Tonight, I magically turned six quarts of my Lentil Rosemary soup into six OTHER quarts of soup by attending a Soup Swap in my neighborhood.
As a bonus gift with my soup, I included the bread recipe I posted here, which makes just about any soup into a hearty meal.
My 6 quarts of lentil soup became one quart each of French Onion soup, Cream of Wild Mushroom soup, meaty chili, Mushroom and Barley soup, Beer, Cheese and Bacon soup, and Lively Up Yourself Lentil soup. And I made a bunch of new friends at the same time.
Magic!
What a great idea. I am a big soup fan too – but not that stuff you buy in a can! I have a tendency to cook too much at one time (6 continuous days of the same soup is a bit much) but a soup swap sounds like a great solution. Thanks.
Yes! You’ve hit on the beauty of soup swap–all the ease of making one soup with all the variety you trade it for. If you do hold a soup swap, you can post it on the Soup Swap Facebook page, it’s fun to see them happening all over the country! http://www.facebook.com/pages/Soup-Swap/162887987065393
Great idea! I will have to try this with my friends!
