Baby it’s cold outside! Let’s curl up with these 20 cozy soup recipes!
Winter is the perfect time of year to curl up with a delicious bowl of piping hot soup.
Whether you pair it with a fresh salad for grazing, a sandwich for dunking, or simply serve it up as a meal all on it’s own, soup is always a great idea!
We’re big on soup around here, especially since so many varieties can be made in big batches once and enjoyed all week long. Most can even be frozen for sketch-free fast food options and soup is ideal for bringing along as a work lunch.
