I am DROOLING here, wanting to try each and every one of your soup recipes. However, my family has grown from 3 to 7-9, as my daughter and her kids have moved back home. I'm just wondering how many each recipe serves? Please advise. Thanks.

Katy,

You must be a fellow soup lover! It is hard for me to determine how much soup is enough. Each of these soup recipes should serve between 6-8 people, if you are using them as the main dish. If the children are teenagers and love soup they will definitely eat more.

Cream soups usually are richer and therefore require a smaller amount to satisfy, whereas, minestrone and chicken noodle are more in the "all you can eat category." You can always freeze leftovers, although I am not crazy about broccoli cheese done this way.

Thanks for writing in. Soup is a great way to fill up a bunch of hungry kids, and by the way... Happy Dancing Katy!

My Best,

Jeanne
