If you don’t count the salt and pepper, you’re looking at a 12-ingredient, deliciously customizable chicken tortilla soup recipe from Olena of Ifoodreal. It’s full of tender chicken breast, beans, cheese, sweet corn, tomato sauce, and more flavor.

The best part is this tastiness is cooked in the instant pot, so it’s mostly hands-off and ready to eat in just 20 minutes.

Whenever we see French onion soup on the menu at a restaurant, it’s seldom we don’t order a serving. But, making it at home always seemed more trouble than it was worth.

However, with this delicious French onion soup, The Lazy Slow Cooker does all the work for you. That’s right. It caramelizes the onions as the tempting sweet scent fills your home. Then, all you have to do is add the other ingredients. Finally, serve it in a dish covered with rich and creamy gruyere cheese.

Hong Kong Borscht Soup

When cultures meld to create fusions like this Chinese-style Russian borscht soup from Tracy of Oh My Food Recipes, it’s a thing of beauty. If you’re unfamiliar, borscht is a sour soup made from beetroot.

But the Chinese version replaces beets with tomatoes and tomato paste. However, that’s just one component of this tasty fusion bowl. It’s otherwise filled with potatoes, tender beef, carrots, celery, and seasonings. That’s delicious and translates to any culture.

It’s just tasty comfort food made easier by using a pressure cooker.

Visit Pressure Cook Recipes for the recipe.

But here’s the thing, although it’s vegetarian, this mouthwatering soup is surprisingly thick, thanks to the egg and semolina dumplings. It’s all done in less than an hour, and don’t worry. You won’t miss the meat.

Visit Cook We Will for the recipe.

Butternut Squash Soup With Bacon And Sage

Butternut squash soup with bacon and sage in a bowl.

When making this butternut squash soup with bacon and sage from Katie of Good Life Eats, you roast the squash first. It’s the key to elevating the flavor from, dare we say, bland gloop to a soup with richness and caramelization.

The roasted vegetables, including carrots, onions, plus broth, half and half, etc., go in the blender until silky smooth. Then serve it with bacon crumbles for an irresistible bowl of deliciousness.

Yes, salsa!

While most bean soups start with sauteed fresh veggies, this one replaces them with uber-flavorful salsa. You must soak the beans overnight before cooking them for two hours and serving them with creamy avocado, fragrant cilantro, and strong yet mild red onions. Mmmm!
