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Cut pumpkins in half and scoop out seeds. Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray.

Once pumpkins are cool scrape flesh from skins into a food processor. Discard skins.
Add chicken stock to the pumpkin and puree. Pour soup into a large saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in cream, nutmeg, sage and salt. Mix well and remove from heat. Serve garnished with a dollop of sour cream

My favorite soup and it's good for you.
Barley and Ham Soup

3/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoon margarine or butter
5 cups chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 cup diced fully cooked ham
1 cup diced carrot (about 2 carrots)
1/2 cup quick-cooking barley
1 14-1/2-ounce can tomatoes, undrained and cut up
DIRECTIONS
1. In a large saucepan cook the onion, celery, and garlic in margarine or butter until tender but not brown. Stir in the water, dried oregano and basil (if using), pepper and carrots. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 30 minutes.

I would say I have two favorites: A copycat version of Olive Garden's Zuppa Toscana that I found and made a few changes to, which is extra fabulous:
Zuppa Toscana
1/2 pound Italian sausage, cooked and crumbled
5 red potatoes, cut into 1/4-inch slices
3/4 cup chopped onion
6 slices bacon
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 cups spinach or kale - washed, dried, and shredded
4 cups chicken broth
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
Place onions and bacon in a large saucepan and cook over medium heat until onions are almost clear.
Remove bacon and crumble. Set aside.
Add garlic to the onions and cook an additional 1 minute. Add broth, potatoes, and sausage and simmer 15 minutes.
Add crumbled bacon, spinach, and cream. Simmer 4 minutes and serve. Season with red pepper flakes if desired.
And my other favorite is Slow-Cooker Chicken Enchilada Soup.
1 pound chicken
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce
1 medium onion, chopped
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chile peppers
1 can black beans, drained
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups water
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 (10 ounce) package frozen corn
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
7 corn tortillas
vegetable oil
Place chicken, tomatoes, enchilada sauce, onion, green chiles, black beans, and garlic into a slow cooker. Pour in water and chicken broth, and season with cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Stir in corn and cilantro. Cover, and cook on Low setting for 6 to 8 hours or on High setting for 3 to 4 hours. An hour before done, remove chicken peices and shred. Return to crock pot until soup is done.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F .
Lightly brush both sides of tortillas with oil. Cut tortillas into strips, then spread on a baking sheet.
Bake in preheated oven until crisp, about 10 to 15 minutes. To serve, sprinkle tortilla strips over soup. Serve with shredded cheese and sour cream. (Well, WELL worth it to make the homemade tortilla strips!)
Last week we had temperatures in the sixties and seventies and I was SO excited that fall had arrived and I could make soup again. And this week it's back in the eighties and nineties! Booo! Oh well! Happy soup cooking!

How approximately Turkey Chili with quite some greens. All you do is saute floor turkey breast with onions. whilst that's completely cooked, upload 2 cans of overwhelmed tomatoes. Then, I upload onions, green peppers and purple peppers and beans. you additionally can Chili seasoning. enable it simmer for 20-half-hour on low-mid warmth. Serve it in a mug. you could upload fat-unfastened or decreased fat cheese to the suitable and enable it soften. this may be a modification of an previous Weight Watchers Turkey Chili Recipe. In that recipe, you could upload green zucchini or yellow squash. I do this oftentimes. It makes a large lunch or a mild snack. it is likewise loaded with greens. different large techniques: -Scrambled Eggs -cut back up grilled/sauteed rooster Breast and sparkling broccoli -Pasta with sauce -low-sodium, all-organic turkey from the deli on total wheat bread. -Pastina
