Chicken Tortilla Soup

Got a random chicken lying around? No? Well, that’s ok. Cook this Spatchcock chicken recipe then come back and make soup with the leftovers! Otherwise you can use a rotisserie chicken, leftover chicken strips, or whatever other chicken you’ve got hanging out in the fridge begging to be used before it takes a turn for…

Cheeseburger Soup

You know those days when you really want to eat a burger and fries, but don’t want the calories? This soup is the perfect solution. It’s hearty, filling, has red meat and potatoes, but won’t clog up the precious vessels that keep the ol’ ticker ticking. It’s super pliable – meaning – use whatever veggies…

White Bean Soup with Roasted Broccoli, Cheddar and Caramelized Onions

When the weather is crummy and comfort food is desired, but you don’t necessarily want to gorge yourself on burgers and fries, this recipe is perfect. Its creamy, slightly heavy (but still light!), and delicious. There’s plenty of protein from the beans and cheese, with tons of flavor from the broccoli and garlic. The onions…

Lobster Stock

We like to say that chicken broth makes the world go ’round in this family. While that’s true and hands down one of the most used items in my kitchen, its nice to change it up a bit. Enter Lobster stock. Just as easy to make but with a much short shelf life. It’s perfect…

Browned Butter Pumpkin Soup

Luscious – that’s the adjective I came up with to describe this soup. Creamy, velvety, decadent. It’s like a trip to the palace without all the pomp and circumstance. The addition of pure maple syrup at the end just pumps up the flavor to knock your tiara off. Seriously – that’s how good this soup…

Butternut Squash Puree with Black Garlic

Velvety smooth sauce that can double (or triple) as soup, filling or myriad other options? Yes please! Not only did I use this to stuff ravioli with, but I also added it to the pan juices of a red wine braised short rib dish to make a perfect pour over sauce. 1 whole Butternut Squash…

Lasagna Soup

Is there anything more comforting that a steaming bowl of yummy goodness on a cold night? I don’t think so. Yesterday was the first super cold evening we’ve had this year, and man did I have a hankering for Lasagna Soup. Luckily, I had all the ingredients and the fam was happy to indulge my…

Ramen Eggs

I have always loved soft-boiled eggs. They are my absolutely favorite way to eat eggs – they’re warm, soft and that runny yolk? Divine. My grandparents would make them for me whenever we stayed with them, because I did not like the hard boiled eggs they ate. Ick. I have since changed my tune, but…

Roasted Potato Soup

Three weeks into the new year – and its hard to believe 2023 is off to such a fast start. Busy days and weeks call for quick and easy meals whenever possible. This includes making them, and also prepping so you can pull something out of the freezer when you’re running behind or just too…

Broccoli Cheddar Soup

I never used to like Broccoli Cheddar soup. I liked broccoli, and I loved cheese but the two should never have met. Fast forward a few decades and my tastes (and my palate!) have changed – for the better I think. Now, you better believe this broccoli cheddar soup is one of my go-tos when…
