Blustery Fall Days & Soup



Image Credit
Blustery, cold fall days make a hot bowl of soup very appealing.  It’s great comfort food and easy to fill with healthy ingredients. Serving a bowl or cup of soup along with your choice of bread or sandwich several times per month really helps to stretch your grocery budget. 

When money’s tight, adding one or two of these recipes to your meal plan each month will help save money on your grocery bill. When you take the time to make soup yourself you will definitely be saving money.

 Broccoli Cheese Soup

 Homemade Chili

 Creamy Corn Chowder

 Taco Soup

 Potato Soup

 15 Bean Soup

Soup is also a wonderful resource for using up leftovers. Chop up leftover chicken, hamburger, ham or roast. Start by sauteing an onion and any other vegetables you have on hand and you have the beginnings for a great pot of soup.

 Vegetable Beef Soup

 Use It Up Potato Soup

What are some of your favorite soups to make?

    Chili, beef stew (slow cooker with leftover Sunday roast beef), apple cabbage soup, chicken tortilla soup, and the good old "It's-approaching-5p.m.-and-I-don't-know-what-to-fix" tuna cheddar chowder from "The Tightwad Gazette."
    Personally, I don't like soup very much at all, (not sure why) but these I can enjoy.

      Oh, those all sound so good, Meg. I love to make a stock pot full of chili as we can eat on that for days. :)

      I recall her writing about the tuna chowder. Tuna casserole is also pretty good now that I think about it.

    I call it pasta fagiole but its just a basic use it up kind of soup with beans a pasta as stretchers. Wild rice is our favorite, but with a ham bone, bean and ham is the best.

      Those all sound good too, Sam. I've made the pasta fagioli before and enjoyed it. My Dad always likes wild rice in the dressing for Thanksgiving. I enjoy wild rice as a side dish too. Any soup with beans and ham is going to be good too. :)

    These all sound great. I also love butternut squash soup, which is good if you are feeding anyone with food allergies/issues, and is pretty low cal

      My grandmother was a good cook like your mother, Lisa. She worked tirelessly in her kitchen while working full time at Pepperidge Farm and loved every minute she spent in her kitchen.

    Your soups sound delicious. I'm a true believer in hearty soups, and yes, they help stretch the budget.
    I like hamburger vegetable soup, and pea and ham.
    Wishing you a lovely Thanksgiving !

    When my husband does any meat on the smoker, I save the bones and make a lovely smoky stock and add while beans, kale or collards, carrots, and onions. This is great on it's own or with the addition of smoked sausage, pulled pork, or chicken. Serve with crusty bread.

    I like almost all soups, but I often make leek and potato soup. 😊

    I love all soups except for split pea. TheHub really likes it, but since I do the cooking he has to eat it when he goes out for lunch.
