5 Hearty Soups to Warm You Up Today

The only good thing about a cold and blustery rainy winter day is that it could be snowing! We're hunkering down in front of the proverbial fire with a nice warm bowl of soup, and here are some of our all time FT faves. Just between friends, double your batch and freeze some for a future soup emergency- you never know!

1. Creamy Tomato Vegetable Soup By Brynie Greisman
   
   Soup is an excellent food for those watching their waistlines, and as usual, anything coming out of Brynie's kitchen manages to be both healthful and taste amazing. This smooth, fat-free soup will free up all the flex calories on your meal plan, and that means more room for chocolate!
   
    
   
   
2. Velvety Winter Soup By Rivky Kleiman
   
   ⁠⁠⁠We love a good blended soup that doesn't leave the kids (or boys, or husbands... you get it) asking too many questions about what vegetables are actually inside. Let them lick their plates clean before you show them the recipe! 
   
   
   
   
   
3. Creamless Cream of Chicken Soup By Chanie Nayman
   
   Chicken soup is hailed as the Jewish cure-all, and we agree wholeheartedly with that statement. But sometimes we just need an extra level or creamy deliciousness to kick this staple up a couple of notches!
   
   
   
   
4. Chinese Restuarant Style Hot and Sour Soup By Chanie Nayman
   
   We're getting nostalgic about the good old fashioned Chinese takeout we grew up on, and a little hot and sour soup always takes us right back! This soup is perfect for that extra little zip your dinner may have been missing lately.
   
    
   
   
5. Crispy Beef Fry Butternut Squash Soup By Estee Kafra
   
   Newsflash- pastrami on everything is still a thing. And while we are always up for a good pastrami on avocado toast with runny egg, like any good foodie, sometimes we like a little balance We're totally loving hearty, smoky sweet rendition of the trend, and we're not even sorry! Between the pastrami, maple syrup and soy sauce, nobody will be left disappointed.
