We’ve been celebrating National Soup Month throughout January at our house. Of course, we tend to celebrate with soup pretty much all of the time! I don’t think I ever run out of ideas for types of soups, but we do have our favorites, I suppose.

I shared 4 of those favorites on this week’s THV11 This Morning segment: Barleycorn’s Cheese Soup, Easy Rainy Day Tomato-Basil Soup, Taramahoota Sopa con Pollo y Arroz (one of our all-time favorites that I shared on Riceland’s blog), and this one — Pesto, Pasta, Bean and Sausage Soup. The cheese and tomato soups are what I call “cup soups” meaning they are great to pour into a big ol’ mug and just drink. You’ll probably want to pair them with a sandwich or salad. The Taramahoota and Pesto, Pasta, Bean and Sausage Soup are quick, easy and definitely filling. There’s no need for anything else unless you just want to add some sort of bread or crackers.

If you’re a pesto lover like I am, then you are certainly going to enjoy this soup. The flavor of the pesto permeates the soup with an incredible savory aroma and taste. If you have one, include the Parmesan rind. There again, it amps up the flavor considerably. Don’t have a rind? Use that almost too dry to even grate chunk of Parm — you know the one. It’s lurking way in the back of your refrigerator cheese drawer. Yep. That one. Chunk it up and toss into this soup.

Oh my goodness, what flavor!

I’m thinking you probably have all of the ingredients for this soup hanging out in your pantry already so go ahead and make it up for your lunch or dinner today. You’ll thank me later!
