Adding in additional herbs and spices is a very simple way of improving the flavor of your soups. A great example is this flavorful French Herb Tomato Soup With Quinoa recipe made with tarragon and chives.

Add in Pulses to Make Your Soup More Filling

The red lentils in this Red Lentil Sweet Potato Soup along with spices like turmeric, help give this soup its comforting, hearty flavor. Feel free to add a dollop of Greek yogurt to make this soup even smoother. If you don’t have any red lentils in the pantry, feel free to use another variety instead.

Preparing Your Red Lentils – Before cooking your red lentils, be sure to give them a rinse. Normally you can cook lentils in the liquid of your choice with a ratio of 1:3. Once your cooking liquid is boiling, add in the lentils and cover with a lid and reduce the heat until your lentils are tender.  

Cannellini beans make a great meat substitution in this vegetarian Kale Bean and Rice Soup. For something a bit spicier, try adding in some chili powder for an added kick.

Add Some Lemon Juice

If you want to give your soups a dash of citric flavor, try adding in some lemon juice, for example, in this warm and velvety Greek Lemon Soup made with Success® White Rice.
