Re: With cooler weather coming, what is your favorite soups to make.

@ retiredatlast, we always had home made soup on Mondays growing up. My mother made delicious soups. I forgot about lentil soup and beef barley soup until you mentioned that. My mother would also make those.

@PA Mom-mom Do you want the slow cooker or the stove top version?

@Q-Checker  I guess the stove top, but I can adapt either version. Thanks!

Food Wishes site has some wonderful soup recipes. Have made the chicken pastina & the Ribollita (Tuscan Bread Soup). Both are excellent & have become part of our regular menu plan. Also, like to do a lentil soup with the refrigerated lentils from Trader Joe's.

@PA Mom-mom The two sauerkraut soup recipes are actually different --- and there is some history to that. I sent the stove top recipe, which I found  online, to a slow cooker cookbook author when she was on the prowl for new recipes to inspire her. She changed the recipe a lot  in her published version and at first glance, I was underwhelmed. Bur, I eventually tried the recipe and preferred it.  I will be glad to send both to you, but it will likely be a few days or so before I can do it.

A Cuban born neighbor loves the soup and welcomes it as a gift in response to the many favors he does for me. My Russian grandfather would love that!

@Q-Checker Thanks for your due diligence! I would be more likely to cook the stove top recipe, so don't bother with the slow cooker recipe. I could look up it up on the internet, but I'm always interested in recipes used and approved by people who love them. If it's too much trouble, don't worry about it. Thanks!

I don't cook, but my favorite soups are Campbell's chunky corn chowder and chunky ham and bean.
