“But it’s August!” you say. “Who wants to sit in front of the fire when it’s 100 degrees in the shade?”
And that, dear friends, is exactly why we’re dreaming of soup simmering gently on the stove while the weather outside is frightful. It’s escapism, pure and simple. We’re reminding you (and ourselves) that those brisk autumn days are just around the corner, and to celebrate that fact we’re giving away an All-Clad Soup Set to one lucky responder.
Use the 6-quart stainless steel soup and stew pot to make all your favorite cold-weather recipes. Two round ramekins and a soup ladle allow you to serve in style. And if you need inspiration, The Big Book of Soups & Stews cookbook will provide oodles of recipes to please all palates. We’re guessing you won’t want to wait until fall to use this beautiful cookware.
(All-Clad doesn’t know that we decided to celebrate autumn early by giving away this Soup Set.)

I love carrot soup when it gets cold. I have a recipe for a slightly spicy carrot soup that super easy to make and really comforting. In Florida we don’t get snow, but it sure does get cold!
Nothing like a big pot of vegetable beef soup to warm you up! Of course another favorite is Ham and bean soup with fresh cornbread on the side.
A good bowl or either chicken noodle or turkey noodle soup hits the spot on those cold winter nights!!
Chili would have to be my favorite.
We make a lot of soup in the fall and winter. After we make a pot full, we always divide it up into smaller freezer bowls. My husband takes them to work with him, my daughter takes them to work also. We also make sure that we have some in bigger containers to have at a later date.
I love beef stew
Taco Soup or Santa Fe Soup
I love a warm, hearty bowl of Cabbage Beef soup.
When the fall sets in and weather starts getting cooler, nothing makes me warmer inside and out that a nice hot bowl of my moms potato soup. Not only does it warm me up it brings back such fond memories. As hard as I try, I can never seem to duplicate that recipe! I think she must have put an extra dash of love in her recipe and forgot to write it down!
Pea Soup! But Mom called it Peas Porridge because of chunks of potato, carrots and ham and it was thick!
Beef Stew! Yum.
Chili – its so perfect on a cold day.
Cream of broccoli soup…..
My favorite stew to eat during the winter is beef stew. It’s a nice hardy meal that I enjoy with some homemade cornbread.
A thick turkey chili overloaded with vegetables and beans is the best on a cold day.
I love to make Albondigas (mexican meatball) soup.

Beef stew always warms me up!!! I enjoy making it as much as eating it!!!!

I love a hot bowl of creamy potato leek soup, that has just a hint of horseradish in it. It’s comfort in a bowl.
When the weather starts getting cooler I love making 17 bean soup with a smoked ham hock in in. Add some nice crusty bread and i am in heaven!
Loaded baked potato is the best!
Middle Eastern lentil soup, with a quick squeeze of lemon. I can eat a couple bowls of that. That and chili with cornbread.
