Soup as a main?

[Ahurani]

I have just made DP the nicest soup.. Pumpkin, onion and potato..

He just said to me

Is that the entree?

Im like uh...no Im not going to make 3 meals (Im having spaghetti that he wont eat)

Hes like there is NO MEAT IN IT...

I have some nice crusty bread to go with it

Now I feel because I was really excited for him to have it because it looks so nice

Would you have that only as a main??

[Rouge]

Pfft. Soup is so a main. And it doesn't have to have meat in it to make it a main. Tell him if he wants a 3 course meal he can do two courses

[Eenee]

DH and I have pumpkin soup as a main all the time (well not all the time but you know what I mean).

[AliBaby]

I'd say as long as its served with some nice crusty bread then it is a main. Tell him if he wants a main he can have another bowl of soup, oh and dessert is soup as well!

We have soup at least once a week as a main in my house....

[FabFiona]

Totally a main. Meat does not make a main meal.

In my house if DH complains then he makes his own.

We often have soup as a main, but always always add lentils or split peas, to thicken it up, make it more hearty and add more protein.
Vegans, man! Always with the lentils.

[sloane]

definitely a main. if i'm doing soup as a main i'll always have bread & often will make something for dessert as well.

lol he wouldn't last in this house! We only have meat meals a few times per week....DH protested initially....going hungry is a good incentive though.

I have just made DP the nicest soup.. Pumpkin, onion and potato..

that's what we are having for dinner! with toast.

yeah, definitely a main, nothing like soup on a Sunday night with some cheese on toast....I made the yummiest cream of cauliflower the other day for main.....the one I do alot of is a chicken, vege and noodle soup (ok it's got meat in)....pumpkin is so filling for a main, yummo.

Kids and I eat soup as a main and only meal all the time, Hubby use to as well until he had his jaw reconstructed and had to live on watered down soupy type meals from a syringe (mouth wired shut) for months on end lol

But I do think thicker pumpkin, potato type soups are more filling as well

[Pandora]

yeah, definitely a main, nothing like soup on a Sunday night with some cheese on toast...

We used to have that for dinner most weeks growing up. DH won't he is a real PITA with meals and very much of the opinion that soups not a main.

[PumpkinZulu]

Yeah I agree, soup is so a main...lol, if having meat in it was what qualified a main in this household, we'd only be having mains maybe three times a week Tofu burgers for us tonight hehe

[Ahurani]

Thanks everyone hehe

I would so eat soup as a main. DP ate it but I think it killed him bahahaahaha

My spaghetti was nice :P
