A simmering pot that feeds the appetite and restores the soul. Soups are such a classic comfort food that I love.
Long gone is any fall warmth. Luckily for you, we have a great list of warm soups that will brightly any long, cold winter day. Since winter usually means that once work is done for the day, it’s time to go home because not much sunlight left. After a really long day, all I long for is something simple to bake and prepare for dinner. I love the convenience of a one-dish meal simmering on the stove top. Sometimes, I use what vegetables and poultry I have left in the refrigerator to determine what I want to cook in the evening. Sometimes, I stock up on soup bases so when I’ve had a long day and am hungry, I have everything I need without having to run to the grocery store. Other times, it’s a nice afternoon and I love to smell the slow cooker all day on a Saturday. Here are 20 plus soups and stews that are sure to please any size crowd or family. Soups can be served alone or with something on the side. I do occasionally like to bake corn bread, pita and/or flat bread served with crackers or tortilla chips.
