My Favorite Cold Weather Soups (GF Versions Included) is a fabulous list of heart-warming, steamy, and delicious soups.
No matter whether you’re feeding your immediate family or a whole room full of guests, soup really does make a great meal. In addition, my family generally does love a wide variety of soups! Yeah, we are the weird people that eat soup all year round… even during the hot summer. Why? Because it’s easy, loaded with healthy veggies, and oh, so yummy!

Classic Chili
We love chili and eat it all year! This is one of my children’s favorite meals (which is why I cook this so often). We like to eat Simple and Easy Crockpot Chili similar to nachos by topping it with sour cream and cheddar cheese and eating it with tortilla chips.
Benny’s Famous Sweet and Spicy Crockpot Chili
Right along with Classic Chili, is a steamy, hot bowl of Benny’s Famous Sweet and Spicy Crockpot Chili! This scrumptious chili recipe isn’t your average chili either.

Loaded Baked Potato Soup A.K.A. Bacon Soup
This soup is so good! It would be really unfair and mean of me not to share it with you. We made this soup last night and it smelled AAAHHHmazing! And it tasted AAAHHHmazing!
Now, this soup is called Loaded Baked Potato Soup… because it is really similar to a loaded baked potato soup…after all, it has the potatoes, the green onion, the cheese. But we call it Bacon Soup…because of the BACON!
Old-Fashioned Vegetable Soup
This delicious vegetable soup is preservative-free and gluten-free. Made the good old-fashioned way, just like grandma used to do. Scrumptious Old Fashioned Vegetable Soup always seems to be a winner! (Psst, for a fast and easy meal, simply heat up any leftovers later in the week!)
Cabbage Roll Soup
My oldest brother, Isaac, is pretty adventurous when it comes to cooking and food in general. He loves trying new things and he loves coming up with unique and/or new recipes. The family likes to give him a hard time for liking weird things, but honestly, his creations are amazing!! A few weeks ago he told me about a new soup he had created called, Cabbage Roll Soup. Oh my goodness… I can’t begin to tell you how lip-smacking good this soup really is!
Copy Cat Olive Garden’s Pasta e Fagioli
This Copy Cat Olive Garden’s Pasta e Fagioli has all kinds of fantastic ingredients such as yummy veggies, tomatoes, pasta, beans, and ground beef. The flavors remind me of a combination of an Italian pasta dish and chili soup. So, so good!

One of the most popular on the lists of our favorite cold-weather soups is chicken soup. Everyone needs this All-Natural Chicken Noodle Soup for those days when you’re feeling under the weather. A bowl of chicken noodle soup tastes amazing on a cold day, even when you’re not sick!
Instant Pot Chicken Chili
The other night for supper I told my family we had a chicken that needed to be cooked. No one could come up with a great idea of what to do with it. I said I wanted it to be fast, easy, healthy, and flipping delicious!!! Then we all laughed and laughed because that sort of idea didn’t really exist.
UNTIL NOW!
Thanks to my Instant Pot, it’s super quick and easy to make Instant Pot Chicken Chili (and I only have one pot to wash afterward)! If you do not own an Instant Pot you can make this on the stovetop.

Cheeseburger Soup
Yet another on our list of favorite cold-weather soups is Cheeseburger Soup. It seems that everyone loves Cheeseburger Soup and it’s so easy to make. This soup brings back fond memories of childhood. This is one of those recipes that my mom made often and now I’m making it for my children. Instead of using ground beef try using sausage and toss in a few veggies.
