03of 18Ania’s Zupa Grzybowa (Ania’s Mushroom Soup)Ali RedmondIn Poland, foraged mushrooms, notably boletus, are prized for their flavor. Many families in Poland serve this vegetarian mushroom soup on Christmas Eve, but in Natalie Jesionka’s family, it’s served all winter long. There are many different recipes for this soup, depending on the ingredients that are accessible where the cook lives. The addition of white wine is a nod to Jesionka’s great-grandmother, who made her own wine from grapes and added it to her soup. In Poland, this soup is served with square handmade noodles called lazanki, but you can serve it with small pasta like orzo, or with barley.View Recipe

06of 18Healthy Cream of Mushroom SoupThis healthy version of the traditional cream of mushroom soup calls for you to puree half of the soup for that rich, creamy mouthfeel and leave the other half as-is for hits of meaty texture. Don’t skip the parsley and tarragon as both add a nice pop of color and their flavors play so well with the mushrooms. Be sure to brown the mushrooms well as that’ll add even more depth to the soup.View Recipe

We use the flavor profile of Swedish meatballs, like the ones you find at your local IKEA store, as the inspiration for this savory soup. The creamy broth makes an ideal base for the soup. Refrigerating the meat mixture for at least 15 to 20 minutes before shaping the meatballs helps them keep their shape. Use a small ice cream or cookie scoop, if you have one, to portion the meatballs.

Cream of Mushroom & Barley Soup

10of 18Immunity SoupThis easy soup is full of immunity-supporting foods: vitamin C–rich kale, zinc-containing chicken and chickpeas and antioxidant-packed garlic. Plus, the hot, steamy broth and a hint of pepper heat get your nose running—great for flushing out sinuses and potentially staving off an infection. It’s a big pot of brothy soup that you can make ahead and enjoy for a couple of days; the flavor just gets better over time. You may be wary of the large amount of garlic, but keep in mind that it mellows considerably after being cooked. Though we love using bone-in chicken breasts here, you can also swap in 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken breast in a pinch (be aware that it will add more sodium).“View Recipe

14of 18Creamy Cremini Mushroom SoupReduced-fat sour cream and low-fat milk make this soup creamy without all the fat. The pudgy brown mushrooms called cremini are generally firmer and richer-tasting than common white mushrooms. Nothing soothes, nourishes and comforts like homemade chicken broth.
