    As the price of going out to eat has soared by nearly 4% between August 2024 and August 2025, many people are choosing to cut back on restaurant dining. Instead, the vast majority are cooking at home—a July 2025 survey from Ipsos found that across all income levels, at least 89% of Americans report making dinner either more or the same as at the start of the year.
Beyond saving money, home cooks can enjoy physical and mental health benefits. An April 2025 report from Greater Good magazine notes that making meals and eating at home can strengthen social bonds, provide a sense of empowerment, and sharpen focus. And with the shorter, colder days of fall and winter around the corner, these benefits are more important than ever.
Mainstays of the fall and winter months are soups, stews, and chilis. But cooking at home all the time can send even the most inventive chef into a culinary rut. Stacker compiled a list of soups, stews, and chili recipes from Allrecipes to expand your soup-cooking portfolio. Keep reading to see which of these represent some of your time-tested favorites—and which might be a new weekly staple in your household.
