We've packed them with plenty of protein and fresh vegetables to keep you feeling nourished and satisfied. You can also use frozen or canned vegetables in a pinch. From cozy chicken soups to Ravioli & Vegetable Soup, these Mediterranean diet recipes are quick, warming and come together in one pot. 01 of 14 Slow-Cooker Chicken & Chickpea Soup View Recipe This set-it-and-forget-it slow-cooker recipe simmers away all day so you come home to a warm and healthy dinner the whole family will love. Using bone-in chicken is the key to making rich soup without adding broth. 02 of 14 Vegan Cabbage Soup View Recipe This vegan soup recipe is surprisingly easy to make. The flavorful broth is spiked with garlic, tomatoes and a hint of coriander. Just slice and dice your cabbage and fennel and you'll be enjoying this quick healthy soup in no time. 03 of 14 Ravioli & Vegetable Soup View Recipe Fresh or frozen ravioli cook in minutes and turn this light vegetable soup into a main course. Look for whole-wheat or whole-grain ravioli in the refrigerated or frozen section of the supermarket. Tortellini can be used instead of ravioli as well. 04 of 14 Slow-Cooker Pasta e Fagioli Soup Freezer Pack View Recipe Your favorite restaurant soup just got easier and healthier with this freezer-to-crock-pot recipe. If you keep a special bottle of olive oil on hand for stand-out dishes, this is the recipe to pull it out for. The headiness of the fruity olive oil truly elevates the flavors in this Italian meal-prep slow-cooker soup. 05 of 14 White Bean Soup with Tomato & Shrimp View Recipe With capers and olives, this heart-healthy soup draws inspiration from Italian puttanesca sauce. Serve with crusty whole-grain bread to soak up the broth. 06 of 14 Hearty Chickpea & Spinach Stew View Recipe This satisfying stew comes together in a snap. Mashed chickpeas add body to the broth, and tomato paste adds a savory note without piling on the sodium. To simplify the prep, look for chopped fresh onion and shredded carrot or a soup starter mix in the produce section. 07 of 14 Sausage, Brussels Sprout & Potato Soup View Recipe Bake up some Manchego cheese toasts and uncork a bottle of Ribera del Duero to enjoy alongside this healthy pot of soup. Both sweet and hot Italian sausage work well. 08 of 14 Pasta & Chickpea Soup (Pasta e ceci) View Recipe This thick soup is full of chickpeas, tomatoes, fresh rosemary and pasta. Convenient pantry items makes it the perfect solution for harried weeknights. To make this soup vegetarian simply swap reduced-sodium vegetable broth for the beef broth. 09 of 14 Chicken & White Bean Soup View Recipe Once again, rotisserie chickens can relieve the dinner-rush pressure, especially in this Italian-inspired soup that cries out for a piece of crusty bread and a glass of red wine. 10 of 14 Chickpea, Chorizo & Spinach Soup View Recipe Chorizo lends this soup inspired by ingredients popular around the Mediterranean a smoky paprika flavor, and since it's sautéed first, much of the fat is drained away. Be sure to buy dry-cured, salami-style Spanish chorizo, not soft, raw Mexican-style sausage by the same name. 11 of 14 Slow-Cooker Mediterranean Diet Stew View Recipe This tomato, chickpea and kale stew is a healthy dinner chock-full of hearty vegetables. A drizzle of olive oil to finish carries the flavors of this easy vegan crock-pot stew. Swap out the chickpeas for white beans for a different twist, or try collards or spinach in place of the kale. Any way you vary it, this stew is sure to go into heavy rotation when you are looking for healthy crock-pot recipes. 12 of 14 Shrimp & Fish Stew View Recipe This fish and shrimp stew is often served over crostini or toast. With less than 200 calories per serving, it makes a great diet lunch or light dinner. 13 of 14 Hearty Minestrone View Recipe This version of the Italian classic soup Minestrone is packed with leeks, potatoes, beans, zucchini, spinach and orzo, making it perfect for a hearty lunch or supper on a cold winter's night. To make a vegetarian version use vegetable rather than chicken broth. Top each bowl with freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano for a zesty burst of flavor. 14 of 14 Slow-Cooker Spanish Chickpea Soup View Recipe This easy soup recipe is inspired by cocido, the hearty stew of assorted meats, chickpeas and vegetables considered a national dish of Spain. Each region, family and restaurant has its own variation, but this slow-cooker soup has enough meat to satisfy the carnivores and enough vegetables to make it healthy. Ask for a 4-ounce slab of Serrano ham or prosciutto at your deli counter instead of buying slices. If you don't have a 6-quart (or larger) slow cooker, opt for the stovetop variation instead.
