There are so many tasty recipes you can whip together with so many different combinations of ingredients. What’s even better is that you can load these soups up with the important nutrients you need to fuel your body, all while keeping things warm and tasty. We did some digging, found some recipes, taste-tested them and decided to share them with you all. Enjoy!

1. Skinny Chicken Fajita Soup

3. Instant Pot Taco Soup

This recipe is the perfect way to break in that new instant pot you received over the holidays. It’s a simple to follow recipe that will surely be a hit among anyone you decide to share it with… though we won’t blame you if you want to keep it all for yourself.

4. Cheesy Leek and Potato Soup

This soup is absolutely delicious. The cheesy cashew cream sauce is made from a tasty and healthy list of ingredients instead of using a block of cheese. It contains apple cider vinegar, which is great for gut health, and it also has healthy fats in the pumpkin seeds and coconut oil. Give it a try!

60K OMG! ???? I really can’t express how grateful I am for all the love and support, and how much joy it brings me to see you enjoying and recreating my recipes! Thank you thank youuu! ?? . . Today I’m sharing this easy and CHEESY LEEK AND POTATO SOUP!? The recipe simply simmers leeks and potato in a pot, then I’ve blitz and poured in my cashew cheese sauce (the same sauce that’s used to make my potato hasselbacks a few posts back). It’s a heavenly combo. I’ve then topped with toasted pumpkin and fried rosemary, (sautéed in a skillet with a bit of coconut oil and salt). It’s a great topping if you’re gluten-free or want to save on the bread until it’s time to stuff your face with stuffing! ? . . You can find the recipe on the blog! Link in profile.? It would make a great soup to begin your Christmas dinner, or a simple recipe to enjoy through the week. And finally THANKS AGAIN from the bottom of my heart for all the love and support. It’s a dream to be able to share my recipes with you. I have so many more exciting projects coming your way.
