Hello, friends! Bob and Terri here, and today we’re pulling our rocking chairs onto the virtual front porch to share some of our favorite cozy soup recipes. Just like the life we’ve built here at Our Good Life—blending family, everyday adventures, and good food—these soups are warm, sincere, and easy to fall in love with.  Did you hear that the forecast for this winter is going to be wild?  It will be the perfect season to settle down with some comforting, hearty soups!


Mom's Potato and Dumpling Soup

This is the soup that says comfort to me the most!  My mom made her potato soup with egg-and-flour dumplings that were dropped into the hot milk to cook.  We could always tell that mom made soup when we opened the door and smelled the delicious potato and onion scent that came from the kitchen! 
This soup is cozy, nourishing, and perfect for weeknight dinners or recipe-sharing with neighbors.



Busy Day Soup




My husband and I love to make this soup and have it on hand in individual containers in the fridge. It is a full meal, and when you are on the go like we are, sometimes we just have time to heat up soup and get on our way!  We love making this soup because it is a little different each time we make it!

This soup is both forgiving and full of flavor—just the kind of relaxed, family-friendly recipe we love.

One-Pot Lasagna Soup




A "Our Good Life" favorite: One Pot Lasagne Soup.  As the name implies, there is minimal cleanup, making it a good recipe for busy days.  It is like eating lasagna, but the difference is that there's a soupy tomato goodness that just cries out for garlic bread to be dunked!
