Thanks, V8 is my current "soup" with added celery and chili!
I don't really want meat in the soup and it must be really lite. V8 is a good shortcut as well as organic beetroot juice with added spices and vinegar for a cheats Barszcz! It you want to try it I posted a recipe for Barszcz.
If you have any more combo's please tell me
I just want lite soups more as a savoury drink since I don't really like sweet things and eating hearty thick soups all day won't be a good thing!
Try V-8 with some chunky salsa, seasoned like a Bloody Mary for a quick chunky vegetable gazpacho.
Add some cold cooked shrimp for a real treat.
Someone here at DC came up with the idea of the shrimp. It was awesome!
For a light winter soup, take a look at 'bisques'. Usually they're made with shellfish like lobster, shrimp, crab and crawfish, and as they're strained, are fairly light. but there are also all kinds of recipes for veggie bisques that would be even lighter.
Chowders are another category of soups that can be made 'light'.

I also like to take a spicy stock, heat it, then put out some chifonade of some kind of green (iceberg, romaine, spinach, chard), some chopped tomato, chives or thin sliced green onions, maybe some shaved, cooked meat or small shrimp, even maybe some canned sliced mushrooms or artichoke hearts. Then we build our own soup. Come to think of it, I haven't done that yet this summer.
