France C
“This zucchini soup is so rich and creamy that you won’t believe there’s no cream added,” says recipe creator Julia L. “It’s easy to make and bursting with flavor, but your guests will think you’ve been cooking all day! Delicious hot or chilled.”
Menudo
“This dish takes a while to prepare and to cook but it is worth it,” says recipe creator ksalinas. “I learned this on my own and my husband, who is Mexican, loves it. It will please the most avid Mexican food lover.”
Fresh Pea Soup
“This soup is known in France as Potage Saint-Germain, a name that comes from a suburb of Paris where peas used to be cultivated in market gardens,” says recipe creator Lizz C. “If fresh peas are not available, use frozen peas, but thaw and rinse them before use. Croutons make an excellent garnish!”
Easy Cheesy Cream of Broccoli Soup
“This is a fast but delicious soup recipe for those who like broccoli soup but don’t like the canned version,” says recipe creator Keli Oelerich. “It’s simply made by combining broccoli, cream of mushroom soup, milk, and cheese.”
Asparagus Soup in Seconds
“Made with canned asparagus, this soup is easy, quick, and delicious! Just be sure to use good-quality canned asparagus and you can’t go wrong,” says recipe creator big surprise. “The milk and butter are optional, as the soup is surprisingly rich without them.”
Aaahh! Potato Soup

“This is the MOST simple and delicious potato soup recipe ever! Creamy and cheesy!” says recipe creator Raymond Cooper. “Top with shredded cheese (your favorite kind), chopped scallions and cooked bacon bits.”
Carrot and Coriander Soup
“I learned to make this soup after living in the United Kingdom for 10 years,” says recipe creator VCOLLO. “This soup is incredibly simple to make with just a few ingredients. Coriander is the British word for cilantro, which gives this soup a smooth flavor.”
Curried Carrot Soup
“Quick, easy, and light,” says recipe creator Doug Matthews. “Plus, it’s the only way to get my niece to eat carrots.”
Easy Vegetable Beef Soup with Ground Beef
“Simple! Brown the meat, and throw it all together into one pot,” says recipe creator Pam. “Serve soup with a cake of corn bread or grilled cheese sandwiches on a cold winter night. You will feel warm all over.”
Slow Cooker Chicken and Noodles
“This chicken and noodles recipe made in the crockpot is a wonderfully easy soup to cook while at work or on a busy day,” says recipe creator KathyLP. “It can be made more soupy with added broth, or sometimes I like to thicken the liquid with a little water and cornstarch mixture and let it cook until thickened. Then, it is good served over mashed potatoes!”
Curried Zucchini Soup
“This recipe is really great, quick and easy and it doesn’t call for a bunch of ingredients to go out and buy,” says reviewer Bleue. “This recipe is great because it is a basic squash soup so you can use pumpkin, yellow squash, or a different kind of squash if you would like. I highly recommend this!”
Split Pea Soup without Pork
“To make a delicious Pea Soup without all the fat, simply substitute chicken stock for most of the liquid in your favorite recipe! The soup will cook down and be flavorful, though mild in taste,” says recipe creator Sandy Albanese. “My family loves this substitute!”
Moroccan Semolina Soup with Milk, Anise Seeds, and Honey
“This simple Moroccan soup is easy to prepare and can be served in the evening or as a breakfast porridge,” says recipe creator Wendy E Boles. “Serve warm, garnished with cinnamon, with honey for sweetening on the side.”
Easy and Super Delicious Black Bean Soup

Super Easy Chicken and Dumplings

“My whole family loves this recipe,” says reviewer Denise Datzko Smith. “It is amazing that something so simple can be so incredibly delicious! This is comfort food at its best.”
Newfoundland-Style Pea Soup
“I love any recipe that helps me recreate that back home feeling, and salt beef is always a winner. For those that don’t know of it, it is like corned beef (and cabbage) brisket,” says reviewer Lynn Dawe. “Salt beef is sold as ‘Naval beef’ in 5 and 10 lb plastic tubs filled with brined chunks of beef in the chilled grocery section. Make sure you soak it well for a number of hours to remove the salt (change the water mid way if you really want to remove all salt). I prefer it a bit salty, because the way my mother would always cook it.”
Garbanzo Bean Soup
“This is a recipe that I picked up in Italy a few years ago. Being that I’m not a soup fan, I was somewhat hesitant,” says recipe submitter JENYRUT. “But this thick and hearty soup quickly won my praise. It will quickly become a favorite recipe!”
Poor Irish Soup
“I invented this soup when all I had was a cabbage and potatoes,” says recipe creator SStephan. “It’s very basic and is flexible to your tastes.”
Best Soup This Side Of The Mississippi
“This is a black-eyed pea soup. My mother’s recipe—best soup this side of the Mississippi,” says recipe submitter Jen Hamilton.
