Soup Ideas Using Fall Superfoods

If there is one type of food synonymous with fall, it’s soup. So, it makes sense that you 
want to combine soup and superfoods. There are tons of ideas, but these soup ideas 
are great ones to start with. You can then customize them according to your 
preferences.

Harvest Squash Soup

This first soup is going to start with the basis of a classic butternut squash soup, but 
also add in some other fall harvest ingredients, including other veggies and seasonings 
that are perfect for this time of year. You can use your butternut squash, along with 
pumpkin or other types of squash that you can get in the fall. This soup also tastes 
really great when you add in some tomatoes, onions, and celery. Then use vegetable 
broth, some cooked rice, and your choice of seasonings. At this point, you can 
customize it until you have made the perfect harvest squash soup.

Turkey and Rice Soup

Rice is a great addition to any soup, since it adds more fiber, lots of flavor, and makes 
the soup more hearty and filling. You can use wild rice or any other type of rice you like 
for this one, including white or brown rice. The superfoods here come from the turkey 
and kale, which are both excellent to have in the fall season. This is a hot soup that will 
warm bellies on a chilly fall evening. Some ingredients that go great with this soup are 
tomatoes, celery, onions, carrots, and kale or spinach if you prefer. You can either use 
vegetable broth or chicken broth for a little more flavor.

Quinoa Soup with Superfoods

Another excellent soup recipe to try out is also going to use grains, but it has quinoa 
instead of rice. Not only is the quinoa itself a superfood you can enjoy year-round, but it 
also includes some great superfood veggies for you. Quinoa is high in protein and fiber, 
and generally more nutritious than other types of rice. Kick the superfoods up a notch 
with veggies like cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, and kale. You can also have more of a 
harvest quinoa soup with butternut squash, but that is entirely up to you. Seasoning like 
thyme, oregano, onion, and celery are wonderful in this type of soup.

Sweet Potato and Carrot Soup

Two popular vegetables to enjoy during the fall that are also nutritious superfoods are 
carrots and sweet potato. You can combine them by making this creamy soup in the fall. 
You can use your peeled and sliced carrots, diced and peeled sweet potatoes, 
vegetable broth, and onion. For an Asian flair, add in some red curry powder or paste, 
garlic, and ginger.
