[quote=Anonymous]I think that soup seems delicious.

I have super active boys who eat a ton of food, and gravitate towards things that are high protein.  Just soup, even a rich high protein soup like that, wouldn't be enough for a meal for them, so I'd add something.  They eat a lot of meat and fish, but don't have a problem with plant based protein, so I'm not sure I'd need whatever I added to be animal protein, but some things I could see serving with that:

Sandwiches of whatever type.

Salad, probably with some protein, which might be parmesan and tofu or chickpea croutons; or hard boiled eggs, bacon and blue cheese; or grilled chicken

Serve it as an appetizer or side with a simple easy protein and another vegetable or fruit like

A spinach feta omelet

Drumsticks and broccoli

or really whatever your family likes.  If I am making a weeknight meal, I tend to only do one complicated thing.  So, if I was making that yummy soup, then the other things would be things like a piece of salmon I threw under the broiler and a chopped up cucumber, or some scrambled eggs and microwaved broccoli, or rotisserie chicken and a handful of cherry tomatoes.  Something that requires almost no work. [/quote]
