Soup and Chili Recipes

Soup and chili recipes are what get us through cold and gloomy winters. Try some of these variations of the classics and change things up a bit. You might be surprised at how much a bit of cardamon can transform an otherwise plain chicken vegetable soup.

While we typically think of soup in the winter months, I find that some versions are great all year long. I keep individual servings of this QUICK and EASY hearty chicken soup in my freezer so that I'll always have something healthy on hand for lunch on those days when I can't leave the office.

However, nothing beats a warm bowl of chili when the weather is nasty. You'll find a wide variety of homemade chili recipes, some that you can make in the slow cooker, like this soup/chili recipe with chicken and salsa or try a more traditional chili that you can make in an instant pot.

If you’ve got some time, then let this hearty chili with short ribs cook for several hours making your house smell divine.  Maybe you want to serve chili for dinner, try covering it with grits and bake it for a chili casserole that will feed a crowd.

Have you tried Cincinnati chili served over pasta, my version is even better topped with pimento cheese.

And nothing goes better with chili or soup than some homemade cornbread, biscuits or rolls.
