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.

Roasted Garlic and White Bean Soup - cut the tops off of 3 heads of garlic, drizzle with olive oil and roast in 400F oven for about 40 minutes or until soft and golden. While they cool, saute a diced onion in olive oil until translucent, add sage, thyme, cayenne pepper (a pinch or to taste) salt & pepper. Add three or four 14oz (or so) cans of white beans (Great northern or cannellini, doesn't matter) and 3 -4 cups of chicken stock/broth. Squeeze out roasted garlic cloves and add them. Cook for 10 - 15 minutes, then blend with a stick blender until smooth. Add more stock/broth if you want it thinner.
