As the crisp November air settles in, nothing feels more comforting than a steaming bowl of soup made with fresh, local ingredients. Soup season is officially here—and this year, we are embracing new, creative flavours that combine nutrition, sustainability, and hearty satisfaction.
From grass-fed beef broths to pasture-raised chicken soups with seasonal produce, the trend for 2025 soups leans toward homemade, whole-food recipes that highlight quality ingredients from trusted sources.
Let’s explore the top trending soup ideas for November 2025—and how you can easily recreate them.
1. Bone Broth Renaissance: Grass-Fed Goodness in Every Sip
Bone broth continues to reign as a holistic wellness favourite in 2025. Made by simmering grass-fed and finished beef marrow bones, this nutrient-rich broth supports joint health, digestion, and immunity.
Our grass-fed marrow bones and soup bones make it easy to create a rich, golden broth at home. Simply roast the bones first, then simmer with onions, carrots, celery, apple cider vinegar, and herbs for 12–24 hours.
This year’s trend? Adding fermented ingredients or miso paste to boost probiotics and umami flavour. Many Canadians are also freezing bone broth into cubes for quick, single-serve wellness shots.
Pro Tip: Try blending your bone broth with roasted garlic and turmeric for an anti-inflammatory twist—perfect as a morning boost or soothing evening drink.
2. Cozy Chicken and Barley Soup with a Local Touch
The humble chicken soup gets a modern upgrade for 2025. Instead of noodles, Canadians are turning to whole grains like barley or farro for texture and nutrition.
Using our cage-free grain-fed chicken, you can make a soup that’s hearty yet wholesome. Simmer chicken thighs or drumsticks with bay leaves, onions, leeks, and thyme until tender. Add pearled barley and carrots for a rustic, stick-to-your-ribs meal.
Holistic nutritionists are calling this the ultimate “stress-relief soup”—the combination of collagen, whole grains, and minerals helps calm the body during colder months.
Flavour upgrade: Stir in a handful of fresh kale and finish with lemon juice for brightness.
3. Creamy Roasted Vegetable and Sausage Soup
Comfort food is trending this fall, and Canadians are finding creative ways to make indulgent soups healthy. Enter the roasted vegetable and sausage soup, featuring our heritage pork sausages or grass-fed beef sausages.
Start by roasting squash, sweet potatoes, and red peppers with olive oil until caramelized. Sauté sliced sausage, garlic, and onions in a large pot, then blend in the roasted veggies with chicken stock and a splash of cream (or coconut milk for a dairy-free option).
The 2025 spin? Smoky flavours and spice blends. Add smoked paprika, chipotle, or even a touch of maple syrup for a sweet-savoury finish. Serve with crusty sourdough bread for the ultimate cozy night in.
4. Mediterranean Beef and Lentil Soup
The trend is all about balance—combining high-quality animal proteins with legumes for extra fibre and nutrition.
This Mediterranean-inspired soup uses Farm2Fork’s grass-fed ground beef, lentils, diced tomatoes, and herbs like oregano and rosemary. It’s hearty, high in protein, and loaded with antioxidants.
Sauté garlic, onions, and celery, then brown your beef before adding lentils, tomatoes, and beef broth. Finish with fresh spinach and a drizzle of olive oil.
Nutrition experts love this soup for its blood-sugar balance and satiety—ideal for meal prep or freezing ahead.
Extra tip: Substitute ground lamb for a richer, more traditional Mediterranean flavour profile.
5. Thai-Inspired Chicken Coconut Soup (Tom Kha-Style)
Global fusion soups are huge this fall, and Thai-inspired Tom Kha is leading the trend. It’s creamy, spicy, and deeply aromatic—plus, it’s easy to make with our chicken breasts or thighs.
In a pot, combine coconut milk, chicken broth, lemongrass, ginger, and lime leaves. Add sliced chicken, mushrooms, and red chili. Finish with lime juice, fish sauce, and cilantro for that signature tangy depth.
Canadians love this soup for its immunity-boosting benefits and anti-inflammatory ingredients—perfect for cold and flu season.
For an extra protein boost, add free-run eggs, poached directly in the broth for a silky finish.
6. Cream of Turkey and Wild Rice Soup
Turkey isn’t just for Thanksgiving anymore—it’s a year-round comfort staple. In 2025, creamy turkey and wild rice soup is trending as a cozy way to repurpose leftovers while keeping things wholesome.
Using Farm2Fork’s organic turkey breast or thighs, cook the meat until tender, then shred and combine with onions, carrots, celery, wild rice, and a touch of cream.
This soup is naturally high in protein and minerals, and the wild rice adds an earthy flavour that pairs perfectly with poultry.
Make it even better: Add thyme, garlic, and a splash of dry white wine for depth. Freeze in portions for easy weekday lunches.
7. Spicy Ground Pork and Sweet Potato Soup
For those who like a little heat, spicy soups are a major trend this November. Ground pork’s rich flavour pairs beautifully with sweet potato’s natural sweetness, making this a comfort-food favourite.
Sauté ground pork with onions, garlic, and chili flakes. Add cubed sweet potatoes, tomatoes, and chicken broth, then simmer until thick and hearty. Top with cilantro or green onions for freshness.
The combination of sweet, spicy, and savoury has made this dish a hit among Canadian families looking for simple weeknight meals with a twist.
8. Farmhouse Vegetable Soup with Bone Broth Base
Vegetable soups are going back to basics—but with upgraded flavour and nutrition. Using a base of grass-fed bone broth, this classic gets new life.
Load it with seasonal November vegetables like carrots, turnips, cabbage, and parsnips. Add beans or lentils for extra heartiness and simmer until everything melds together into a soul-warming, farmhouse-style soup.
It’s rustic, simple, and the perfect way to clean out your fridge while staying nourished through the chillier months.
Optional addition: Add diced leftover roast beef or shredded chicken for an extra boost of protein.
9. Maple Bacon and Corn Chowder
Canadian flavours shine in this modern twist on chowder. Using bacon and grass-fed butter, this chowder balances smoky and sweet beautifully.
Cook chopped bacon until crisp, then sauté onions, garlic, and corn kernels in the drippings. Add diced potatoes, broth, and a touch of cream, finishing with a drizzle of pure maple syrup and cracked pepper.
This 2025 trend celebrates “comfort meets local”—Canadian ingredients transformed into feel-good classics.
10. Slow-Cooked Beef and Mushroom Soup
For weekend cooking or slow Sundays, slow-cooked soups are having a moment. Using grass-fed beef stew cubes, you can create a deeply flavourful soup with minimal effort.
Brown the beef, then add onions, garlic, mushrooms, carrots, and beef stock. Let it simmer for hours or toss it into a slow cooker until the meat is melt-in-your-mouth tender.
Add fresh thyme or rosemary before serving. It’s the kind of slow food that makes a cold November night feel warm and grounding.
