I did Lean and Green chili at my show last night. It was awesome. The hostess also made the smashed potato soup. Both recipes came from the "It's Good for You" cookbook.

The chicken alfredo soup is wonderful...even my son and daughter love it. And, it is very easy to make.

Hey Heather!

I'm actually doing that soup on Sunday at my "Soup and Slippers" show. This is the only soup I've ever done at shows. I think it's a great demo and everyone always loves it. It's also very easy to double for bigger groups. Yum!

Thanks Becky!

Smashed Potato Soup....It's in the "ITs Good For You" cookbook....it is incredibly simple to make - 10 minutes to put together, and 10 minutes to cook....and if you do the condiments for the top, you can also show stoneware (for the bacon), and the UM (to grate the cheese). I had moe raves for this show than any I have ever done....I served it with beer bread.

I LOVE the Lazy Lasagna Chili, Quick Tortilla Soup, and the Smashed Potato Soup.....all easy & yummy

I love the Greek Lemon Chicken soup from It's Good For You. A lot of people who frequent family restaurants will recognize this soup, and it's really easy to make.

I need to make soup for a crowd this weekend (not a show--but maybe I'll get some orders!) I am making Baked Potato soup and was wondering if you think I would be able to make it in the roasting pan? (I'll probably be doubling or tripling the recipe). What do you think?
