We make things "from scratch" a lot so I like things that I can make easily. We doubled the recipe and fought over the leftovers.

Hearty Dutch vegetable soup with tender curry-spiced meatballs made from bread-soaked ground beef or veal. Simmered in beef bouillon with carrots, celery, onion, and thyme. A one-pot meal.

Roasted garlic potato soup with crisp bacon, oven-roasted whole garlic heads, and russet potatoes simmered with onions and carrots. Lower-fat creamy soup with bold smoky-sweet depth.

Loaded baked potato soup in a bowl: tender potatoes simmered creamy with milk and butter, then loaded with sour cream, crispy bacon, sharp cheddar, and green onion. All the baked-potato fixings, spoonable.

Cream of broccoli and pea soup with puréed fresh broccoli, sweet peas, and silky half-and-half. A classic homemade soup smoother than canned and far brighter in color.

Creamy vegan tomato, potato, and mushroom soup with soy milk, tamari, barley malt, and basil. Pureed potatoes do the thickening, no dairy needed. A wholesome 30-minute one-pot soup.

Roasted acorn squash soup: foil-roasted squash pureed with sweated onion and garlic, finished with cream, cinnamon, and a whisper of mace for a velvety fall starter.

Beer cheese soup with carrots, celery, and a warm spice blend of cumin, nutmeg, and cloves. Sour cream stirred in at the finish, melting cheese on top. Lighter and more aromatic than classic beer cheese.

Bacon, beer, and cheese soup blends Cheez Whiz with a cornstarch-thickened milk base, finished with smoky bacon and a splash of beer. A 1980s ski-lodge favorite.

Creamy potato soup at its richest, built on a trio of heavy cream, half-and-half and milk over tender potatoes and sweet sauteed onion. Leave it chunky or puree silky-smooth, then top with croutons.

Creamy potato soup made the simplest way: boil and mash potatoes right in the cooking water, then stir in butter, half-and-half, garlic, and paprika. A pantry-staple, single-pot weeknight dinner.

Creamy butternut squash and pear soup, a velvety autumn first course with thyme, coriander, and a finishing swirl of cream. Garnished with sliced pear and sesame seeds.

Potato-bean soup is the dump-and-simmer one-pot supper: potatoes, cannellini beans, carrots, celery, garlic, and dill in chicken broth. Two hours, eight ingredients, weeknight gold.

Cheddar carrot soup with sweet mashed carrots, sharp cheddar, milk, and a dash of cayenne. Velvety, vibrant orange, and ready in 30 minutes for an easy weeknight starter.

Turkey meatball soup with milk-soaked bread, simmered in tomato-spiked chicken broth with onion, carrots, celery, and a whisper of allspice. A weeknight dinner soup that feels Sunday-cooked.

Butternut squash and apple soup blends Granny Smith with rosemary and marjoram, thickened naturally with bread cubes and finished with an egg yolk and cream liaison. Pure autumn in a bowl.
