Baked Soup with Biscuits

Got leftover soup? If so you can make a delicious dinner by combining homemade soup with a baked biscuit topping! So easy, you can even let the kids help make Baked Soup and Biscuits for dinner.



Baked Soup with Biscuits? 

This baked soup idea is especially handy for those busy, busy times when everyone is hungry and there are a million other things that need to get done! Like laundry. And not to put too much on your chore list but isn't it yard work season? Or how about relaxing and getting caught up with the family. Or, just taking a moment for yourself. 

So this Baked Soup with Biscuits dinner idea is also handy because it is delicious, frugal, and a good way to re-present soup for dinner. Soup for dinner seems to have a second rate reputation for not being a real meal! I am not certain why because Beef Stew is a favorite of many, and what exactly is beef stew? I will tell you, simply put, a stew is a pot of soup with less broth! See what I mean?

So I got the idea to change all that! 

Soup and biscuits are lovely together so why not make it a one dish dinner? You have a couple of different ways to serve Baked Soup with Biscuits. One way is in individual bowls, and another is a larger casserole that each person can dish up as much as their hunger dictates! 

What kinds of soups would work good for this dinner idea? 

Truthfully any soup works for this dinner idea! But a biscuit baked over a bowl of a meatless soup would not be any different than that same bowl of soup with a biscuit or piece of cornbread on the side. 


I hope you keep this dinner idea in mind for a quick dinner, as a time saver and a frugal way to lend a hand to the food budget! 


Some additional thoughts on this idea

This dinner idea works best with soups that have a thickened broth base. Or you could hold back part of the broth, if desired. 

To thicken the soup, make a standard roux and stir it in, heat until thickened and proceed!

Ingredients needed for this recipe:

  • homemade soup, ready to go
  • Whole Wheat Self-Rising Flour, our recipe found here.
  • mayonnaise
  • cheese
  • milk
You will also need the following:
  • medium-sized mixing bowl
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • stirring spoon
  • 2 qt. baking pan/casserole
Now we are ready to begin!
