How All 7 of Trader Joe's Most Popular Soups Actually Stack Up

With the chilly weather, it’s the perfect time for a warm bowl of hearty soup. Trader Joe’s has a ton of options to choose from, and there’s something for every type of soup-lover to enjoy. These soups are largely loved this time of year as it's one of their better-selling products that many customers look for when they shop. We’ve rounded up a list of our favorites that are backed up by other customers online as being the best of the best.

1. Tomato Feta Soup

This refrigerated soup makes many customers’ favorite lists for its blend of feta cheese with acidic tomatoes. This soup mixes bold tomato flavor with a gooey cheese, perfect for dipping grilled cheese sandwiches. It’s the perfect bowl to warm you up, inside and out and is consistently one of the favorites. 

2. Kettle Cooked Chicken Soup

You can’t go wrong with a classic chicken noodle soup, and this Trader Joe’s staple is no exception. The kettle-cooked chicken soup has herbs and spices that take this comfort food to the next level. Smart shopping hack — it's like having your own homemade soup without all the work!

3. Lentil Soup with Ancient Grains

Here’s another fan favorite in the refrigerated section. The lentil soup is a thicker blend with plenty of ancient grains and lentils for an earthy flavor. Plus, it’s high in fiber, making this a healthier meal for those cold winter nights. This is one that won't be for everyone, but we think it's delicious.

4. French Onion Soup

You can find this in the frozen section at Trader Joe’s, and it comes with two individual servings. This French onion soup has swiss cheese and croutons with its slowly-simmered onions for a world of flavor. Customers rave about this vegetarian soup, so it’s worth trying during your next shopping trip. It's not one of our favorites, though. 

5. Pumpkin Butternut Squash Bisque

This is one seasonal soup you’ll want to grab while it’s around. Customers enjoy this pumpkin butternut squash bisque for its blend of fall flavors and rich, creamy texture. It’s also a sweeter soup than most on this list, which is a plus for some shoppers.

6. New England Clam Chowder

Even native New Englanders love this authentic clam chowder! This soup is rich, savory, and creamy, which is what many aficionados agree makes a perfect clam chowder. It’s full of clam bites, potatoes, and a thick broth for a New England-style meal any time. It's hard to go wrong with this one if you enjoy a good chowder. 

7. Organic Tomato & Roasted Red Pepper Soup

This is another tomato soup that many Trader Joe’s fans love. This soup blends tomatoes and roasted red peppers for a bit of heat and a ton of flavor. Try this with a sprinkle of Parmesan or a loaf of freshly made bread and you'll be able to take it to the next level.

Bottom line

From their refrigerated section to the pantry aisle, Trader Joe’s has a whole world of soups to try. These are quick and affordable meals that can keep you warm and toasty this winter and could help save money on groceries. Which one will you be trying first? We think that it's all about personal choice but you may want to start with the classic chicken soup if you want to play it safe with a comfort food.
