During the winter months, I usually make soup at least twice a week. Everyone loves homemade soup here. It is economical and I can use up leftovers.

I like to make it at least weekly in cold weather. I especially like potato soup. I could eat potato soup all day every day for a very long time, even in warm weather.

We have soup night once a week right now.............if we were having our normal weather we would eat soup a few nights a week but we have been very mild this winter so we are still using the bbq and smoker!

I'm sitting here at work trying to remember what veggies we have so I can start some soup in the morning!!

In the winter I make soup once a week. Tonight we had cream of broccoli soup :lip:

 

[ACEHearts]

I usually aim for about once a week in the winter. Sometimes more, sometimes less. Now I'm craving some tater soup, so maybe that will be lunch tomorrow!

About once a week on average. Dave made homemade chicken soup last night for dinner, and it was delicious :lip:

MY hubby won't eat soup except at lunch about twice a year. He will eat stew and chili so I make that often.

 

[mom22grls]

My dh cries if I make soup, too. I maybe make soup once or twice a year. He likes chili, though, as long as it's thick like a casserole and I make that in the cold weather about 2x a month.

 

[QuilterMom]

Dh usually makes his special vegetable soup (in a big Nesco so we freeze much of it) about once a month.

 

[mizniteowl]

The only soup I have a recipe for is potato (so good!) and I make it about once every 2 weeks.

 

[sunshine]

At least once a week, year round. . . .more often in colder weather.

 

[qponfanatic]

Could someone please post their potato soup recipe?

 

[Scattymum]

I make leek and potato soup every other week, DH isnt to fond of veggie soup. I made brussel sprout and chestnut soup a few weeks ago and that was yummy ( i didnt tell anyone it was brussel sprouts until after they ate it LOL)

mermaid - here is the recipe I use - I dont really measure anything though - just chuck it all together

chop an onion finely and a couple of leeks and saute in a small bit of butter.
add water and a vege stock cube and then add chopped potatoes ( I suppose I use about6-8 medium sized ones). season to taste

boil until potatoes are soft and starting to fall apart.

drain off water ( if you like soupls thick then drain alot - if you like them thin then dont drain as much )

blend soup ( i use a little hand held blender whisk), I always add a good measure of cream and stir it in and then serve while piping hot). Its very filling

hope that made sense - its hard to remember the recipe when its just in your head and not written down

 

[YankeeMom]

In the colder months, once a week at least. When it's warmer, usually not at all. We aren't fond of cold soups and no one wants to eat hot soups when it's hot out.

 

[qponfanatic]

Thank you! That sounds wonderful :chef:

 

[britbunny]

I make soup once a week or more during the winter. During the summer I make soup on a Sunday so we have something to look forward to after the rugby.

I think I'll try leek and potato soup next week. I made butternut squash and chilli soup on Tuesday night and it was delicious. I guess I must be lucky as DH loves soup and eats any leftovers for lunch too!

 

[Pepper]

Not very often, maybe once a month in the winter!

 

[AmyBoz]

Never. I have never and probably will never make soup. No one likes soup here, except for me. So, it's not something I need to make.
