Easy And Delicious Soup Recipes are a very economical way to stretch your grocery budget dollars because they are a great way to use leftovers. Don’t throw those extra vegetables out. Throw them in a soup.

Another thing I love about soups is that they are so versatile. You can include whatever you have on hand in a soup and let it cook and simmer and it will be delicious. Change up the type of vegetables, legumes, or the protein or the seasonings and you have a completely new soup! It is never boring.
