Gently saute some onion in a pan then add some stock and place it some small diced potato and boil until the potato is soft. You can also add leeks or celery if you like.
Add a large bunch of watercress and leave to simmer for 5/10 mins, season to taste then stick in a blender.
Or...
You could make some light chicken stock with a stock cube, flavour with some herbs and some garlic to taste.
Cut up some noodles into tiny pieces and cook them in the stock. You could also add some fine diced veg such as carrot and potato or onion.
Also place in some cooked chicken pieces.
Garnish with some fresh chopped spring onion.
If you want the soup thicker then get some cornflour and mix a little with a bit of water then stir into the mixture, do this bit by bit and stir well, do it gradually until it's the consistency you want.
You can also do this with beef stock and can mix and match the meat, pasta and veg as you get more adventurous.

Tomato and Veg soup. No measuring - just use whatever veg you happen to have going!
Dry fry (or use Fry Light spray) some onion and garlic with some chilli powder until softening, add some tomato puree and then a pint of vegetable stock and then carrots, leeks, peas, potatoes etc etc. Leave to simmer for 15 or so minutes, then add a can of chopped tomatoes and a good splash of worcestershire sauce. Season to taste. I tend to go through my cupboard and just add a pinch of this and a splash of that until the taste is just right.
Very low fat though.

I made this soup on Saturday:
750g sweet potato (cut into chunks)
1.5 litres vegetable stock
2 bulbs of garlic
Cut the tops off the garlic bulbs, then wrap in foil and roast in a pre-heated oven (180 C) until tender (20-30 mins depending on size). Meanwhile, simmer the sweet potato in the stock until tender, then puree in a blender. Once the garlic is cool enough to handle, squeeze the flesh into the puree and blend once more.
It was delicious and completely fat-free - enjoy!

Yes - sorry. I don't mind soups with meat in but my gf doesn't and I make it for both of us so I have to steer clear of meat unless I can cleverly disguise it (she's not veggie - just doesn't like the idea of meat in soup, so if she can't see it it's ok lol).
Neither of us like fish.
I guess we like any sort of soup with veg, beans, noodles, pasta, chick peas, etc.
The most important thing is that we have these soups as our meal during the day (ie. breakfast then soups then dinner on an evening) without any accompaniment (ie. bread - cos I can't eat it without butter!) so the more substantial & filling (rather than a watery) they are, the better.

1 (14 ounce) can chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

With slotted spoon, remove 2 cups of the bean and vegetable mixture from soup and set aside.
In blender at low speed, blend remaining soup in small batches until smooth, (it helps to remove the center piece of the blender lid to allow steam to escape.) Once blended pour soup back into stock pot and stir in reserved beans.
Bring to a boil, occasionally stirring. Stir in spinach and cook 1 minute or until spinach is wilted. Stir in lemon juice and remove from heat and serve with fresh grated Parmesan cheese on top.
