These easy German soup recipes teach how to make soup with that traditional German taste.
Quickly simmer a pot of soup to enjoy on a cold, winter's evening. Not just any soup, but the kind Germans call "Eintopf". That means a "one-pot" meal. Easy to make, easy to clean up, very economical, and very, very delicious.
Remember now, these are easy versions of the originals. If you had a couple of hours, you could make a batch of home-made broth.
These alternative recipes use what you probably already have in your fridge or freezer, some water, and spices. That's it! There are some hints to make some of these quick recipes even quicker.
How about a really quick version of homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup (shown above) that uses things you already have in your cupboard. Not only is it inexpensive, but good enough for company, and easy enough to make for your own quick lunch.
All you need to round out the meal, such as the Slow Cooker Split Pea Soup or Erbsensuppe in German (above) would be a green salad and perhaps a piece of German bread.
So, go ahead. Make up a pot of Green Bean Soup (above). Or simmer a pot of Red Lentil Soup. The leftovers are great the next day. Or freeze it for an extra, extra quick meal next week. Choose a new German Soup each week and find your family's favorite. My favorite? Chunky Potato Soup shown at the top! Subscribe to our free Quick Fix ezine filled with recipes, updates, etc.
