Soup Season is Here!

As the cold months set in, warm up with hearty, nutrient-rich soup! We’ve gathered our most popular, simple to make soup recipes packed with immune-boosting ingredients that’ll help keep you healthy and cozy all fall and winter long.

Bean Soups

Sardinian Minestrone, a soup often enjoyed by centenarians, is a delicious and hearty option for lunch. This time of year, we’re loving the flavors of Pumpkin and White Bean Soup, or for a spicy twist, Jalapeño Pumpkin Soup. You also can’t go wrong with a classic Black Bean Soup or a flavorful Three-Bean Vegetable Chili. Another great make-ahead and freezer-friendly option is Tortilla Soup with Red Beans.

Lentil Soups

Lentils are nutritional powerhouses, making them a staple in many centenarians’ diets. Try Easy Lentil and Veggie Soup or Lentil and Chickpea Coconut Curry Soup for quick, healthy meal. We also adore a quick Red Lentil Chili and Smoky Lentil Stew for the cold winter months. Or try some of our other fan favorites such as Green Goddess Soup or Summer Squash Curry Stew.

Veggie Soups

Veggie soups are an amazing way to create a nutritiously dense meal. Try the popular Broccoli Peanut Soup or Okinawan Cream of Mushroom Soup. If you enjoy a bit of heat, might we suggest the Spiced Squash Soup? You can’t go wrong with a hearty Potato Leak Soup or gathering friends and family for Big Batch Adventist Vegetable Soup.
