Usher in soup season with recipes that call for autumn's most festive flavors and aromas. Loaded with fall produce and warming spices like cinnamon, turmeric, and cumin, these classic fall soup ideas will keep you warm as the temperatures drop.
Butternut Squash Soup with Apple
Diced carrots and a Granny Smith apple bring out butternut squash's natural sweetness without masking its flavor. In fact, some reviewers recommend swapping the potato with a sweet potato to enhance it even more.
Lentil and Buckwheat Soup
This thick vegetarian soup makes a substantial cold-weather meal. "This is a typical 'zuppa' for a winter evening in Italy. Serve with crusty bread topped with a bit of extra virgin olive oil. Typical to most Italian food, it's both healthy and delicious," recipe creator Buckwheat Queen says.
Cream of Cauliflower Soup
Butter, milk, and potatoes give this soup its creamy consistency. Thanks to cauliflower's mild flavor, this soup would pair well with basically any main.
Slow Cooker Beef Stew
"This easy slow cooker beef stew recipe made with potatoes, carrots, celery, broth, herbs, and spices is hearty and comforting. You won't be slow to say 'yum'!" —BUCHKO
Hungarian Mushroom Soup
Reviewer naples43102 calls this soup "exquisite." In addition to halving the amount of parsley, she recommends using a medley of mushrooms to create great texture and bold flavor. "The dill and lemon both play their parts and have important contributions," she says. "I used a good, sweet Hungarian paprika, which really makes a difference in the final result."
Thai Sweet Potato Soup
Red curry paste, Sriracha, grated ginger, and garlic bring the heat to this Thai-inspired soup. "Delicious! Loved the consistency and different layers of flavor: sweet, spicy, warm, and savory," Brianna Dickel says.
Italian Wedding Soup
Homemade meatballs, orzo, carrots, and escarole (or another leafy green) come together in this comforting soup. Reviewers recommend cooking the pasta in a separate pot to keep it from absorbing the broth.
Ukrainian Red Borscht Soup
"My friend's mother from Ukraine taught me this recipe for the classic beet soup," Patti says. "It can be served vegetarian-style by omitting the sausage."
Cabbage Beef Soup
Consider this dense soup a cross between cabbage rolls and chili, thanks to ground beef, cabbage, kidney beans, tomato sauce, and cumin.
Cheese Soup with Broccoli
Several reviewers prefer Cheddar (or sharp Cheddar) to processed cheese in this soup, while others report five-star results with Muenster, Swiss, or Monterey Jack. Which cheese will you choose?
Pumpkin Soup with Coconut Milk
Whether you prefer pumpkin or butternut squash, you'll want to make this soup all season for its gourd-geous color and spiced, sweet flavor.
Brussels Sprouts Soup with Caramelized Onions
Take advantage of Brussels sprout season with this puréed soup, which gets its flavor from caramelized onions and fresh thyme. Top it with sour cream, hot sauce, and (as reviewer lutzflcat suggests) crumbled bacon. "I think a cup of this would be an elegant starter for a fancy company (or family) dinner," lutzflcat says.
Curry Red Lentil Soup
Red lentils, cauliflower, carrots, and kale bulk up this vegan soup. Spices like turmeric, cumin, paprika, and curry powder add extra warmth.
Curried Pumpkin Soup
Reviewers agree that Macintosh apples bring enough sweetness to eliminate the need for added sugar. Swirl a dollop of sour cream on top, then finish it off with roasted pumpkin seeds, as reviewer Chuck Wesserling suggests.
Slow Cooker Lentil and Ham Soup
Queendiva1's rich, saucy slow cooker meal is the epitome of seasonal comfort. Create a warming aroma and great memories around the table with this stick-to-your-ribs soup option.
White Bean and Tomatillo Soup
"This soup was exceptional," raves reviewer MissesVee. "I haven't enjoyed a good soup in a while. I did not have fresh tomatillos so had to use canned, but it worked and I am very satisfied. Was an excellent soup for a very cold and rainy day."
Delicious Ham and Potato Soup
This comforting soup features butter, diced potatoes, and tender pieces of ham. Take simple ingredients and make cool-weather magic the whole family will love.
Pasta Fazool (Pasta e Fagioli)
"Pasta fazool is a classic Italian-American comfort food, says Chef John. "This recipe works with any sausage, but I like the fennel and anise flavors of sweet Italian sausage with the beans. A hearty soup that's fast and easy to put together."
Turkey Carcass Soup
This hearty, full-flavored soup makes sure the whole turkey goes to use this year. Pantry seasonings, diced veggies, and scraps combine for a rich reminder of fall's best flavors.
Chef John's Roasted Butternut Squash Soup

"This roasted butternut squash soup is my favorite fall soup of all time. It's inexpensive, easy, nutritious, and absolutely delicious! If you're feeling like something a bit more substantial, try this soup topped with a handful of crispy bacon or diced ham." —Chef John
