14 Simple Homemade Soup Recipes

Soup has the power to warm up both soul and body.  It is the perfect meal for lunch or a light dinner and typically can be adapted to everyone’s tastebuds or cravings!  Can’t decide on just one?  No worries…we got 14!

In my house, if there is no soup, there is no lunch.  My kids grew up eating soup from the time they could eat solid foods.  The Eastern European roots run deep in this family and so hubby and I are also easily tempted by soup for either lunch or dinner.  Each Saturday morning I yell to the family, requesting their soup needs for the weekend.  Most of the time, their requests are ignored and instead I cook what I feel like (they will eat it anyhow) or what my Instagram followers request.  Either way, I have become a soupologist of sorts and have come up with a plethora of different soups!  Here is just a taste of some of them!
