Low Calorie Soup Recipes
Soup season means warm, comforting, steamy bowls of goodness when the weather starts to get cool and bodies get chilly.
However, soup can often times become a calorie dense food with the addition of cream, milk, cheese, or other delicious add ins and toppings.
Here you’ll find a full list of low calorie soup recipes to help you stick to your calorie goals. All of the soups here are less than 500 calories with many of them well below that mark.
These low calorie soups are veggie loaded. Vegetables help to add bulk, making a high-volume meal, without adding a lot of calories.
They also add a ton of extra nutrients!
Many of these soups are vegetarian and/or vegan and under 300 calories per serving. Adding a protein on the side, like grilled meat, a side salad, or a low calorie sandwich, will make it a more substantial low calorie meal.
Soup is also great for meal prep. You can make a big batch of soup for dinner and then portion out the leftovers for quick grab-an-go lunches.
Can you freeze soup?
You can also freeze leftover soup. Then just thaw and reheat on busy weeknights for quick, nourishing meals.
