Creamy Chicken Tortellini Soup and 3 More for Soup Season

Hey Reader,

There's one day every fall when I walk outside and decide summer is over. That day happened here this week, and the soup pot came out that same night.

Three of these take about half an hour, which is the major reason I make them on a weeknight. The fourth takes longer but is so worth it.

Four Soups for the First Cool Week

My Creamy Chicken Tortellini Soup takes just over 30 minutes and starts with a rotisserie chicken. My family devoured it. Even I go for a second bowl, and I almost never get seconds of anything..

I roast the garlic right alongside the squash for Roasted Butternut Squash Soup, which mellows it completely. You can even prep the squash a couple of days in advance for a quick weeknight dinner when you have less time.

Raw meatballs go straight into the simmering broth (yep, for real) for Italian Meatball Soup, so you skip browning them. This means fewer dishes to wash and more time to enjoy whatever show you're bingeing.

I made Broccoli Cheddar Soup between dropping my daughter at lacrosse and picking her back up. It's one of my favorite soups to order in a restaurant, but now none of my family does because they like my version that much better.

I give my friends who swear they can't cook the Creamy Chicken Tortellini Soup recipe. What's the first soup you make every fall?
