There are few things more comforting this time of year than a big bowl of soup. Hearty and healthy, this one-dish wonder keeps our bellies full and is the perfect remedy for a cold winter's day.
So what were the standout soups from the past year? It appears we especially love our chicken soups, from Indian-spiced to the traditional. The popular go-to vegetables were red pepper, carrot and squash. So, go on and ladle up another hearty bowl of goodness because these favourites are perfect served hot or pulled from the freezer and warmed up.
