Be sure to use waxy potatoes, such as red or Yukon Gold, in this crockpot potato soup recipe. The result will be creamier than if you use starchy varieties like russets. Load your bowl up like a classic baked potato or see Tip (below) for more ways to mix it up.

![Instant Pot Cream of Carrot Soup](https://www.eatingwell.com/thmb/y4umIp9JfO39qJy-2IYfGzvwjKE=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/6832099-770fc9bba4b74517af9f529da3f22be9.jpg)

Matzo Ball Soup with Carrot & Dill
![Matzo Ball Soup](https://www.eatingwell.com/thmb/YDRNPJF1n7C-SteZImlCT3aQhOI=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/matzo-ball-soup-5dafcd7886b945adaa021f3382b451f4.jpg)
Nothing says Passover like matzo ball soup. The key to these tender, flavorful matzo balls is a hint of schmaltz (chicken fat), a little seltzer and an extra-long simmer. If schmaltz is not readily available at your market, ask the butcher or seek out a local meat market. Or, if you have chicken on hand, remove the skin and cook it over low heat to render the fat. If matzo meal is unavailable, look for whole matzo crackers and grind them at home in your food processor.
Use-It-Up Vegetable Soup
![Use-It-Up Vegetable Soup](https://www.eatingwell.com/thmb/fofTTWplor4-xwGzA4N7QVOv60Q=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/use-it-up-vegetable-soup-a7d086c28aa1431c8bda874a8dab54a2.jpg)
For the best results, choose one "star" vegetable and no more than 3 supporting ones to prevent the flavors from getting muddy—go green with a mixture of broccoli stems, cauliflower leaves and core, wilted kale and spinach, or get a beta carotene boost with leftover winter squash, wrinkly carrots and a parsnip. The addition of potato (perhaps an old one that's growing roots?) and a scoop of oats give the soup a luxurious mouthfeel without cream, while lemon juice brightens the flavor.
Chicken Orzo Soup

Hearty Tomato Soup with Beans & Greens

Garlicky kale and creamy white beans elevate simple canned tomato soup into a 10-minute lunch or dinner that really satisfies. Use a soup with tomato pieces for a heartier texture. Look for a brand that's low- or reduced-sodium, with no more than 450 mg sodium per serving.
Instant Pot Vegetable Soup
![Instant Pot Vegetable Soup](https://www.eatingwell.com/thmb/Z187uU0ffpjfMFn9qUIqFnPUm5c=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/58527291-3602022c775e422c8968b6f7e0198a74.jpg)
This easy soup recipe cooks up quickly thanks to the use of an electric pressure cooker or multicooker, like the Instant Pot. It packs in tons of filling veggies without packing on the calories. Plus, it happens to be entirely plant-based. If you aren't eating vegan, top it with a little Parmesan cheese or pesto to add even more flavor.
Sheet-Pan Tomato Soup
![Sheet-Pan Tomato Soup](https://www.eatingwell.com/thmb/0nr8sTYPc7frIZ-YY6GcJEQlKWE=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/sheet-pan-tomato-soup-0ff7160d2e5440f6bcc8dbcc59e0bb6b.jpg)
Roasting the tomatoes concentrates their flavor, yielding a richly flavored soup. Make a manchego grilled cheese for dunking.
