Creamy Cajun Chicken Soup
To start off our list of fall soup recipes, we have a delicious and creamy Cajun chicken soup. This soup is packed with flavor and will warm you up on a chilly evening. One of the best things about this recipe is that you can easily customize the Cajun seasoning to suit your taste preferences. If you don’t have cayenne pepper or you prefer milder flavors, simply omit it from the seasoning blend.
For the seasoning blend, you’ll need garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, salt, oregano, thyme (or Italian seasoning if you don’t have them), and paprika. Mix these ingredients together to create a flavorful seasoning for your soup.
In terms of ingredients, you’ll need chicken breasts, a three pepper and onion blend (or onions, peppers, celery, and carrots if you have them), minced garlic, diced tomatoes (preferably fire-roasted), chicken broth, cream cheese, and heavy cream.
To prepare the soup, start by greasing your crockpot and adding the chicken breasts. Then, add the pepper and onion blend or your choice of vegetables. Sprinkle in the minced garlic and add the diced tomatoes, including the juice. Pour in the chicken broth and sprinkle in the Cajun seasoning mixture. Set your crockpot on high for about 3-4 hours or until the chicken is cooked through.
Once the chicken is cooked, use a meat chopper or two forks to shred the chicken directly in the crockpot. Add the cream cheese in chunks and stir in the heavy cream. Let the soup sit on low for about 30 minutes, allowing the cream cheese to melt and blend into the soup.
While the soup is simmering, you can prepare some cornbread on the side to accompany the Cajun chicken soup. Once everything is done, serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of cheddar cheese, and some green onions for garnish.
This creamy Cajun chicken soup is a hit in our household, and I hope you’ll enjoy it too. The flavors are rich and comforting, making it the perfect fall soup recipe.
Cheeseburger Soup
Next up, we have a hearty and satisfying cheeseburger soup. This recipe combines all the classic flavors of a cheeseburger into a comforting and delicious soup.
For the ingredients, you’ll need ground beef, potatoes, onions, bacon, garlic, flour, chicken broth, cream, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and cheddar cheese.
To prepare the soup, start by browning the ground beef in a large pot. Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the pot and set it aside. In the same pot, sauté the onions and garlic until they become fragrant and translucent. Add the flour to create a roux, cooking it for a couple of minutes to remove any raw flour taste.
Pour in the chicken broth and stir well to combine. Add the cooked ground beef, diced potatoes, and bacon to the pot. Let the soup simmer until the potatoes are tender and cooked through. Stir in the cream, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and cheddar cheese. Cook for a few more minutes until the cheese is melted and the soup is creamy.
To serve the cheeseburger soup, consider topping it with some crumbled bacon, shredded cheese, and a side of pickles. This soup is incredibly flavorful and will remind you of biting into a juicy cheeseburger. It’s the perfect comfort food for a cozy fall evening.

Add the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer. Add the chicken breasts and cook until they are cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pot and shred it into bite-sized pieces.
