When it comes to soup made with pork, I’m used to fatty, heavy, sour and pretty hard on digestion soups as that’s how mom used to cook pork soup for us. She used the fattest meats and in all honesty, her soups truly taste like heaven! But they are soooo unhealthy! So when my family asked for a pork soup recipe I decided it’s time to make a pork chop soup, the way I always wanted: lighter but without sacrificing good taste.

Using pork chops might not be as healthy as using chicken or turkey and is definitely not the best option if you compare it with a vegetable soup! But I think pork chop soup is the best option if you must use pork. And sometimes you really need some pork meat in your life, am I right? Life is short and we must live to the max and this pork soup recipe is one of my favorite way of having a blast when it comes to culinary options.

The meat is tender and savory and the vegetables add so much flavor and this pork chop soup comes together pretty quickly, making it a fuss-free recipe that will soon become a family favorite! I decided to add just a bit of sour cream in my bowl with pork chop soup and I also wanted to spice things up a bit (more like a lot, really!) with some pickled chili peppers. It was the perfect Sunday dinner!

When making soups, I normally roast the vegetables first to give them a bit of a smoky flavor that will then transfer to the soup, making it a lot more flavorful and yummy. This is optional but it does make the difference between a blah soup and a lip-smacking one! Just my two cents here.

  1. When are the potatoes supposed to be added? That ingredient isn’t listed in any of the steps. I decided to add them with the roasted vegetables at step four.
