Soup season! That explains the dreams where I keep trying to put a chicken into a hot tub.
I started making some soups recently. So easy and so good.
But. Nothing. Nothing! Beats. My. Chili.
I need to make it now...
- Chili con carne?
  Fillers (Beans, pasta?)
  Cheese?
  
  I don't have a recipie. I just know what I like after making it so many times.
  The carne is steak. Sold as stew meat. Awesome because it takes on the spices and softens up very nicely in a crock pot (slow cooker).
  Beans: kidney, great northern, black, garbonzo, and lima. More kidney than the others.
  Many different spices but primarily chili powder, fresh minced habenero, ground black pepper, Valentina Extra Spicy and lime juice.
  Fresh mushrooms and onions.
  Top with sour cream and/or shredded extra shap cheddar. Cornbread optional.
  This doesn't really do it justice, just a rough guide. And I don't think I've made it exactly the same twice.
- Does it have chocolate or beer in it?
  
  No.
  Interesting ideas tho.
I just made a huge pot of chicken noodle with two Costco rotisserie chickens. Freezing most of it. Did chili last week. Goulash next.
- Nice! I'll usually make a couple batches of my favorite soups in the fall and freeze indvidual potions to eat throughout the winter. Nothing beats a freezer full of homemade soups.
- I absolutely love using rotisserie chicken in my recipes, especially chicken noodle soup and chicken pot pie
I just made leek+potato soup a couple days ago for the first time. Its so easy and good :)
That's amateur stuff. You gotta get into dips.
This is all I eat - dips for dinner.
I fucking love soup
No soup for you!
Pumpkin spice soup! Yum!
Why do people try to convince themselves they like soup? It's just so . . . wet.
Now a good chili, that's were it's at.
- Have you ever had split pea soup?
  You will be the most regular you've ever been the next morning. Like toothpaste.
  Plus so tasty.
  
  I have indeed had the misfortune of trying split pea soup, and I literally can't think of a more vile and disgusting soup.
  
  We do a couple a year. Pro tip: we slow cook a ham and use the juice for the broth. Also, throw in some of the ham.
