9 Soups Inspired by Ree Drummond’s Favorites

Hamburger Soup

It’s no surprise that this cattle rancher loves to make hamburger soup. Not only do her kids like it, but Ree is also a fan because it’s so versatile—she can add whatever vegetables she has on hand.

Chicken Noodle Soup

You don’t need a whole chicken to make homemade chicken noodle soup. Here's how to make it with bone-in chicken, chewy egg noodles and an aromatics-infused broth.

Butternut Squash Soup with Cinnamon

The golden color, smooth and creamy texture, and wonderful taste of this soup make it welcome on a chilly fall day. It has a slightly tangy flavor from the cream cheese, and the cinnamon really comes through. —Jackie Campbell, Stanhope, New Jersey

Zuppa Toscana

You can make a copycat Zuppa Toscana that's even better than the Olive Garden recipe. And it's ready in 30 minutes!

Firehouse Chili

When a recipe intended to serve a group of hungry people passes the firehouse test, you can rest assured that it will be worth making. This firehouse chili has done precisely that. Hearty, zesty, spicy and downright delicious, this recipe will be your go-to when you need something simmering on the stovetop for hungry friends and family to fill bowls at their leisure.

Perfect Potato Soup

The Pioneer Woman is pretty picky about her potato soup. She prefers it to be creamy, textured and above all, comforting. The Pioneer Woman potato soup recipe uses Cajun spices and is topped with bacon.

Put a little spice in your menu with my favorite Anaheim pepper recipe. The peppers, jalapenos and cayenne heat up this full-flavored tortilla soup. —Johnna Johnson, Scottsdale, Arizona

French Onion Soup

This rich and comforting French onion soup recipe is surprisingly simple to make at home. And it rivals the soup you’ll find at any restaurant.

Creamy Red Pepper Soup
