Planning to cook something new with the cold snap coming next week. Besides gumbo, chili, chicken noodle soup (Stalekracker's recipe is awesome, by the way), taco soup, and artichoke soup, are there any other meals/soups y'all enjoy cooking during the winter? Looking for ideas. We've had gumbo and chili numerous times the last month and want to change it up next week.

Made a crab & corn bisque this weekend. Followed the recipe from Brits Cookin on Instagram & it was fantastic and really simple to make.

Planning to make a beef & veggie soup this week.

Tomato basil soup is also a good one that’s really simple to make.

This is a soup I posted about 10 years ago. I need to make it again. Also, we have a good soup thread that I'm trying to find.

wanted to make a roasted broccoli soup with gruyere over the weekend for a starter to Sunday night dinner. Found the recipe below and used the ingredient list loosely. It was really good.

LINK

The amounts below are approximate.

5 very large heads of broccoli
2 large heads garlic
Juice of 1 large lemon
4 medium sweet onions
@ 12 fresh thyme twigs or more bundled in twine
kosher salt and white pepper to taste
olive oil
@ 4 containers Swanson's chicken stock
@ 2 cups whole milk
fresh grated gruyere
crispy pancetta

I cut the broccoli heads into large chunks and tossed them in a bit of olive oil. Trimmed the tops off the garlic, placed on foil, poured some olive oil over the cut top and closed it up in the foil. Roasted at 425 for about 20 minutes. Removed the garlic. The broccoli took a little longer to get fully tender since the chunks were big.

In a little olive oil, I sauteed the chopped sweet onions. Squeezed the garlic cloves out and added them to the pot. Chopped the broccoli and added it and thyme bundle to the pot. Added the chicken stock, lemon juice, salt and white pepper and simmered about 30 minutes plus. Refrigerated overnight.

Pureed the mixture and added a bit more stock because it was too thick. Added the milk and heated, adjusted the seasoning and then served in cups, topped with the gruyere and crispy pancetta.

Really easy and nothing needs to be exact.

Add clam chowder.

Clam Chowder -- America's Test kitchen

and this African Chicken Stew

Spicy African chicken stew

The chicken stew has a Thai-like taste with the peanut butter added. I also added a can of stewed tomatoes and a can of tomatoes and okra. Can't remember if I included the garbanzos or not.

Chicken congee. We eat a lot of this during the cold months especially when someone is sick. It's also very easy to make.

We are having chicken wild rice soup tonight. I have made the cook aware that I want it thicker than a bowl of oatmeal.
