Using bones will make the soup very delicious especially if you will let it boil for a long time. The longer it is there, the better the soup will taste.
Yeah, bones, but with some meat right, just bones with add nothing to it I am assuming. Either cases, it's always good to make different soups because we eat them everyday and if we always make the same thing it just gets dull, so making a change is positive and healthier many times.
I am not a great fan of soup with meat in, especially meat that has been pureed. I do use meat stock in my soups though as it adds a great flavour. The only soup I really like that has meat in it is pea and ham soup. If I have cooked a gammon joint, I use the left over ham and the stock to a make a delicious, hearty pea and ham soup.
We almost always have meat in our soup. A little bit of meat goes a long way in soups and stews, so these are great dishes to make to stretch your meat budget. I don't think my husband would consider it a "real meal" if the soup didn't have at least some meat in it.
Yep, just soup with no meat sometimes it's too short for dinner, depending on if you had an afternoon snack or not. Either cases, like you say Zyni, many times a soup with meat is indeed a full meal, so we are saving and eating well at the same time.
