Winter Soups

We had a super cold winter last year; the temperatures dipped to -45C and stayed there for days on end and resulted in school/work being cancelled for the week and astronomical heating bills! We holed up at home and tried to stay warm; one way we did that was to enjoy yummy soups and stews. To keep you warm this winter try out a few of the recipes we loved! 

1. Easy Slow Cooker White Chicken Chilli
Why: I love using my crock pot; and best of all my husband enjoyed this recipe. It made A LOT so I was able to have freezer meals for later.

2. Loaded Baked Potato Soup
Why: The brain behind, damndelicious.com describes this soup as, “oh-so-creamy and rich, carb-loaded, cheesy, bacony, comforting, cozy soup”…need I say more?!?!

3. Black Bean Beef Taco Soup
Why: The perfect winter time twist on “Taco Tuesday” Plus, there is something super fun about adding toppings to soup in my opinion.

4. Butternut Squash Soup
Why: This soup is very easy to make; one pot in fact! It is creamy and for those of you who are dairy free and/or vegan this is a great recipe for you. Plus, I can make use of the squash I grew.

5. Veggie Tortellini Soup
Why: This is one of the Pioneer Woman’s “Under 20” recipes; it is hearty and comforting; it reminds me of having tomato and grilled cheese when I was young.
