2 Irresistible Autumn Soups
When you think of the ultimate comfort food,
a bowl of hot soup has to come to mind…
Autumn Apple Cheddar Soup and French Onion Ravioli Soup
will kick off your Fall in a delicious way!
They are easy to make too
The Apple Cheddar Soup is made with apples, apple juice, potatoes,
onions, chicken broth and cheddar cheese
Saute the apples, onions and potatoes until the apples are soft,
about 8 minutes
Add broth and apple juice
Simmer for 10-12 minutes
Use an immersion blender and puree the soup
Add 1 1/2 cups of the cheese and stir until it melts
Season with salt and pepper to taste
Garnish with reserved cheese and crispy bacon
The French Onion Ravioli Soup is made completely in a slow cooker
Refrigerated ravioli is the secret to the ease of this soup,
it will cook right in the soup!
The onions are caramelized right in the slow cooker
in 3 hours
Then the liquids and seasonings are added
and the soup continues to cook for 3 more hours
Slide in the ravioli and cook for another 30 minutes

I have never had a soup with apple in it, but I love apples and cheddar cheese so I think these would combine into a delicious soup.
