Saturday Soup Day

So, it’s still raining here in my world.

Rained all night, and while I don’t think there was ever any thunder and lightening, the power was out for a few hours in the middle of the night. We slept with the windows open listening to the rain all night.

And this morning, once again, I have no hot water.

Anyway, I’ve decided that this fall, Saturday is going to be Soup Saturday.

How does this involve you?

I want your soup recipies. I beleive I’ve posted before that I turn into a homemade soup fiend during the fall and am always looking for new soup recipies. And I’ll share mine in return.

Of course, I don’t measure or anything so it’s not like these are real recipies. Last night I made French Onion Soup.

Emma’s French Onion Soup:

Onions (I used about 10)
Beef stock (I used 3 cans and then 6 cups of instant bullion)
Spices (I used salt & pepper, dried thyme and crumbled bay leaves)

Cut up the onions and cook in oil and butter. When they’re about half the size they were when I put them in, add the spices, cook a little longer, then add the liquid.

***This makes A LOT of soup. I’d guess about 1 onion/serving would suffice***

So, what’s your favorite kind of soup to make?

    Tess - What’s Brunswick stew?

    Robyn - Hamburger soup sounds like something the Hubster would love!

    I like chili, and hamburger soup sounds super tasty. I like brocolli and cheese soup too. I can’t make any soups though, but i am a big fan of the eating of them.
