There are a lot of reasons to look forward to cooler weather (not the least of which is wearing hoodies nonstop), but moving soup back into the regular dinner rotation is also pretty high on my list.

Add some good bread on the side, and soup makes a meal I’ll eat over and over in the fall and winter.

I’ve rounded up 20 soups I look forward to making all year (with dozens of more ideas here). Some of these recipes are ideal for busy nights while others are perfect for slower evenings or for company.

If your soup routine could use a pick-me-up start here! Pick a soup or two for this week’s menu, and look forward to leftovers. Between you and me, lunch the next day might be the best part (as long as my kids don’t get to them first).
