Consider Making These 5 Soups

By Diane Freeman

Everyone loves a good bowl of soup before enjoying a meal. It's an easy dish to prepare and it's a great touch as an appetizer to start a lunch or dinner with. I've been preparing different varieties of soup for a long time.

Depending on what it's in it, a good soup can vary in both consistency and taste. I've been cooking soups for years now, and I'm going to share a few ideas with you if you're bored at home with the same old soups. There are plenty of ideas that you've probably never even thought about.

1. Apple and roasted butternut squash soup. This is a great one, as you've probably already had and enjoyed a nice butternut squash soup. However, the apples add some kick to this, and the two go really well together.

You've probably had soups with croutons in them, but this variety is my favorite when it comes soups featuring croutons. Broccoli soup with a cheese flavored crouton is absolutely great. Whether it's cheddar, swiss, or any other variety, you'll want to go with whatever suits your personal tastes.

3. Potato nugget soup. You can prepare the potato any way you want, but I would suggest baking it to keep it healthy. Boiling the potato is another way to go, as it'll naturally boil while being cooked with the soup anyway.

4. Pumpkin soup. A great option for the fall holiday, and a tasty treat as well. Add some spices into this one for an extra touch. It can be served both hot and cold, and I'd suggest sprinkling in a bit of pepper or other seasoning to give it an extra kick.

Lastly, a cream of turkey soup with turkey dumplings inside. This requires a bit more work, but it's such a great soup and my personal favorite. If you have the energy to pull this off and you like turkey, then I know how you'll feel about this soup.

Well, I hope I've inspired you in one way or another. Most importantly, have some fun and always test the limits. - 29958
