When it's too hot to turn on the stove, chill out with Icy Cucumber Soup with Smoked Salmon and Dill. A great selection of 'Soup-er Sides' will turn any bowl of soup into a hearty meal. No matter the season, Sunday Soup offers all the inspiration one needs to pull out a stockpot and start simmering a new family tradition. Soup's on!

5.0 out of 5 stars Novice soup maker creates yummy soup, January 26, 2009

By	Brian Sleman (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am a novice soup maker, but with the Sunday Soup recipes I have created two of the tastiest soups I have ever had, (Cauliflower w/Crispy Prosciutto and Tomato & Fennel). I can't wait to serve the Tomato & Fennel at my next dinner party. The soups are categorized by seasons, which makes for easy shopping, and optimal tastiness. I do recommend owning an immersion blender for the recipes; I picked up the affordable Cuisinart SmartStick, and it works like a charm.

5.0 out of 5 stars EVERYDAY Soup!--not just for Sundays!, December 9, 2008

Sunday Soup: A Year's Worth of Mouth-Watering, Easy-to-Make Recipes

This is a fantastic book! It is full of recipes that can serve as an entire meal, or can be the first course to a multi-course dinner. I came home from work today at 6 PM and made the Tortilla Soup in no time. I have made many of the recipes in this book and have never been disappointed. Be sure to try the Stilton Soup with Sauteed Pears and the Celery Bisque with Stilton toasts; your guests will be amazed. The "Cool Nights" Chili with Chicken, Corn and Chipotles feeds an army and is so flavorful. You can always count on Betty Rosbottom's recipes to be foolproof: her directions are unusually clear and the notes are always helpful. This book also makes a wonderful gift for just about anybody!
