Soup Challenge Reviews
Participants say they’re more excited to cook, discovered new family favorites, and even batch-cooked to freeze meals for months. With simple prep and flexible recipes, you’ll see that healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated.
I got off to a late start so made one more soup this week. It was the creamy vegetable soup. This soup was really delicious and completely changed my mind about cashew cream which added such a nice flavor and texture. I will definitely make it again but with less pepper. The soup challenge was great and 5 days work better for me than 10.
The challenge had a good variety of soups, as usual, but the creamy vegetable soup was definitely my favorite.
Great leftovers for several days.
I love these challenges because it allows me to make meals without the worry of how much, what to add, how long to cook etc. They always turn out exactly as shown.
I love getting the receipts and they were all delicious. I try to eat healthy and the recipes do help.
This challenge has been a great way to kick off Fall and be prepared for cooler weather. The recipes are easy to follow and there is minimal prep required. Jen does a great job blending flavors while amping up nutrition. I plan to make this soup challenge part of my “List of thing to do in Fall”. I now have 16 souper meals in my freezer (the rest where consumed)!
Motivating and Delicious
I really felt overwhelmed with all the days I was going to have to do something. I did get off track and could not doe it two of the days. I did catch up.
Organized extremely organized!!!
This is my second year doing the soup challenge. I love it because all of the soups are delicious and easy to make. I have great new recipes now to have in my rotation!
Great New Recipes!
The soups were so good! Easy to prep and so flavorful. Now I have a bunch of frozen options for lunches or quick dinners. Will definitely participate again! More plants = healthier life! 🌱♥️
Easy, filling, and delish!
Didn’t get to make all the soups but the ones I did were AMAZING
Wonderful
I love group challenges. They are a way to help you stay accountable with healthier eating, and introduce you to foods you normally wouldn’t eat, or maybe just learn a new way to appreciate them. I’ve been trying to eat healthier and the first couple of weeks are the hardest while you break old habits. Having healthy foods ready to go on hand that nourish the body and the soul is key. I think there are at least three soups I found in this challenge that will go on a permanent rotation to keep in my fridge/freezer and keep me going. I look forward to the next one and the great tastes I will discover along the way.
Another Excellent Challenge
It helps to have recipes to follow especially with seasonings
Delicious Vegan Soups!
This was a perfect time to do this soup challenge with the fall weather finally getting cooler.
I made soups that I did not know if I would really like, but I actually liked each of them and felt better after completing this process. I think that I can keep this progress going now that I have had a good jump start.
Thank you for showing me some good options for variety.
P.S. I love soup, but I hate all the sodium that is in store-bought brands.
Soup your way to better health
I started out great the first day, but then I had a conflict the second day and couldn’t make the recipe in time. That set me back for the rest of the week. Other than that, I liked trying new recipes and they were all so healthy and yummy. I already eat a very healthy organic-GF-vegan diet, so variety is what I valued about this challenge.
I needed more time!
I was surprised how attainable this challenge was from cost, cooking capacity, and time. Before I signed up, I wondered if this was going to be too difficult with my schedule and I found it to be a lot easier than I thought it would be. It was also delicious.
Attainable Challenge
Smooth, naturally sweet from the carrots, with a gentle savory depth from the onions. The texture is perfectly creamy and comforting, making it ideal for a cozy meal or a light lunch.
I’ve stored the leftovers in the fridge because this one’s definitely worth having again — the flavors only get better the next day! 😋🍲
Comfort in a Bowl
This was my first time and I really enjoyed cooking the recipes, trying new soups and eating more plant based foods.
I liked that it was a short (5-7days) challenge made it more manageable for me right now and that it was free (helped a lot right now too).
Look forward to more challenges in the future and adding more plant based foods into my diet.
Stepping up
I absolutely loved the soups. I have added them into the rotation of the few soups that I did have but now these will probably go to the top. Glad I had the souper cubes to help store them. Keep up the good work.
soups for the Win!!
This was not only fun but also very easy especially using the InstaPot to help with some of the steps. I have 2 InstaPots and they were both running at the same time!!!
This challenge reminded me of how healthy and filling your recipes are, Jen. Thank you for sharing your recipe and passion for healthy food with all is us.
Fun and easy
I absolutely love soup and I took this challenge to find some healthy recipes for myself and my family. These soups will be rotated into my dinner schedules.
Yay Soup!!
It was a thrill right from the beginning to look into my fridge and see such yummy choices. All week long they were transformed into nurturing soups that warmed my tummy and soul. I feel more empowered now to take charge of what goes into my fridge and ultimately my body. This challenge is over, yet the impact will live on. Thank you tremendously. ♥️
Big hooray for a soup a day!
Absolutely loved the creamyness of some of the soups, textures of others. Alternative spices were easy to substitute.
Learning how to prep will be a game changer for me.
Flavorful
