Soups that make a meal

Generous bowls with beans, chicken, or pasta. A little stirring now, an easier dinner later.

Soups that make a meal

Pick white chicken chili for a creamy bean base or lasagna soup for a tomato-rich bowl. Both benefit from tasting at the end: a little acidity can brighten chili, while a splash of broth brings pasta soup back to the consistency you want. Freeze portions before adding dairy or noodles for better texture.

Make it easier: Cool soup in shallow containers and refrigerate promptly instead of leaving a full pot on the counter.
