Katie's Super Turkey Sausage Soup

Mon, 30 Nov 2009 02:07:17 -0500

I concocted this on a cold, rainy Sunday and the family loved it! You can "take liberty" with the type of beans you add...whatever is in the cabinet. We like it spicy, but you can use the milder tomatoes with green chilies if you don't like so much heat. I also keep a bag of frozen chopped onions and peppers so putting this together takes about 10 minutes! We are always watching our calories around here, and this is also low-cal and low fat! -- posted by sophieollie

Spicy Tomato, Lentil & Coconut Soup from Saffron Restaurant,

Mon, 14 Dec 2009 11:28:03 -0500

This amazing soup is from the highly acclaimed Saffron restaurant in Arrowtown, NZ. It is absolutely delicious with naan!! Notes: The recipe calls for Star Anise, however I usually substitute fennel seeds.. I also use coconut oil instead of peanut and 3 cans of tomatoes if I don't have fresh. If you can't find Palm sugar, try brown sugar. Enjoy! (^^) -- posted by Mellowpuff

Fabulous Bean Soup

Mon, 21 Dec 2009 01:39:31 -0500

Vegetarian 15 Bean Soup

Wed, 23 Dec 2009 14:30:57 -0500

I wasn't willing to trust the bean soup seasoning packet to be vegetarian so this is the seasonings I came up with. I'm a "pinch here, pinch there" cook so you may need to adjust the seasonings to your taste. When cooking the beans, make sure they are tender before adding any acidic ingredients like tomatoes or lemon juice. -- posted by WindLass

White Navy Bean Soup With Ham Hocks

Mon, 28 Dec 2009 15:53:09 -0500

Ham hocks are available at your butcher. Okay, you might not have one. Do yourself a favor, and get to know one. If that means that you actually have to talk to the guy at the meat counter at the supermarket, so be it. Ask if you can get some hocks in. You would be surprised at the cost of the hocks. They are pure gold, and priced like dirt. -- posted by Jason Sandeman

Chacha's Quickie Portuguese Bean Soup

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 01:49:00 -0500

This is a recipe I came up with once using the ingredients I had on hand at the time. Since then it has become a favorite of many friends and family, and I get more requests for the recipe quite often. For those of you foodies who would tell me this isn't pure Portuguese, please save your breath I already know this, but it is the name given it by people who request it. I can make this soup up in less than an hour, and is best served with a good crusty loaf of bread. I usually place a selection of chopped green onions, grated cheese, diced tomatoes, and sour cream for my guests to dress up their soup any way they care to. -- posted by Chabear01

Memory Lane Black Bean Soup

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 01:58:26 -0500

I was so sad that Campbell's discontinued Black Bean Soup, so had to attempt a clone. Please note that there are no Southwestern spices in this version. Also no butter, oil, or meat. Most of the Black Bean Soup recipes one encounters these days are Southwest inspired. Not this one. Cubed avocado on top of each bowl is tasty and pretty. Or you could float a lemon slice on top. -- posted by Heirloom Tomato

Got a left-over ham bone? I do and this the recipe I'm going to use. This is "THE" perfect bean soup. A little different; makes a very hearty soup, full of good things. I've been making it for years. Vintage recipe, from the mystery book "Cooking School Murders." Prep time, of course, doesn't include soaking time for beans. You can use smoked ham hocks instead of a ham bone. -- posted by Jezski

African-Inspired Stew

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 14:04:29 -0500

The monstrously vague title doesn't do this stew justice; it uses the starchy richness of sweet potato and the fragrance of peanuts to produce a warm, hearty and delicious meal with different textures and aromas. It's healthy and filling, and can be easily adapted to your tastes. -- posted by MontrealJulia

Southern New Year's Day Soup

Sat, 02 Jan 2010 10:30:47 -0500

This wonderfully healthy collards and black-eyed pea soup by Sarah Cooper is a natural for New Year's Day. It started as a Cuban-style collards soup that included bacon fat, short ribs, Cuban sausage and ham hocks. Eventually Ms. Cooper decided to "de-fat" and change some of the ingredients to typical southern ones. The results are both aromatic and hearty, perfect on a cold day. To shorten prep and cooking time, you can use canned black-eyed peas, drained, rinsed and added towards the end of cooking time. Note: the recipe does not include soaking time for the dried peas. From the Atlanta Journal Constitution. -- posted by ninja

Pressure Cooker Ham and Beans With Spinach

Sat, 02 Jan 2010 10:34:33 -0500

This is a variation of cooking basic beans in the pressure cooker. As I was craving beans, I just threw this together with what I had on hand and the result was very good!! The ham was leftover and I was out of fresh onions so I used onion powder. I only use a digital pressure cooker so I can't speak for how this will work for the old fashioned kind. This is a great dish - ready in under an hour, start to finish!! -- posted by chefsandee

Yummy Beans N' Greens in a Bowl

Mon, 04 Jan 2010 23:48:30 -0500

A light and delicious fast fix meal that is easy on the waist and the pocketbook! This comes together very fast and will fill you up with just a few tasty but healthy ingredients. To me this dish seems like a beautiful marriage between Italian and Southern cooking. Hope you enjoy! PS: If you use a vegetarian 'chicken' broth this will be completely vegetarian friendly! Skip the parm or use a vegan parm and you have a vegan friendly dish! The portion is very generous! Adjust time if you are using more tender greens so they are not over cooked. -- posted by mama's kitchen

White Bean Turkey Chili

Mon, 11 Jan 2010 19:16:38 -0500

Wonderful low fat, tasty chili made with fresh tomatillos. The tomatillo fruit is surrounded by a paper-like husk formed from the calyx. As the fruit matures, it fills the husk and can split it open by harvest. The husk turns brown, and the fruit looks like a small, shiny green tomato. The green color and tart flavor are the main culinary contributions of the fruit to many Latin American dishes. NOTE: prep time does not include overnight soaking of beans. -- posted by TexasGal #2

Lauralie41 (Lori) gifted me with a RecipeZaar premium membership renewal and I wanted to thank her for her kindness! Please feel free to change the ingredients to personalize it to your tastes. If you don't want to use the crockpot, just make everything in a large pot, cover and let simmer on low for at least an hour. I have included some of Lori's favourite ingredients in this hearty soup and I hope that she and you like it. Enjoy! -- posted by Nif

Won Tons for Soup - Vegetarian

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 09:55:54 -0500

A vegan adaptation of a Cantonese-American favorite. Not hard to make but takes some time to stuff the wontons. Serve the wontons in a mild, low sodium vegetable broth (chicken flavor if possible). You can double or triple the wontons recipe, lay them out on a cookie sheet, and freeze them, then bag them and take them out to make soup in small quantities. The frozen wontons only take 1 or 2 minutes longer to cook than the fresh. -- posted by Shazzypupp

Pantry Vegetarian Chowder

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 11:54:14 -0500

If I recall correctly, this came from a package of dried beans. It's rich comfort food that isn't really too awfully bad for you as most things in the "comfort" category are. You could certainly substitute canned beans for the cooked dried beans and get the same result. (If you do, don't add any salt, as canned beans are already salted.) Time for preparation assumes dried beans and excludes the pre-soaking time of 24 hours. You can use 1-2 cups frozen corn instead of canned if you prefer. Two cans evaporated milk almost makes 3 cups. I use that and add half and half to make the 3 cups. I like to garnish this with some plain corn tortilla chips. -- posted by Cook In Southwest

Easy Vegetarian Black Bean Tortilla Soup

Wed, 03 Feb 2010 09:16:46 -0500

Quick, hearty soup with a bit of a kick. Can be made Vegan by omitting sour cream. Tame the spice down by substituting diced tomatoes for the Ro-Tel. I serve the soup with corn chips, but tri-colored tortilla strips add some visual appeal. I like to leave the black beans whole, but you can make it creamy by mashing the beans. -- posted by Chef #1540606

13 Bean Crock Pot Soup

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 10:19:13 -0500

A crock pot version of 13 bean soup. Super easy & super yummy! I buy the 13 bean soup mix in the bulk section of my supermarket. It contains the 13 varieties of dry beans as follows: Baby limas, large limas, garbanzo, great northern, black-eyed peas, navy, black, red pinto, red lentils, green lentils, yellow splits, green splits, and kidney beans. Even my toddler had fun eating this soup. It was almost like watching a kid sort their M&M candies into colors! We took the opportunity to teach her the name of each bean as she picked it out to eat. Be sure to plan ahead, as the beans need to soak overnight or for 8 hours before cooking. (Cook time noted includes soaking time.) -- posted by **Tinkerbell**

Middle Eastern Style Three-Lentil Soup With Potatoes (Vegan)

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 10:45:46 -0500

Based this off my other lentil soup recipe. You can find most of these ingredients in Indian grocery stores, it takes longer to cook because red lentils dissolve easily but the others don't. Particularly tasty with Recipe #411190. -- posted by the80srule
