The weather in Philadelphia is starting to get chilly, and there aren’t many things more comforting than a steaming bowl of homemade soup. As you start to prepare for the winter months, here are three tips to make cooking this mouthwatering comfort food easier and quicker.
1. Toss in some Rotisserie Chicken
Chicken Noodle Soup with a side of crunchy crackers is the perfect comfort meal for a chilly day. Did you know you can cut down your prep time by buying one of our pre-cooked rotisserie chickens from our deli? The result is soft, perfectly cooked chicken noodle soup, like this one from the folks at Pillsbury.
2. Use a slow cooker instead of the stovetop
Making soup with a slow cooker is the perfect way to make cooking a hot meal work for your schedule. Just pop the ingredients into the slow cooker in the morning, and when you’re done for the day you’ll have a flavor packed dish, like this Chicken Tortilla Soup from Gimme Some Oven, ready for you just when you need it most.
3. Make a big batch and freeze some for later
Check out a freezer-friendly soup recipe, like this Hearty Baked Potato Soup from Taste of Home, for a meal you can prep ahead of time and whip out when you’re short on time and craving a delicious meal.
