If you’re in the mood for some healthy comfort food or just crave a warm meal, then soup may be precisely what you need!

Enjoying a bowl of soup is an easy, quick, and tasty way to add more nutrients to your diet.

5 reasons to eat soup

  1. It's good for you 💪

    When prepared with the right ingredients, soup can be a truly healthy dish with multiple nutritional benefits. For example, soups made with bone, vegetable, or meat-based broths provide vitamins, minerals, and nutrients, such as collagen.

  2. They’re inexpensive and easy to prepare 🤑

    Soups don’t require a large amount of hands-on time. In fact, if you use a slow or pressure cooker, you can prepare a savory soup in ten minutes or less , and let the cooker do the rest of the work.

  3. They freeze well 🧊

    Soups are great if you want to meal prep lunches or dinners in advance. Whip up a batch on the weekend, and you can stash half in the freezer to enjoy later.

  4. They keep you hydrated 💧

    During the winter chill, it’s not uncommon to drink less than you need. But while you may not be hot and sweaty, you still lose fluid through daily activities. Since soups are mostly liquid, they’re a great way to stay hydrated and full.

  5. They give your immune system a boost ⏫

    Soups can help you stave off cold and flu, and they’re a great antidote for times when you are sick, too! Most soups are loaded with disease-fighting nutrients. In fact, studies show that chicken soup in particular can help prevent the common cold, especially if you load it up with fresh garlic, onions, celery and carrots.
