Every week, I plan our meals on Sunday and share recipes on my Pinterest here.
Recently, soup has been a frequent flier on our weekly menu. Is there anything better on a cold day?

Here are my 3 favorite soup recipes:
* Pioneer Woman’s Perfect Potato Soup. Basically if Ree Drummond comes up with it, I’m on board. This recipe doesn’t disappoint! I prefer a thicker, chunkier soup, so I put about a cup less broth and do not put it in the blender. I could eat this every day. {Recipe here.}
* Peas and Crayons Broccoli Cheddar Soup. I only discovered the brilliance of broccoli cheddar soup in the last 3 years or so. How did I not realize it was amazing the other 30 years of my life? Anyway, this is my go-to recipe. I like it better than any restaurant version I have tried. Everything is fresh and the Gouda cheese…oh my gosh. {Recipe here.}
* Chicken Enchillada Soup. This is a throw-in-the-Crock Pot recipe, which makes it a total winner for this working mom! I also froze a ziplock of all the ingredients except the broth before LL was born so it was ready to go. It’s tasty and total comfort food. I add green chile (New Mexican roots) and always serve with tortilla chips, grated cheese, sour cream, and avocado. {Recipe here.}
*Olive Garden Chicken and Gnocci Soup. I am always suspect of a recipe that’s a. Opucat of something I like at a restaurant. But this one literally tastes just like the OG version. Plus, other than the butter, it’s really healthy!
I made the chicken in the crock pot the night before, so it only took me about 30 minutes to whip this up! I added celery and used one less cup of chicken broth than called for, but other than that, I followed the recipe. {Recipe here.}
Let me know what you think if you give them a whirl!

I love soup! All great choices. I need to get better at meal planning. I used to be so good at it. Once I move into my new place in February I plan on getting back on track.
