Our Best Soup Recipes

Whether you’re a fan of comforting potato soup, creamy tomato soup, old-fashioned chicken noodle or something healthy and packed with vegetables, there’s truly no better way to warm up on a chilly day than with a bowl of homemade soup. Many can be made with very little fuss in your slow-cooker or Instant Pot—and stored in the freezer for whenever you need a quick and satisfying meal—making soup one of our go-to dishes year-round. Looking for a few recipes to get you started? We’ve got plenty right here (from bean soups to chowders), starting with an easy chicken soup that is filled with fresh homemade egg noodles. The key is to make a quick 5-ingredient pasta dough and then simply grate it directly into store-bought chicken broth using a box grater. Rounded out with some veg and shredded rotisserie chicken, it’s a perfect dinner.
