ThisIsTheDay Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Pumpkin Soup? I'm not a fan of Rachael Ray, but this recipe is a favorite at my house. I've made the relish once when I had company, but usually I just garnish with craisins and call it good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In The Great White North Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Add heavy cream to any soup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlmiraGulch Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Roasted Potato and Leek soup. Divine. or maybe She-Crab Soup. So, so good. Amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truscifi Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 Hmm. Those look fabulous. I'm not in a seafood mood, but the potato and the pumpkin both look good. I found a sweet potato peanut soup recipe too. It doesn't actually have cream in it, but it would be pretty creamy from the pureed sweet potato, right? Now I have to go look in my pantry and see if I can make any of these without going to the store! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LostSurprise Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Love corn chowder (basically a corn and potato soup), but you can start many soups with a roux and end with cream and half and half before the seasonings are added. Creamy chicken noodle. Creamy broccolli. etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbmamaz Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 What I really miss, being vegan now, for allergy reasons, is my cheese soups. I used to make a broccoli cheese soup (which i kinda made up - probably saute onions in butter, add chicken broth, chopped broccoli, thyme, black pepper, cook until broccoli is done, add milk or cream, heat, add corn starch/milk to thicken, then melt in a stick of good cheddar). I also used to make this cheese/vegetable chowder, which is probably what I based the broccoli soup on. Hubby hates creamy soups, so now the creamiest soups I make are just potato soups that cook until the potatoes fall apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsJewelsRae Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 When I'm craving rich and creamy soup I go for Potato Bacon Soup or creamy Cauliflower Soup. I don't really have a recipe, I usually just wing it. ;) bonus- my kids love them! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myfunnybunch Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Oh yummy. I was wondering what to make for dinner tonight. I think I have leeks in the garden, so potato-leek soup it is. Thanks to the OP for posting this! I am going to be drooling over this thread for days! :) Cathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KungFuPanda Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Pumpkin Soup? I'm not a fan of Rachael Ray, but this recipe is a favorite at my house. I've made the relish once when I had company, but usually I just garnish with craisins and call it good.THIS soup is a favorite of mine. I add walnuts to the relish. MAKE the relish. It's worth it. I also like her chicken dumpling soup recipe. It's all rich and yummy and a complete meal in one pot. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/rachael-ray/chicken-and-dumplings-recipe/index.html When I want something creamy and hearty, I make Potato Skin Soup. That's what we call it. Just make potato soup however you like, then purée some of the potatoes and add some sour cream to thicken it. Wen you serve it, top with crumbled bacon, cheese, and sliced green onions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truscifi Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 So many delicious ideas in this thread! I love a creamy soup in cold weather, so I'll definitely be trying some of these in the next couple of weeks. I made a roasted carrot and pumpkin bisque tonight. It was going to be just pumpkin, but I didn't have quite enough. I think the carrots were a good addition though - they added a nice depth of flavor and a little sweetness.

magnificent_baby Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 This one is fantastic. It is very thick and creamy. I don't always use whole cream, sometimes half and half or even milk. So yummy and even better using a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/creamy-chicken-and-wild-rice-soup/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
