Soups are one of my favorite things to cook. You can take them in a million different directions.

Here's a soup thread we bump pretty annually. It also has a few other links to threads in it. You may find some things you like in it.

I make some sort of soup most weekends because I have older family members who like soup all year round. We usually eat together on Sunday nights and they like a cup of soup as an app. Since I do it so much, I look for some easy ones for some of the time and particularly during hot months.

Over the past year, I discovered that frozen sweet peas make wonderful soups. You can use mint or tarragon, serve hot or cold, top with sour cream, cream fraiche or plain yogurt... I'd never used frozen peas in my life, but they work so well. And, most any soup without dairy in it will freeze well. I have a friend who begs me to freeze extra servings of soups for her. She lives out of town, so I bring them to her or have someone else who is going there deliver for me.
