I'd go out on a limb and say that there isn't even one person out there in a population of 8 billion, who doesn't enjoy soup. And now that winters are here, there's nothing more comforting than a piping hot bowl of literal goodness. However, despite saving a bunch of recipe reels everyday, clearly most of us do not have the time to make soup from scratch. Introducing; instant soups! (But the healthier kind.) Here are our top picks for you to indulge in this cold, long, winter.
