#soups-and-stews

For one, I can have a pot of soup or stew going while I'm tapping away on my laptop, and when the weather takes a frigid turn, it saves me from turning on a space heater. (I'm nothing if not frugal about central heating!) But even if I didn't have the luxury of working from home, I'd still keep hearty soups and stews in heavy rotation for dinner because they're excellent make-ahead meals and great for freezing.

We all face the same question every day: What's for dinner? Whether you're cooking for just yourself or a family of four, figuring out what to make can be a task in itself. Naturally, we were curious what people across the country were cooking. Based on where you live, what time of year it is, and what the weather is like, the answer may be different. So we pulled data on the most searched dinner recipes per state within the last 30 days.
