There’s nothing better than curling up on the couch on a chilly winter night with a warm bowl of soup. Some of my favorite soups to make when it’s cold outside are menudo and caldo de pollo. But sometimes, making soup ends up being more laborious than you anticipated\u2014cue the dump soup. These 20 dump-and-forget-about-it soups are perfect for when life gets a little too hectic and you just can’t be bothered with making dinner when you get back from work. Keep this list in your back pocket to get hands-off, delicious dinners on the table in no time.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
This soup perfectly captures what a dump soup is: simple, easy, and very comforting. Dump all the ingredients in the instant pot, then walk away. This soup is packed with beans, veggies, and a nice touch of nacho cheese.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
According to Chris Mueller, who submitted this recipe, this soup is “a creamy, cheddar, cheesy soup sauce cooked with chicken and a little seasoning in a slow cooker. This is an easy way to enjoy a great chicken dinner, even when you run out of time! The trick is to not lift the lid while cooking. Make with rice, pasta, or potatoes.”\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
A good rule of thumb for this soup is if it’s a good topping on a taco, it’ll be great on this soup. While the recipe calls for canned chicken breasts, an Allrecipes member recommends swapping in rotisserie chicken for extra flavor.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
You just can’t go wrong with a classic bean soup. Beans, veggies, and a nice touch of chicken bouillon make up this soup. And the best part? The Instant Pot does all the work for you!\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

When you crave a cheeseburger, it’s easy to just go out and grab the first one you see. But why do that when you could encapsulate the flavors in a hearty soup? “Creamy, filling on a cold winter’s night. My family loves this, we have been making it for about 5 years now, I was surprised to find it on this site,” user Cindy Carnes writes. But if you’re like me and prefer a thicker soup, Carnes has the right method. “To thicken this, use potato flakes, it works great! The potato flakes make it a richer, thicker soup with substance.”\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

User CKINCAID1 received this recipe from her husband’s grandmother and, if you grew up eating corn chowder, it’s sure to invoke some childhood memories. “It was amazingly simple to put together. Prep time was easy as well as clean up. What an amazing flavor to capture after only 45 minutes from start to finish,” one Allrecipes member commented. “I have written it on a recipe card and it’s in my recipe box already. I plan to freeze individual servings for future meals.”\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
While this recipe calls for chicken breasts, I always simplify the recipe by using rotisserie chicken. It’s a great way to infuse a ton of flavor in half the cooking time.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
“This is without a doubt the best soup I have ever had. I made it exactly as it was written and I changed nothing,” user Muzzie commented. “I put some aside for my Mom but it was so good that I ended up eating mine and hers too. My bad. So thank you Jennifer for a wonderful soup recipe.”\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
If you need to use up some sauerkraut, this is the best way to use it. Since sauerkraut is fermented, it lends the soup a slightly tangy flavor. In case you want the soup sooner, there’s an alternative cooking method in a Dutch oven that comes together in only an hour!\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
