Make a Spot Prawn and chorizo chowder. With fennel, tarragon and ouzo you get a lovely flavour that entices. Potatoes and cream and yum.

sorrel soup, served either hot or cold. Julia Child had a good recipe for cream of sorrel soup. Would go well in a spring menu including salmon and rhubarb.

This red lentil soup is a great choice, and is filled with spring/summer flavors: http://www.healthline.com/health-recipes/allergy-friendly-curried-red-lentil-soup

And this Fresh Pea Risotto Soup is super simple and can easily be prepared ahead of time: http://www.healthline.com/health-recipes/fresh-pea-risotto-soup

I suppose it depends on what else is being served and what type of soup you're looking for...

To me, spring is about the fresh/green flavor. Here are a few that I've bookmarked and/or made.
