Now that it’s October, I think it’s pretty safe to say it’s officially comfort food season. And what’s more comforting than a massive bowl of soup?
Okay…maybe mac & cheese. Or grilled cheese. Or anything with cheese.
But soup is definitely up there on the list. And since I’m trying to eat on the healthier side this month, this Kale & Quinoa Minestrone Soup is veggies meet comfort food perfection.
To make the soup I followed this recipe to a T. It took just about an hour from start to finish.
I actually made this same soup once before and my whole family loved it. It’s a recipe I definitely wait until I’m at my parents’ house for because – let’s be real – a homemade soup with lots of prep isn’t exactly conducive to an NYC apartment kitchen.
If you’re looking for a hearty and delicious (and even healthy) soup for fall – this is definitely one worth trying! And for the sake of comfort food, don’t hesitate to top it with a bit of parmesan cheese ![]()

What’s your favorite comfort food? Favorite soup?










I love kale for a fall veggie! and I’ve been craving soup..i can’t wait to try this!
Ohh my favorite comfort food definitely used to be grilled cheese sandwiches but I’m not sure what it is for fall! I do love a hearty soup though and am especially fond of butternut squash soup but this looks delicious too!
Yes loveee butternut squash soup too!
My favorite soups is probably either some kind of seafood chowder (anything with seafood, really) or beer cheese soup. (Cheese AND soup! Perfect comfort food!)
Yummy! Will definitely try for a family dinner!
Soup season!!! I love chicken tortilla soup. Yumm!
Oh, my, what a great looking recipe! And it looks fairly easy, too.
Loaded baked potato soup - definitely an indulgence and a winter favourite when you need something warm and comforting….other than a pillow fort with a duvet and netflix.
Oh my goodness, this looks delicious! I’m definitely making this! thanks for sharing! A healthier option for a family favorite.
