When looking for a great soup recipe, Alex and I have a tip: we typically avoid pureed soup recipes! (Think tomato soup, cream of broccoli, and so forth.) Because while delicious, they’re certainly not filling: and if we’re cooking, we want our soup to be a full meal. So here’s a list of our favorite hearty soup recipes that are filling enough to make a meal!

These recipes are packed with loads of vegetables and protein (like beans, lentils, or chicken) to make a filling main dish. Accessorize it with bread and a salad, and it’s a simple, satisfying meal!
