Canned soup as SOUP WAS: Oh gawd strange soup

On Fri, 16 Dec 2005, jmcquown

Last week. My dad loves mushroom soup (always canned because I don't make it or eat it as "soup"). It's a great light lunch or dinner - especially with a grilled cheese. I always thin the soup with whole milk and add a pat (or so) of butter. He eats it often.

I eat the cream of chicken often (with the milk and butter) when I want something warm and light and filling. I also eat the Tomato as soup regularly - thinned with water and a pat of butter added.

I always know a day or two in advance that I am about to be stricken with a cold or the flu because I start thinking about a big cup of chicken

I will often buy "off brand" soups for cooking, but I always keep Campbells on the shelf for eating as soup. I just like it better.

I make a few homemade soups, but the ones mentioned above and a few others that other family members like are quick and easy and very tasty. I heat them in the microwave so there is no "fuss or muss" either.
