Taco Soup!!
I made it last night, it was freezing here and IT WAS AWESOME!!


TACO SOUP

2 lbs. hamburger
1 onion, chopped
1 sm. can green chilies, chopped
1 tsp. pepper
1 pkg. taco seasoning
1 pkg. ranch dressing
1 can hominy or corn, undrained
1 can kidney beans, undrained
1 can pinto beans, undrained
3 cans tomatoes
1 1/2 c. water
Brown the first three ingredients together in large kettle. ****read the note that follows.

Stir in 1
teaspoon pepper, taco seasoning and dry ranch dressing. Add hominy, kidney
beans and pinto beans, tomatoes and water. Bring to boil and simmer 1
hour.

****I drained the hamburger well, then added more onions and the green chiles then...didn't want a greasy soup!!*****

I used only 2 cans of tomatoes, one being "chili ready" and the other being stewed, and added an extra 1/2 cup water.
I also added a can of black olives, chopped of course, and put it over Fritos....I forgot the sour cream to top it with, but nonetheless, it was AWESOME!!

Have you tried Italian peasent soup? It's so easy to make, just throw in a big pan, all the vegetables you have. Sweat them down for 8-10 minutes adding a bay leaf and some oregano, garlic if you like, and then add a few tins of chopped tomato and simmer for 20 minutes. Scoop out half of the vegetables and place in a bowl and leave to one side. Use an electric blender and pulp up the rest of the mix. Re add the rest of the vegetables. Serve hot and top with parmesan cheese.
Enjoy

I love Tortilla soup and Oxtail soup

OXTAIL SOUP

4 pounds oxtails
2 pounds beef or pork bones
2 carrots
2 onions
5 cloves garlic
1 or 2 celery stalks
1 leek
2 bay leaves
2 to 3 tablespoons each butter and olive oil
potatoes (optional)
flour or other thickener (optional)
salt and pepper to taste

In a stockpot or heavy cast-iron Dutch oven, brown 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, two or three carrots, two onions cut into slices, and herbs to season.
When vegetables begin to take on color remove from the stockpot and set aside.

Replenish olive oil and butter if need be and add 4 pounds of oxtails, and about 2 pounds gelatinous bones. Brown, turning and basting - do not allow to dry. The browning step can also be accomplished by roasting in the oven.

After the oxtails take on sufficiently roasted color, add five cloves garlic and brown for 10 minutes. When the garlic becomes roasted, mash it into the oil. Add water, only enough to cover. Return the carrots, onions, and add two bay leaves, a rib or two of celery cut into inch pieces, a chopped leek if you have one, a sprig of thyme and other herbs of your choice, and salt and pepper to taste.

Simmer on the lowest heat for 3-3 1/2 hours.

You can add quartered potatoes during the last half hour of cooking. If you like a richer stock, thicken with cornstarch or Wondra during the last hour.

If you enjoy more flavor, add a tablespoon of catsup or a fresh tomato during the final hour of cooking.

Cream of wild mushroom soup (can be found on Red Lobster's website) Very rich and yummy!

First, sorry to hear you have the bug!
I would say stay very clear of anything with a cream base. Anything with a broth, or tomatoe base would work well. I would also kick it up with a couple cloves of garlic - worked for me!
Hope you are feeling better.

Chowders are alright but the best kind of thing to eat is stew like beef, chicken or whatever you like in it with seasonings because it is hearty and will keep you warm.
