For Christmas Eve, I usually make an oyster stew and one other type of soup. I need inspiration for the second type of soup. Please recommend your favorite soup recipe!

I love soup! This is my favorite- chicken tortilla soup http://www.chowhound.com/recipes/chicken-tortilla-soup-30472 I add a can of rinsed black beans to it.

Broccoli cheese http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/broccoli-cheese-soup/

And, probably not technically a soup, but this chicken and dumplings rocks http://www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/browse-all-recipes/classic-chicken-dumplings

I make a ton of soup just free style with some sauteed or roasted veggies, beans, good stock, can of tomatoes and add some pasta (just added to individual bowls so it doesn't turn to mush). I also do a butternut squash soup and a carrot soup simply by simmering one of those veggies in chicken or veggie broth until tender then pureeing it with some sauteed onions and shallots. Dash of cream at the end and seasonings like salt and maybe cinnamon and nutmeg.

That chicken tortilla soup looks delicious! I have made PW's broccoli cheese soup and agree it is great!

Chicken tortilla (http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/chicken-tortilla-soup/)! I shred a rotisserie chicken to cut down on prep, and serve with add your own toppings.

I got this recipe off a thread here a couple of years ago. We love it! Its amazing!!! My dh hates onions so I leave the onion out. I also usually just use one can of chilis.

I love chicken soup

I put a chicken carcass - either from a chicken I roasted or purchased as rotisserie, or WF sells carcasses for soup - in my slow cooker with several carrots and stalks of celery, at least three or four cloves of garlic lightly crushed and about three big pieces of ginger and filled with water. I let it cook on low for at least 24 hours.

Then I strain the broth.

In a large soup pot I sautee minced garlic and ginger...just "a bunch"...in some olive oil until fragrant. then I add cleaned and cubed pieces of chicken breast. once they are a bit cooked I add in a ton of chopped carrots, celery and turnip. let it cook for about 5 minutes and then i fill pot with stock. bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer and let the chicken and vegggie cook until done. I never add salt to my stock, so I always salt the soup

Once it's done, I add a bag of baby spinach and stir until wilted.

in fact, this is what we're having tonight - yum! :)

I've done a similar soup for meat eaters with italian sausage.

We love this one! When I am being lazy (most of the time...) I make it without the bacon and it is still delish. Linking my pin with my notes.

And this, though I don't usually do it crockpot and I make GF using sweet rice flour for the roux

And this - I cut the dairy and calories by doing half milk and half chicken broth, and I usually just boil the potatoes (as I would for mashed) in the broth.
