My doc has ordered me to be on a liquid diet forthe next week due to a hital hernia. Does anybody have any great soup recipes (creamy or broth, nothing chunky) that can help me get through this next week without going nuts. I need to get the proper amount of calories, carbs and fats.

Thanks!

There's a pumpkin curry soup recipe that's posted in this forum that's outstanding - just use as much or as little curry as your tastes allow.

Butternut squash soup is easy.
it's chicken broth, butternut squash (frozen is fine) and blend.

Cream of broccoli soup...
make a roux of flour and olive oil... and stir in pot til it gets lightly browned
add skim milk and chicken broth
add package frozen chopped broccoli (or spinach)
stir til broccoli is cooked
blend
add cheddar cheese if desired

Potato/Leek soup is also quite tasty

Progresso makes an amazing Tomato Basil soup. They were out at the store last time I went, I about cried. I substituted with a Tomato soup by Pacific Natural Foods that was pretty good and they have a lot of "gourmet" type soups.

You have to watch your salt intake with canned soups, but many offer low sodium options now. I also love egg drop soup.

their butternut squash soup is quite tasty too... and it's either them or campbells that has the cardboard container of portobello mushroom soup that's insanely good..
