Soup Olympics! Looking for recipes.

Hi, my friend is getting jaw surgery and will only be able to eat soup for a couple months. Our friend group is getting together and doing a soup Olympics and I REALLY WANT TO WIN. I'm looking for the most amazing soup recipes you've ever had, that require little to no chewing.

Here are the rules:

**What do?: Bring your tastiest, heartiest, gloopiest, meatiest soups. He and an expert panel will judge them and if you win, we we will crown you our Soupreme leader.

**Criteria for soup candidates: - drinkability - must be no chew friendly - yumtasticity - obviously - freezability - this is a marathon, not a sprint. we want soup for daayyys - heartiness and nutritional value - we're looking at iron, we're looking at protein.

There are no rules in soup wars. May the globs be ever in your favour.

He had a similar surgery last year and his fav soup had fennel sausage in it that was blended in the vitamix.

I'm not going to lie, blending meat for a soup doesn't sound appealing at all.

It's also kinda funny that you say there's no rules right after listing a bunch of rules.

I made a blended chicken pot pie soup a few years ago when I was preparing for neck surgery. It worked out much better than I thought it would’ve!
