Summer soups are usually lighter, less hearty, and filling than soups served during other times of the year. Check out these favorites!
Soup Isn’t Just for Winter!
We LOVE soup ! But when you think soup, you most likely think winter.
These chunky or smooth summer soups are just the thing to hit the spot on those warm summer days. They’re not too heavy and are perfect served with a side of bread or fresh green salad .
Bonus: cooking soup in a slow cooker keeps you from heating your kitchen and frees up time to enjoy summertime activities.
Save the heavy stews and chowders for winter and enjoy these lighter and flavorful soups.

My husband was just asking me about summer soups. I love soup any time of the year. These soups are perfect and light enough for any time of the year!
I love soup during the summer but always felt “stuck” with the feeling that I couldn’t have it. Haha! This list is amazing!! Thank you!
I am all for eating soups in the summer! My go-to is tomato with grilled cheese! All the ones we’ve tried are so delicious!!
