To get a few more servings, she would stretch the recipe by adding mini pasta shells. This ground beef soup is hearty and chunky, loaded with delicious vegetables and plenty of juices for a chunk of cornbread to soak them up.

Homemade Chicken & Rice Soup
Homemade Chicken & Rice Soup reminds me of the days when I would open up a can of Campbell's Chicken and Rice Soup for a quick meal. Yes, I like Campbell's soups and still eat them on occasion, but I love homemade soup. The aroma it gives off while it is cooking is comforting in itself. I like to simmer up a big pot and freeze it in quart containers to have for lunch or a late supper. You can thaw it out in the microwave or set in the refrigerator the night before, and you can have it ready in as much time as it takes to open a can and cook it.

Rich Tomato Basil Soup Copycat {la Madeleine' Is My Favorite}
Tomato Basil Soup, no matter the season, this soup will be the one you turn to when some one says "soups on". It is briming with rich flavors and hearty ingredients. Today it is raining like crazy here in Northeast Texas. We experienced a dangerous drought this Summer and early Fall, so we are not complaining. Today is a perfect day for soup, and my Tomato Basil Soup is a quick and hearty tomato soup to warm you up. My favorite place to eat Tomato Basil Soup is at a la Madeleine' Country French Cafe -- so much so that I had to find out how to make it. I found this copycat recipe that is the closest to la Madeleine's so far. Their Signature Tomato Basil Soupe is available at Sam's, and I must say I do buy it occasionally, but it is pretty pricy. It doesn't go very far --- so this soup is a fill in until I make it to my favorite eating place.

Oh wow! It certainly is soup weather these days. The nights have been in the 40s and the days warming up a little. Soup and cold weather just go together. One of my favorite places to go with a dear friend of mine is Olive Garden to eat their Minestrone Soup . We get their lunch special of endless soup, salad, and breadsticks because it easy to order, we know it is going to be delicious, and the salad and breadsticks are first on the table. Yum! We don't get to do this very often, but when we do, we just talk and talk and talk.You might say endless talking (giggles). This Minestrone Soup is the perfect soup to warm you up. It is chock-full of vegetables and just enough pasta to make it filling. The base of the soup is simple, with sauteing an onion and going from there. You build on flavors by adding the broth and some of the vegetables. I am not sure if Olive Garden does this or not, but this is an Italian soup, and by adding a big chunk of Parmesa
Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup
Homemade Chicken Noodle , made from scratch, brimming with wholesome chicken and plenty of carrots and egg noodles. Simply nourishing! We have had a good bit of cold weather, and not to mention snow this year that gets me in the mood to make homemade soup often. Chicken Noodle Soup is one of my favorite soups to make, even though when I get ready to make it, I usually reach for the venison meat or beef roasts, thinking it is quicker and easier. Actually, it is not -- you use as few ingredients or in some cases the same, and what is great also is that I do the one pot method. I slowly cook a whole chicken in a stock pot and removed it while I cook the vegetables in that wonderful chicken broth. I used ready available vegetables that I have on hand like celery, onions, carrots, and this time I happened to have some leeks, which I love in soup. Then I added the big chunks of chicken back in with the noodles and simmered it for awhile. There is something
