I find it quite over-powering. But the potato and bacon sound very fine indeed... maybe a cauliflower, potato and bacon... Thinking there might be some soup experimentation happening in the kitchen in the next few weeks!Sharon Archerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06836969154744451542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-50932213939171347982015-08-06T19:02:52.714+10:002015-08-06T19:02:52.714+10:00Sharon, mmm!

I come from a family of soup eaters and it's just the night for one now as I type - chilly around the edges. I don't have a favourite but a good home made tomato soup is great. Or broccoli and blue cheese. Or leek, potato and bacon. Sigh.

Love, love, love chickpeas!<br /><br />I confess that I don't usually add the chicken back into the soup. But on the occasions that I have, it's only a very small amount and chopped up very finely. I usually save the cooked chicken and use it to make a pie or stir it into a casserole sauce and get a whole other meal out of it!<br /><br />Making stock is a great way of knowing that the bones and all have been used in the process. And no added salt or other "flavour" enhancers. And it's so handy to have a good stash in the freezer!Sharon Archerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06836969154744451542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-23742659606671149992015-08-05T13:04:08.479+10:002015-08-05T13:04:08.479+10:00Amy, I'm a pea and ham lover too.

I made a beef, vegetable and chickpea soup earlier in the season and it's become a firm favourite too. This looks seriously good, though, Sharon, and I've never made my own stock so that could be a fun adventure. Now I have to ask, though, how much of the cooked chicken do you add in?<br /><br />Michelle Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07748538761711892080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-57148777297178356242015-08-05T09:09:09.087+10:002015-08-05T09:09:09.087+10:00I am such a soup girl! :-) Pea and ham is my absol...I am such a soup girl! :-) Pea and ham is my absolute favourite but I', adding this to my recipe collection, Sharon!Amy Andrewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12690419732247281048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-27264884677184181492015-08-05T07:50:42.148+10:002015-08-05T07:50:42.148+10:00This looks delicious, Sharon!

My recent favourite is a chickpea, coconut and kale soup that we serve with toasted tortilla pieces.
