In the hierarchy of comfort foods, for me, tomato soup rules. Growing up, on cold days my mom would serve it to me and my sister for lunch, with Ritz crackers. It's still my go-to winter eat and, bonus, I can down gallons of the stuff and it won't pork me up. Max is a major soup man; he thinks it's fun to eat, and I love how it encourages him to feed himself.
For all of you soup fans out there, here's a treat: The nice people at Amy's natural foods have offered up three gift bags, each worth $50. You get the market bag shown here filled with:
1 Amy's Spanish Rice & Red Bean Soup, 1 Amy's Chunky Tomato Bisque, 1 Amy's Southwestern Fire Roasted Vegetable Soup, 1 Amy's Tuscan Bean & Rice Soup, and three coupons each good for a free Amy's item, frozen or grocery. Plus, lots of cool extras: An Amy's soup mug, t-shirt, notepad, magnet, coloring book, soy crayons and pen.
To enter, leave a comment about your favorite kind of soup!

My fav soup sounds kinda gross but it's really-really good! My grandmother used to make it...we call it hamburger soup.
ReplyDeleteWe boil a pound of ground beef, a cup of (soaked to soften) dried red beans & a cup of dried soup mix, a tin of tomato paste & veggies...carrots & green beans are perfect! When the meat, beans & veggies are cooked through add a cup of uncooked pasta! -If you add the pasta too soon it cooks down to mush while the other ingredients are cooking.
Add a hunk of crusty bread & it's the perfect supper for cold weather!

Interestingly, up until a few months ago I didn't like soup. Thought it was a waste of space, didn't have enough substance, etc. Then I went on a diet and discovered the magic of soup! I'm 28 pounds down now and soup has definitely helped. I particularly love lemon-chickpea-arugula soup and/or parsnip and potato soup with a sprinkling of sea salt and freshly grated parmiggiano reggiano cheese. Yum!
ReplyDeleteFor me it is a tie between tomato soup and potato cheese soup
