Its my new 'Autumn 2011' addiction.
Extremly tasty and most are low fat and low calorie, yet very filling.
I love Soup.
What's your fave? Anybody got any recipes for home made soup?

Yes Rude leek and potatoe i buy it ready cut in a bag fresh from asda £1 can`t beet it very tasty

Me and Plus just had some 'Country Vegetable' and then he got greedy and opened some Leek and Potato (i employ the '20 minute rule) so I got my share of Leek/Potato to look forward to tomorrow! Yay!

@Rocks
I am sooo over Cottage Cheese (almost-just the two tubs, to wade through now)
Soup is where its at!!

i like the big soup. But have been making my own. Have a google 4 recipies.

I'm addicted to making soup!! Tomorrow I will be making leek & potato, vegetable broth, pea & ham and chilli carrot, roasted red pepper & butternut squash soups. They get portioned up, put in pour & store bags* and put in the freezer. Same goes for the bread rolls. I won't buy soup unless I know I'll be unable to make my own. With some of them, the slow cooker is your friend.

I have shed loads of recipes if anyone wants any


*other makes of storage bags are available at all good stores

Mmm sounds lovely wench, I'm hungry and fancied some oxtail before but as I have acid indigestion I'd best stick to my gaviscon.

Homemade oxtail is lush but it is a ball ache to make - worth it though Gutted over the gaviscon

Lansoprazole could be your new best friend

stopping the consumption of ale, junk food and spices could be a better one.

I couldn't give up real ale!! It's my only occassional vice

Everything in moderation, if it starts to hurt, give it up.
Speaking from experience unfortunately.

I've had one bottle in 3 weeks. I have 4 more in the fridge so they'll probably last me past christmas

Mmmmmmm homemade soup, I had a go of making my own soup last year, so easy to make. turned out great but it was not as nice as nans.

My fave soup to make is thick creamy mushroom soup...i make it by the cauldron full and add bits to it to bulk it out over meals!
Went to Southport yesterday for a walk round and found a restaurant/bar in a side road called Auberge, 1-3 Seabank rd, Southport.
Had the most amazing Potato and Curry soup ever!!
NEED a recipe!!

I my fav is tomato or any home made soup:)
Mmmmmm reading this has made me hungry lol

omeprazole does it 4 me

Bloody awful, isn't it? Acid Reflux was the reason i started living on soup.

Not sure if we got 'Extra Special' range but I was well impressed with the '5 tins for £2'

The best Oxtail one has got to be Heinz tho?!
The others just are not as tasty x

I very rarely eat tinned soup,i've got a lovely mummy who makes some scrummy one's,freezer is always full!

I love chicken tho,haven't had mushroom for years,wonder how that tastes in the heinz style? Lol X

Butternut squash and ginger soup

1 tbsp olive oil
1 medium butternut squash, peeled, seeds removed and chopped into chunks
½ onion, chopped
1 heaped tbsp chopped ginger
1 tsp chopped red chillies
1 litre vegetable stock
125ml coconut milk, plus a little extra for serving
a handful of roughly chopped mint leaves and chopped chives (optional)
lime juice

Method

In a large, wide-based pan, heat the olive oil and cook the butternut squash, onion, ginger and chillies until soft.
Add the stock, coconut milk and some salt and pepper, then bring to the boil and simmer for about 30 minutes.
Blend in a processor, then serve with the fresh herbs if using, a squeeze of lime juice, and extra splash of coconut milk.

you cant beat a good lentil soup or potato and leek, best way to keep warm in the winter

Why not ask your mum to show you how to make simple dishes so that when you fly the nest you can start looking after yourself and even invite friends to call in for a meal?

Butternut squash and ginger soup

Thanks for this which I will make.

I usually avoid hot chillies.
Will this soup burn my throat or will it be ok?
