re: Soups: Winter edition (also super healthy edition)

I'm trying to think of a healthy soup. I'm trying really hard.

I made potato soup 2 nights ago, but I garnish with sour cream, cheese and real bacon.

A sweet potato or squash soup without the cream or using skim milk or that fat free half and half might interest you. You can just adjust the recipes somewhat.

I make a red bean soup, but I put andouille in it. Could maybe substitute some lean ham or canadian bacon. Oh, but I use a ham stock with wine...there's always something bad in there!

You can cook about any vegetable in some chicken stock, puree it and make a soup, BUT most of them require the cream. If you're okay without that or using skim milk, you could alter all of those types. They don't really need a lot of cream if you make them a bit thick on the veggie side.
