Autumn Soups?

[KO896]

It's time for me to start making some soups. I put some in the freezer for people at church and am always looking for those that hold up well to the freezer/microwave routine. Suggestions?

Butternut squash is always a nice one! Broccoli soup never fails, simple and fresh. a nice red lentil curry soup is wonderful on an autumnal almost wintery night, as well. Pasta e Fagiole is great, too, nice and hearty, and it's never a bad time for a good minestrone!

Mmm I love pasta e fagioli! I make it with sausage and peppers. My husband is watching his cholesterol, so I've been making everything with chicken or turkey. He's tired of it already and it hasn't been too long LOL Plus, he's cheated a few times, so he's not really suffering.

Not really cutting down if you're cheating, lol

He makes a valid point! How can he be an impartial participant if he doesn't try every single one of them? lol

And I think he did try every single one of them! LOL His favorite actually won the contest because it was made with brisket.

Chili always makes sense while watching football this time of year. I especially love white chicken chili.

We've had that a couple of times, but my husband prefers beef chili over any other kind. He was surprised when I used ground turkey (ground it myself!) the last time I made chili though.

I don't do turkey as a substitute. Maybe I will when I become more health conscious. Have you had Outback's chili before? I love it. No beans, just meat.

No, I haven't had that one. I don't usually order chili when I'm out because I can't have very hot things with my tongue (sensitive after cancer surgery). I like the idea of all meat though but beans help to stretch it into more meals
