#nonindian - This is an incredibly simple, comforting and a wholesome soup - Moroccan style, that can be dished out for a light hearty meal. It is very filling and you just don't need anything else. Well, you may pair it with some croutons or breadsticks. Rice may be substituted by couscous if you wish. Chicken too can be replaced with boneless mutton beef or pork if preferred. This piping hot soup is just perfect for a wintry night.

Croutons can be eaten as bite-sized crunchy snacks, or sprinkled in salads, so I make a lot and enjoy eating them in a variety of ways. This time, I made onion gratin soup.The soup is simply flavored with just onion and consommé. Transform the soup into a rich and deep dish by adding flavorful garlic cheese croutons. For 2 or more servings. Recipe by Mimato

Tasty, creamy avocado vegetable soup made with chayote squash and spice.

#nonindian - This is a very refreshing and a light soup in Thai style. I have used Thai green curry paste, kaffir lime leaves, galangal (Thai ginger), lemon grass along with lots of different veggies, coconut milk and some vegetable stock. For a non-veg. version, boneless chicken along with chicken stock can be added. This aromatic soup is a perfect meal in itself for weight watchers as it has all the goodness of vegetables. For more variations, you can add noodles, prawns, mushrooms, baby corn and broccoli too.

Another easy dump and go recipe. Perfect for busy weeknights and chilly evenings. I like to serve with some grilled cheese sandwiches, but you could just do some extra cheese and croutons on top or you could stir in some cooked pasta or cooked rice to make it a more filling main meal. This recipe makes quite a lot of soup, but without the cream and cheese it can be frozen or you can half the recipe in a 4 qt sized slow cooker..

This rich and creamy Thai soup is flavorful; mild on the spice level and is very easy to prepare. It can be a perfect accompaniment to any meal or as a perfect light dinner meal on its own (add shrimp). Feel free to dial up the heat-spice level (Sriracha sauce) with a balance of added sweetness (guava syrup).

This is a very plain and very cheap soup recipe. The idea is that you can add whatever you have to make it better.

This is a go to soup (meal) when I have leftover ham from a holiday meal. The smoked ham hock adds a great flavor. For a traditional Cuban meal, omit the meat and dairy, and serve with white rice. To “Mexican-ize” the dish, add some “heat” (jalapeno or hot sauce) within the cooking process and garnish with cilantro, salsa, etc.

A simple quick Soup that you can have ready in 45 minutes. You may need to add more water as it cooks along.

This is a spicy & sour curry. You can eat it with rice or drink it like a soup. If you like the taste of curry leaves, add it at the beginning before the tomatoes. You can filter the "Rasam" & drink or you can drink it as it is. Add a lot of "Rasam" to the rice, eat the rice & then drink the "Rasam".That's a style I know.

This easy soup, adapted from a recipe I found in averiecooks.com, makes for a delicious and light weeknight dinner. Serve with an assortment of garnishes so that everyone can customize their soup as they wish.

We love this soup, packed full of goodness and you can make it as mild or spicy as you like. My medium strength curry powder recipe is included
