Hi Kate -- Yep, it's definitely soup kinda weather. Our favorite is Mama Gina's (that's me) Split Pea Dinner.
2 cups split peas
1 box (qt. size) chicken broth
2 cups water
1 onion chopped
2 carrots shredded
2 celery stalks chopped
garlic salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbs. Marjoram
1 lb. Jimmy Dean sausage with sage
1 heaping cup bite sized potatoes (or more, your choice)
Put everything except sausage and potatoes in your crock pot. Let it simmer all day add more water as needed to attain the thickness you like. Two hours before serving make little meatballs from the sausage and add. About an hour before serving add the potatoes. Voilla -- Split Pea Soup Dinner!
And, one soup tip I learned from the great Jesuit Monks Soup book was to add a cup of white wine in place of a cup of water to any soups . . . really kicks up the flavor.
Yum in the tum,
jean

Hi there Kate!
I have lots of delicious soup recipes that I love to make. Here are 2 of my favourite recipes that will warm the soul on a cold, wintery day! Enjoy!
Chicken & Almond Soup
6 tbsp butter
1 medium leek, chopped
1/2 tsp shredded fresh root ginger
3/4 cup ground almonds
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp crushed black peppercorns
1 fresh green chilli, chopped
1 medium carrot, sliced
1/2 cup frozen peas
1 cup chicken, skinned, boned, and cubed
2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
scant 2 cups water
1 cup single cream
Melt the butter in a deep frying pan, and saute the chopped leek and the root ginger until soft but only just turning brown. Lower the heat and add the ground almonds, salt, peppercorns, chilli, carrot, peas and chicken. Fry for about 10 minutes or until the chicken is completely cooked, stirring constantly. Add the chopped fresh coriander. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Transfer the mixture to a food processor or blender and process for about 1 1/2 minutes. Pour in the water and blend for a further 30 seconds. Pour back into the saucepan and bring to the boil, stirring occasionally. Once it has boiled, lower the heat and gradually stir in the cream. Cook gently for a further 2 minutes, stirring from time to time.
One-Pot Chickpea & Chorizo Soup
2 chorizo sausages, finely chopped
1 brown onion, finely chopped
1 large carrot, peeled, finely chopped
2 celery sticks, finely chopped
1 large zucchini, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 tsp smoked paprika
400g can diced tomatoes
4 cups chicken stock
400g can chickpeas, rinsed, drained
1/3 cup basil pesto
Heat a large, deep saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring for 2 minutes or until light golden. Add onion, carrot, celery, zucchini and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until onion is tender. Add the paprika and cook for 30 seconds or until aromatic. Add the tomato and stock. Increase heat to high. Bring to the boil. Cook for 10 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and the soup thickens slightly. Stir in the chickpeas. Cook for 1 minute or until heated through. Season. Serve with pesto.

Great topic! Here is a go to for me when I need something quick, it freezes well and I double to feed a crowd. So easy and it is very good.
Harvest Bean and Pasta Soup
3 ˝ cups water
2 oz. (1/2 cup) small ditalini pasta (any small tubular pasta will work) (small shells)
˝ cup chopped celery
1 (8 oz.) can butter beans
1 (1.15 oz.) envelope beefy onion dry soup mix
˝ tsp dried basil leaves (I think oregano maybe some sage or dill weed would work too)
1 (16 oz.) can pork and beans
1 (14.5 or 16 oz.) can tomatoes cut up
May add browned ground beef (I used Hillshire Farm Smoked Beef Sausage)
Bring water to a boil in large saucepan or Dutch oven. Stir in pasta, celery, soup mix and basil. Return to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 7 – 10 minutes or until pasta is done. Stir in pork and beans, butter beans and tomatoes. Cook until thoroughly heated. Garnish with shredded cheese if desired.

Hi Kate!
This is my go-to soup! A family favorite that my beloved Grandma used to make! Very hearty, super delicious, and warming to the soul on icy cold winter days!
Grandma Dulude’s French Vegetable Soup
(She called it “Venus De Milo” Soup. The Venus De Milo was a restaurant in Swansea, MA, where we would attend a lot of wedding receptions, and this was the soup they served. Very popular!)
In large pot, quickly brown 1 lb. ground beef and drain.
Add:
1 large can chicken broth
1 quart water
1 package onion soup mix
2 stalks celery, chopped finely
Boil for 20 minutes.
Now add:
14 oz. canned tomatoes or stewed tomatoes, cut into small pieces, with juice
1 package frozen vegetable mix
˝ c. orzo (pasta)
Boil for 15 minutes longer.
Add:
1 T. worchestershire sauce.
Serve hot. Add a little grated parmesan to each bowl, if desired. ;
I'm telling you, on a cold day, there’s nothing like it!
Enjoy!
