We’ll admit to enjoying soup year round, but come wintertime? There’s nothing we crave more than a hot, steaming bowl. We’re not picky either. Chilis, stews, chowders, creamy soups…we love them ALL, so we rounded up our best and brightest for inspiration all season long. From easy soups to multi-day projects (hi, ramen), there’s something here for everyone and every occasion. Soup’s on!
Let’s start with the classics. When we’re sick or feeling down, nothing hits like chicken noodle, so we tested ours over and over to get it perfect. Other comforting go-tos include our minestrone, our Italian wedding soup, our beef stew, our pozole, and our French onion soup. Let us know in the comments below what your go-to is when you’re feeling under the weather.
Feeling a little bored of your standbys? Not to worry, we’ve got tons of innovative soups here that’ll perk you right up come dinnertime. Try turning your favorite sandwich into a soup, like we did in our Philly cheesesteak soup or our meatball sub soup; by adding innovative flavors in, like in our gochujang white chicken chili or our chicken spinach artichoke soup; or taking inspiration from your family’s other go-to dinners, like we did in our cabbage roll soup or our chicken Parm soup. Best part about these soup recipes? There is a TON of wiggle room to make them your own. Get creative and try adding in different proteins, different noodles, different greens…soup can pretty much handle it all.
Appliance-heads, we didn’t forget about you either. We’ve included some of our favorite slow-cooker and Instant pot soups here too, like our slow-cooker chicken tortilla soup, our Instant Pot pho, and our slow cooker creamy gnocchi soup.
You know what goes well with soup? Salads and sandwiches! Check out our favorite winter salads, our best , and our top hearty dinner sandwiches to help round out your meals.
