30 Healthy Soup Recipes for Fall and Winter

False Feature-02

There is something about fall that makes me crave hearty meals. As soon as the weather starts to cool, you’ll find me in my kitchen whipping up my favorite soup and stew recipes. Soups are a simple way to get in a whole bunch of vegetables and fiber, whether you use them as an appetizer or a main course. I have a few of my own go-to’s, like my mom’s famous chili and an easy white bean vegetable soup I could make in my sleep, but I love to find new recipes too. So as we wind up fall and approach more cool winter nights, I’m sharing 30 soup and stew recipes to get those menu planning juices flowing. Enjoy!
