7 SOUPer Soup Recipes To Keep You Warm This Winter

@veganricha

Soups are one of my favorite dishes in general, but now that it's winter, they're even more popular at home! Soups can be paired with holiday dinners or be a simple lunchtime leftover to enjoy! Here are seven soups you should definitely try at home this winter. Click on the linked titles to go to the recipe!

1. Baked Potato Soup

Baked Potato Soup is a downright classic! This soup is delicious and very creamy. especially because of all the potatoes added in. Baked Potato Soup has many variations of itself, so it's awesome trying to find your favorite. Personally, I love adding onion, garlic, and bacon to mine!

2. Pho

Pho is a delicious Vietnamese soup that my family loves to eat! Whether it's at home or in Vietnamese restaurants in different cities, I love trying different versions of pho! This soup takes some more commitment because there are a few Asian spices and vegetables you have to go out of your way to get. However, the end result will be worth it!

3. Oxtail Soup

Oxtail soup is mouthwatering dish that's popular in my Chinese-American family. One thing that makes this soup stand out is the use of oxtail, which I don't find in many soups. It's also not has heavy or creamy as most American soups, so you can perfectly pair it with your dinner! This soup definitely deserves a try!

4. Lentil Soup

Lentil soup is one of my most favorites! I really enjoy the texture of the soup. Additionally, the lentils and flavoring are so delicious, in addition to being super healthy. It's the perfect feel-good winter soup to try in December.

5. Butternut Squash Soup

This soup is one of my favorites to have with a holiday meal. It feels super fancy, while being generally simple. Even though this soup is more fall-oriented, this is still a great, warm soup to comfort you during the colder weather.

6. Chili

I love chili because it has a delicious flavor, plus a bunch of ingredients that I enjoy. The spices give the soup an amazing aroma. The beef and vegetables mix together so well for a filling lunch or dinner. Also, when I make fries at home, I can add chili (and cheese) to them to make one of my favorite comfort foods, chili cheese fries.

7. Eight Treasure Congee

This soup-like porridge is another delicious Chinese dish that's worth trying out. It's a breakfast congee that can be doubled as a dessert. The main ingredients are beans, rice, and nuts, with the standouts being peanuts and red beans. This congee has the perfect mix of sweetness and crunchiness, especially when you add Asian rock candy.

I hope you give these amazing soups a try! They'll definitely warm you up this winter.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
