25 BEST Soup Recipes

 When the cold weather hits, I crave a good bowl of soup. Read on to find easy and delicious soup recipes, I'll be making all winter long!

The cold weather has finally made it's way to Canada. When fall hits and the temperatures start to drop, I crave the warmth only soup can provide. It soothes my soul, warms me up from the inside out and is a delicious way to get some healthy veggies into my kids! 

There's nothing better than simmering a soup on the stove, to cure what ails you. There's just something therapeutic about making stock, adding veggies and herbs and letting it simmer until it becomes liquid perfection. Not to mention, soups go a long way and are very budget friendly. 

Before I share some of my favourite soups, I'd like to share a few tips to use when making soup at home. 

• Don't forget to taste as you go and season as needed. Veggies and pasta need salt, but not all stocks are seasoned the same. So make sure you taste as you go and add salt and pepper if needed. If your soup ends up too salty, peel a potato and throw it into your soup to simmer, until tender. The potato will soak up some of the salt!
• Soup is always better the second day (the flavours get to meld together), so don't be scared of making a BIG batch of soup! Leftovers are delicious and can come in handy, on nights you're too tired to cook.
• Get creative with what you like! I'm not a big basil fan, so when I make soup, I use the amount I know I'll be ok with. If you want to add extra spices and herbs, do it! Love a good drizzle of olive oil or truffle oil on your soup before eating it? I say heck YES, give it a go! Cooking should be a way to express yourself, so get creative!
