Just simmer a chicken slowly, I like to let it cool in the juice for a richer flavor but you don't have to. Anyway remove and debone chicken. Add sliced celery, onions, green onions, salt, lots of pepper and a some rice. Put the chicken back in %26amp; simmer till rice is done. I LOVE IT!!!!
Potato soup
Simmer chicken cool, remove %26amp; debone. Cut up red potatoes, onion, garlic, salt and lots of pepper. Always put a spoon of sugar in. Add chicken and simmer till potatoes are done. When done put in some chopped green onions.
Cheese soup Yum!
Add onions to some chicken broth, salt, pepper %26amp; simmer till onions are tender, add some half %26amp; half %26amp; grated cheddar cook till melted and thickens top with green onions. WOW!! , you'll need some french bread with that!Looking for some recipes for home made soup like leek and potato, vegetable. Any ideas?
You need a recipe? Sweat off the thinly sliced leeks in vegetable oil. Dice potatoes, add to the pan, and toss them in the oil. Add hot veg or chicken stock and a handful of chopped, fresh herbs. (If you're not sure use parsley - it's a matter of preference). Bring to the boil and simmer til the potatoes are cooked. (Depends on the potatoes and how small you have diced them). You can add other diced veg if you like. When the veg are cooked, season with salt and pepper.
You can liquidise the soup or serve it as it is. Again, it's a matter of preference. For special occasions, dribble some sour cream over the soup before you bring it to the table.Looking for some recipes for home made soup like leek and potato, vegetable. Any ideas?

chicken and rice soup? Chicken noodle soup?
Whenever using leeks, cut them lengthwise and wash very well to remove grit.
A basic soup starter can be done by lightly browing the following vegetables (chopped medium in a food processor) in a minimum amount of oil in a 6 qt. dutch oven pot:
1 leek, trimmed, cleaned [you can use the greens, too, though most recipes say only use whites--a waste if you ask me]
OR 2 medium onions
2 medium carrots
1 stalk celery
2 - 8 cloves garlic [depends how garlicky you like your soups]
Saut茅 these veggies but don't brown.
Potatoes: Use 4 or 5 fist-sized potatoes. Scrub skins, cut into medium chunks, add cold water to cover. Boil until nearly tender. [you can use leftover baked potatoes, too]
Add potatoes and liquid to sauteed veggies.
Simmer 20 - 30 minutes.
Take off flame and cool down.
Whiz it up in a blender in several batches AND ADD ABOUT 2 CUPS PART SKIM RICOTTA CHEESE TOTAL until it is smooth.
Salt %26amp; pepper to taste.
Serve warm or cold, garnish with a fine dusting of nutmeg. This is great with a loaf of crusty bread.
You can also add more veggies, like your choice of chopped zucchini, or winter squash.
Or instead of ricotta cheese, use chicken stock.
Have fun!
This is the best one I could find!

I just made this soup this morning, literally as i got up!
you need 400g asparagus, 1 leek, 1 stick of celery, 1litre of vegetable stock and a white onion.
chop the leek, celery and onion and cook on a very low heat for ten mins until soft and sweet, not coloured, in a little olive oil.
chop the asparagus tips off and keep to one side then chop the stalks, having removed the woody end.
once the veg is cooked add the stock and asparagus stalks and simmer for 20 mins.
blend with a hand blender or in a liquidiser until smooth, add the tips and return to the heat. all done once the tips are soft!
altho i should warn you if you're genetically disposed that way, asparagus will make your wee smell funny!

Carrot and coriander
How about a chilli based soup without the meat, loads of veg and mushrooms with kidney beans to making it high fibre and filling.
Stilton, cauliflower adn brocilli
Cheese and onion mmhh
This weekend I made my usual soup (vegetables I happen to have soup). This time it was:
1 onion
4 carrots
4 parsnips
half a swede
a couple of handfuls of lentils.
I fried the onion gently to soften it, then chucked in the rest (peeled and chopped of course), add enough water to well cover the veges and some stock powder. Simmer till the veges are all cooked, you'll probably have to keep the water topped up. Then liquidize or push through a sieve if you havn't got a blender, add water if it's too thick, salt and pepper, and there you go!
Good luck, hope you enjoy your soup...
