Chicken soup has been a popular home remedy for colds and illnesses for generations. While some may claim the healing traits of this dish are just a myth as old as time, there is actually hard evidence supporting its powers. From hydrating properties to nutrient-rich ingredients, chicken soup has earned its reputation as the ultimate comfort food. Here are five reasons why.

Hydration Hero

Chicken soup serves as a deliciously effective way to stay hydrated when you’re feeling under the weather. Its liquid base helps replenish fluids lost during illness, which can also help alleviate congestion.

Nutrient Rich

Packed with chicken, vegetables, and sometimes noodles or rice, chicken soup delivers a fine dose of essential nutrients. From vitamins and minerals to protein, it bolsters your immune system to help your body fight the good fight.

Comfort in a Bowl

Few things offer the same level of comfort as a steaming bowl of chicken soup when you’re feeling sick. Its warmth soothes a sore throat, while the familiar flavors provide a sense of well-being during times of illness.

Anti-Inflammatory

Research suggests that components found in chicken soup, such as chicken bones and vegetables, possess anti-inflammatory properties which can help reduce inflammation in the body.

When your appetite is diminished and your stomach is sensitive due to illness, chicken soup steps in as a gentle yet nourishing option. Its easy-to-digest nature makes it ideal for those with upset stomachs or reduced appetites.

There are thousands of delicious soups out there, and it’s often overwhelming trying to taste them all. Not only are there different styles and different flavors of soups, but there are also countless variations of them as well. One of our favorite kinds of soup you can try is none other than the creamy kind—and if you’re interested in trying them out for yourself, here are three of our favorites.

Broccoli and Carrot

We’ll start our short list of creamy soups with one that’s specific for those who are lactose-intolerant. Based on broccoli and carrots alone, all you really need is an immersion blender and you’ll be cooking your way to soup heaven.

Cream of Broccoli and Cheddar

Here’s where we get to the nitty gritty of it all. This is one of the most delicious soups you can try—a creamy broccoli and cheddar concoction that should honestly be illegal, it’s so tasty. Have some with a slice of garlic bread and you’ve got yourself a delicious meal.

Cream of Wild Mushroom and Brie Cheese

And finally, this is one of the tastiest creamy soups you can try: a cream of wild mushroom and brie cheese mixture. If you think it sounds unreal, just imagine how it tastes. You can make it yourself but if you’re looking to have it made for you, California Pizza Kitchen offers an excellent version of it on their menu.

Who doesn’t appreciate a nice warm bowl of soup on a cold winter day? Cookie and Kate posted this delicious cauliflower soup recipe and the best part is it doesn’t have any cream in it. It’s also gluten-free and you can easily make it dairy-free as well.

Ingredients:

  • 1 large head cauliflower (about 2 pounds) cut into bite-size pieces
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • Fine sea salt
  • 1 medium red onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
  • 4 cups (32 ounces) vegetable broth

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

  3. When the cauliflower is almost done, in a soup pot or Dutch oven warm 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat until it starts simmering. Add the onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir occasionally until the onion is softened and translucent, for about 5 to 7 minutes.
  4. Add the garlic and cook stirring until it’s fragrant, about 30 seconds, and then add the broth.
  5. Put four cauliflower florets aside for garnish and transfer the rest of the cauliflower into the put. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the soup to a simmer. Stir it occasionally for about 20 minutes.
  6. When the soup is complete, remove it from the heat and let it cool. Transfer it to a blender.

Soups are great for lunch or dinner and they’re super easy to make large batches of and freeze for another time. If you love soup as much as we do, you have to follow Cookie and Kate on Instagram. What makes her soups special is that they’re vegetarian and many of them can be made vegan by swapping out a few ingredients. These are three of our favorites.

Broccoli Cheese Soup

Most of Cookie and Kate’s recipes don’t have cheese in them, but if you love cheesy soups you have to try this one. The secret ingredient is the potatoes which are used to get the creaminess of the soup instead of cream and of course there’s cheddar cheese. Complete your meal with a sandwich or salad.

Creamy Roasted Cauliflower Soup

So cauliflower may not be the first vegetable you think of to go in soup, but we were surprised at just how creamy and delicious this soup turned out. It’s super creamy without there actually being any cream and you can add butter for more creaminess.

Roasted Butternut Squash Soup

You’ll want to save this recipe for Thanksgiving as it’s the perfect way to use butternut squash. It’s creamy and vegan with a rich flavor. Our favorite way to eat this soup is with a grilled cheese sandwich.

There are thousands of delicious soups out there, and it’s often overwhelming trying to taste them all. Not only are there different styles and different flavors of soups, but there are also countless variations of them as well. One of our favorite kinds of soup you can try is none other than the creamy kind—and if you’re interested in trying them out for yourself, here are three of our favorites.

Broccoli and Carrot

We’ll start our short list of creamy soups with one that’s specific for those who are lactose-intolerant. Based on broccoli and carrots alone, all you really need is an immersion blender and you’ll be cooking your way to soup heaven.

Cream of Broccoli and Cheddar

Here’s where we get to the nitty gritty of it all. This is one of the most delicious soups you can try—a creamy broccoli and cheddar concoction that should honestly be illegal, it’s so tasty. Have some with a slice of garlic bread and you’ve got yourself a delicious meal.

Cream of Wild Mushroom and Brie Cheese

And finally, this is one of the tastiest creamy soups you can try: a cream of wild mushroom and brie cheese mixture. If you think it sounds unreal, just imagine how it tastes. You can make it yourself but if you’re looking to have it made for you, California Pizza Kitchen offers an excellent version of it on their menu.

Who doesn’t appreciate a nice warm bowl of soup on a cold winter day? Cookie and Kate posted this delicious cauliflower soup recipe and the best part is it doesn’t have any cream in it. It’s also gluten-free and you can easily make it dairy-free as well.

Ingredients:

  • 1 large head cauliflower (about 2 pounds) cut into bite-size pieces
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • Fine sea salt
  • 1 medium red onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
  • 4 cups (32 ounces) vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (you can use margarine for a dairy substitute)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, or more if needed
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, chives and/or green onions (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Toss the cauliflower with 2 tablespoons of olive oil on the baking sheet. Arrange the cauliflower in one layer and sprinkle it will salt. Bake until the cauliflower is tender and browning on the edges, for about 25 to 35 minutes, tossing halfway.
  3. When the cauliflower is almost done, in a soup pot or Dutch oven warm 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat until it starts simmering. Add the onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir occasionally until the onion is softened and translucent, for about 5 to 7 minutes.
  4. Add the garlic and cook stirring until it’s fragrant, about 30 seconds, and then add the broth.
  5. Put four cauliflower florets aside for garnish and transfer the rest of the cauliflower into the put. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the soup to a simmer. Stir it occasionally for about 20 minutes.
  6. When the soup is complete, remove it from the heat and let it cool. Transfer it to a blender.
  7. Add butter or margarine until it’s smooth. Add lemon juice and nutmeg and blend it. Add more salt or lemon juice to taste and blend it again.

Soups are great for lunch or dinner and they’re super easy to make large batches of and freeze for another time. If you love soup as much as we do, you have to follow Cookie and Kate on Instagram. What makes her soups special is that they’re vegetarian and many of them can be made vegan by swapping out a few ingredients. These are three of our favorites.

Broccoli Cheese Soup

Most of Cookie and Kate’s recipes don’t have cheese in them, but if you love cheesy soups you have to try this one. The secret ingredient is the potatoes which are used to get the creaminess of the soup instead of cream and of course there’s cheddar cheese. Complete your meal with a sandwich or salad.

Creamy Roasted Cauliflower Soup

So cauliflower may not be the first vegetable you think of to go in soup, but we were surprised at just how creamy and delicious this soup turned out. It’s super creamy without there actually being any cream and you can add butter for more creaminess.

Roasted Butternut Squash Soup

You’ll want to save this recipe for Thanksgiving as it’s the perfect way to use butternut squash. It’s creamy and vegan with a rich flavor. Our favorite way to eat this soup is with a grilled cheese sandwich.
