Bacon soup is a soup made with bacon. Generally a number of vegetables are added ^[1] and often a thickening agent such as pearl barley, lentils ^[2] or corn flour. It can be added to Italian minestrone soup to enhance the flavor. ^[3]

Many variations exist, which may incorporate primary ingredients such as cabbage, ^{[4] [5]} beans, ^[6] potato, ^[7] lentils, spinach, peas, cauliflower, broccoli, leeks, pumpkin ^[8] and rice. ^[9]

Bacon is a common addition to many soups including creamy soups, especially those with a mild flavor that will not overpower the bacon. ^[10]
