Recipe developer Lindsay Cola is the brain behind Tipps in the Kitch, a popular local source for easy weeknight meals, toddler-friendly snacks, and five-ingredient recipes. We challenged Cola to create three broth-based soups, one of her favorite meals for a cozy night in. “I love the versatility of soup and how it can be made in one pot,” she says. “Plus, leftovers are fantastic!” Though any broth is suitable as a base, Cola uses bone broth—a great source of protein that supports joint, hair, skin, and nail health—to amp up the nutritional value of her meals.
