Winter’s Cozy Comfort: Hearty Soups to Warm Your Soul

As the cold winter nights draw in, there’s nothing quite like a warm, comforting bowl of soup to lift your spirits. At our company, we recently had a lively discussion about the best soups to get us through the chilly winter weeknights. Our team shared their favorite recipes, and we’re excited to share them with you!

Spiced Chickpea Stew With Coconut and Turmeric

Lauren Ver Hage, our Co-Founder and Graphic Designer, swears by Allison Roman’s infamous “Stew” recipe. This flavorful stew is a game-changer, with its rich coconut and turmeric flavors. Serve it over brown rice for a filling meal.

Chicken and Pumpkin Dumpling Soup

Lauren’s second favorite is a life-changing soup that combines the comfort of soup with the joy of baking bread-based treats. The pumpkin dumplings add an incredible texture and taste, making this soup a must-try.

A Simple Curried Tomato Soup

This easy-to-make soup won Lauren’s heart, with its simplicity and versatility. Add your favorite toppings, such as toasted almonds, sour cream, and fried herbs, for a delicious and satisfying meal.

Slow-Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup

Rachel Samara, our Social Media Manager, recommends this slow-cooker recipe for a lazy weekend afternoon. With just the right amount of spice, you can customize it to your taste. Plus, there’s cheese involved – what’s not to love?

Classic Chicken Soup

Emmanuela Isichei, our Administrative Coordinator, sticks to a classic – chicken noodle soup. You can’t go wrong with this old-fashioned comfort food.

Pasta e Fagioli

Holly Trantham, our Head of Content, is a fan of this Italian-inspired soup. With its comforting combination of pasta, beans, kale, and carrots, it’s a healthy and tasty option. Serve it with crusty bread for a cozy dinner.

African Peanut Stew

Chelsea Fagan, our CEO, has been making this stew since her college days. It’s easy, flavorful, and packed with nutrients. Serve it with a dollop of sour cream for an added treat.

Zuppa Toscana

Chelsea’s all-time favorite is Zuppa Toscana, which she makes with white beans and extra crushed red pepper. For a spicy kick, substitute the bacon with Italian sausage.

10-Spice Vegetable Soup

Annie Atherton, our COO, loves this nutrient-packed soup. With its blend of spices and vegetables, it’s a healthy and satisfying option. Use sweet potatoes instead of squash for a quicker prep time.

Pho

Monica Killblane, our Sales & Partnerships Manager, may not be a soup maker, but she’s a pho enthusiast. This Vietnamese noodle soup has a healing effect, perfect for curing colds and hangovers.
