Notes about Recipes in this book

• Hamburger, macaroni, and bean soup

  • deanna_txdy6i on April 04, 2026

    My favorite soup. It’s a great basic recipe.

• Irish stew

  • deanna_txdy6i on April 04, 2026

    Simple recipe, delicious results.

• Mexican chicken, corn, and bean tortilla soup

  • clkandel on November 04, 2019

    Very tasty. I used less chicken and increased the spices, veg, and beans. I didn't have zucchini so I added swiss chard for some green.

• Brunswick stew

  • leah_drlmj4 on March 19, 2026

    This is absolutely the best version of Brunswick stew I’ve ever made. High on veggies. High on flavor and NO KETCHUP. Love it!

• Manhattan clam chowder

  • deanna_txdy6i on April 04, 2026

    Pretty good!

• Mexican seafood soup

  • sheila_4posgp on April 14, 2026

    Very tasty and quick. My family likes spicy food., so I added a little bit of spicy V-8, puréed the chiles and used cod for the fish. Will definitely again.

• San Francisco cioppino

  • deanna_txdy6i on April 04, 2026

    This one is really tasty. I use 1/4tsp fennel seeds if I don’t have a bulb of fennel.

• Mushroom, barley, and spinach soup

  • clkandel on October 18, 2019

    I didn't have a fresh red pepper, so I used jarred roasted red peppers. Not the same texture, but still a great taste.

• Coburg Inn beer cheese soup

  • averythingcooks on January 13, 2024

    I copied this recipe out of a friend's book years ago. Rich with a mirepoix sauteed in LOTS of butter, both sharp cheddar + parmesan and of course beer, it is the house favourite for a "treat ourselves" pot of soup. I do add 2 things....a big handful of chopped ham and several shots of hot sauce (to taste).
