Whether used as a chunky soup with a light broth, or blended into satiny smoothness, it's hard to go wrong choosing these two basic ingredients. Butternut squash, a winter squash with a deep, sweet flavor much like pumpkin or sweet potato, provides plentiful vitamins and minerals along with carotenes. Chickpeas, also known as ceci beans or garbanzos, provide amino acids to built proteins, plenty of fiber, and an appealing texture.

Because the basic soup is so flexible and easily adjusted there are still more ways you can play with the recipe. Imagine a mildly sweet "pumpkin pie" soup seasoned with pumpkin seasoning. Consider also the rich flavor of squash enhanced by roasting or grilling: by substituting three cups of mashed roast squash or grilled squash the flavor of the soup shifts into darker, deeper tones, with the grilled squash offering a trace of smoky mystery. The same soup blended to smooth bisque consistency garnished with kernels of leftover grilled corn and a spoon of pico de gallo salsa offers a Tex-Mex touch to this soup.
Whether you aim for a summery soup of grilled squash or the warm autumn shimmer of poultry seasoning and cream, the squash and chickpea base offers a superb canvas for creative cooking.

When they made the soup it tasted good to everyone they feed it too.

Either way it would work, depends on how creative you are. This part is always the main, so make sure that you prepare and cook the chicken breasts very well. After you have cooked the chicken part, it’s time for the next step.

Slow cookers are designed in such a way that there is little or no room for evaporation. To avoid ending up with soupy or soggy meals, keep added liquids to a minimum.

The paintings have minor variations in the names that indicate the flavor of each soup. The majority of these are written with red letters; however, four varieties have additional black letters, like the “Clam Chowder” painting that says “Manhattan Style” in black letter under the name. The “Beef” flavor can also has black letters indicating that it is made “With Vegetables and Barley”, while the “Scotch Broth” has black letters that say “A Hearty Soup”, and the “Minestrone” can has “Italian-Style Vegetable Soup” also written in this color.
