Crusty bread and Gruyère cheese set this soup apart, not to mention the bold flavor of those caramelized onions. Simple and filling, this aromatic soup will pair perfectly with a cool Sunday evening; if you have leftovers, it'll likely taste even better the following afternoon. Get The Recipe

Chicken Noodle Soup

I confess: I love tons of chunky vegetables in my soups. It doesn't matter what soup it is; I want tons of thick-cut veggies. My husband, however, does not. So we compromise. He gets thinner vegetables, and I overload my soups with them. Ultimate chicken soup is one of my favorite homemade soups to create on a chilly fall day. Hearty, brothy, and oh-so-good, this soup has a lot of tender chicken breast (dark meat works, too), a thick, rich broth, and tons of carrots and celery. Add seasonings you love, a cube of chicken bullion for extra flavor, and serve with freshly baked bread or a nice garlic knot. Get the recipe

Creamy Mushroom Soup

This lovely soup is my mom's favorite; nothing beats the homemade version. The canned version can't beat the rich, bold mushroom flavor and the fullness of heavy whipping cream. You can also use your favorite mushroom variety for the flavor punch you love. This soup pairs with leftover crostini or toasted buttered French bread slices.

Harvest Pumpkin Soup

I love pumpkin desserts. Pumpkin pie and pumpkin rolls are my favorites, and I often make them for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I don't, however, enjoy pumpkin spice-flavored anything. Coffee creamer, no. Latte's with the seasonal essence, no thanks. This beautiful soup is one area where I can enjoy pumpkin without the fake seasoning. This simple soup is a heady mix of heavy cream, pumpkin squash (not from a can), and spices like nutmeg and pepper. Get the recipe

Classic Potato Soup

Canned cream adds heft to this simple soup that you can alter with as many vegetables as you like. I love red potatoes for this recipe as they add flavor, the skins aren't thick, and they pair well with other veggies and ham steaks. As a child, I was not fond of plain soups, but as I've grown, I appreciate the simplicity of a hearty soup like a simple potato. Simple or gusseted up, this soup is comforting on a chilly night.

Yukgaejang: Spicy Korean Beef Soup

I've never made this soup, but many recipes call for shredded beef brisket, water, fernbrake (bracken fiddlehead), bean sprouts, green onions, sesame oil, and Korean chili powder. *If you plan to forage for your fern fiddleheads, study which ones are safe, as most varieties contain carcinogens. Most people knowledgeable in this area subscribe to only eating Ostrich fiddleheads, which are said to taste like a combination of asparagus, green beans, and broccoli.

Broccoli Cheddar Soup

This soup is perfect for the classic bread bowl. The quintessential comfort food, this cheesy broccoli favorite will hit the spot no matter when you decide to serve it, and since you serve it in a bread bowl, the cleanup is even easier. I don't know about you, but easy cleanup is the way to my oldest daughter's heart. Get The Recipe

Pasta Fagioli

The best sort of sweet and salty comes together in this fantastic soup, which couldn't be simpler. Pick up some of your favorite bacon and cook five slices until they're tender—sautee one and a half cups of chopped onions and set aside. Peel and chop two large sweet potatoes and place them in a large saucepan. Sprinkle them with a teaspoon of nutmeg. Pour in four cups of chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil until the potatoes are cooked well and soft. Puree this mixture and add salt and pepper to taste. Stir in two tablespoons of pure Maple syrup and sauteed onions. Serve in your favorite soup bowl or mug. Sprinkle with bacon and your favorite minced herbs.
