Soup is one of my go-to dinners for our family, particularly during the cooler months. There really is nothing better than sitting down at the end of the day to a big bowl of warm, nourishing soup.
I like to cook our soup both using a slow cooker and on the stove top. I love that regardless of whichever method I use, it doesn’t take much effort to place a hearty, healthy and delicious meal on the dinner table.
Now that the cold weather is well and truly here, soup is again making a regular appearance in our house, but I do find myself using the same couple of recipes over and over again. Now, there isn’t anything really wrong with that (especially when everyone enjoys them), however it’s nice to try and introduce the kids (plus my husband!) to different tastes and flavours. To help mix things up a bit, I’ve put together this collection of 21 family-friendly soup recipes to help give us (and now you) some tempting soup recipe inspiration – enjoy!
