(Little nod to the Soup Nazi there…)
Scares, sweaters and soups. Was there ever a better holiday trio? Here are ten soups I’ll be making as soon as the heat breaks AGAIN:
Creamy Roasted Cauliflower Soup. Lemon juice adds brightness while crushed red pepper adds a touch of heat. Toasted nuts bring a bit of crunch to this creamy soup. Yum.
One Pot Chicken and Cabbage Soup. Sherry vinegar adds a touch of brightness and pairs well with the medley of vegetables. Serve with crusty bread.
Meatball Soup. My mom made a version of this, so it will always remind me of coming in from the snow. She served it with warm blueberry muffins for some reason, so I have to make blueberry muffins when I make this. But crusty rolls work too. So easy, peasy and ‘licious.
Sausage Potato Soup. Lawdie. So good. Speaks for itself.
Escarole and Little Meatball Soup. Yeah, I’m Italian, what of it? This recipe was famous in my house, and it’s so easy that I find it hard to understand why people buy soup in cans. Serve with warm rolls, please, you peasants. JK!
Creamy Pumpkin Soup. I am NOT a fan of pumpkin soup, or squash soup, or cucumber soup, etc. But far be it from me to deny you the pleasure. So go for it, just leave me out of it.
Cream of Broccoli Soup. In these parts we fancy our cream of broccoli soup not pureed and thin, but with big chunks of broccoli, cheese and bread. Only way to go. Naysayers nay.
Split Pea Soup. I don’t like peas either, silly. Split pea soup is a whole different animal, and so easy. I’m a fan.
Pasta Fagioli. You knew it was coming. My own personal recipe is different, but this is a good one to share. I’m simply not ready to share mine, not yet. One day.
Cabbage Soup With Ginger. The ginger and turmeric have great hydrating and health benefits, and it’s so good on a chilly day.
