Carrot & Lime Soup
Generally I can take or leave carrots. They are always the last veggie I'd grab on a dip platter, and I really do not like them as big chunks in a salad. However, over the last few years I've started embracing them - but only if they are fresh, sweet and actually have taste (like any veg really). I enjoy them shredded (very important step) in a salad, roasted in my veggie bowls AND blended in soups. I think my distaste for them likely stemmed from the little rounded baby carr

Khao Soi {Northern Thai Soup}
I'm all about "Sunday Soups". There's something deeply satisfying and comforting about digging into a hot bowl of nutritious, brothy goodness, winding down the weekend and re-setting for the week ahead. And I'll admit, it's often consumed on the sofa whilst enjoying some show I'm highly addicted to. Yes, I know - mindless munching in front of the TV is a no no, but sometimes my dear friends, it's allowed. This was my meal this past Sunday, but make no mistake, it's delicious

Thai Curry and Lentil Soup {Spicy}
Hot dang this soup is good. Not only because of it's Thai flavours, which are probably my favourite type, but because it has some depth to it, a little more robust flavour profile than a simple broth and coconut milk base. The good news it's it's dead simple to make and doesn't require a lot of ingredients. But I do think a high quality curry paste is a must - it absolutely sets the stage for the soup. Really, it's necessary for all the curry dishes you are making at home. I

Creamy {Hubbard} Squash Soup
Soup season has officially arrived!! Although I may be somewhat (terribly) miffed that summer is over and an extremely cold winter is apparently upon us, I can at least drown my sorrows with a bowl and spoon. And if we're honest here, copious amounts of wine. Perhaps it's just the initial shock of summer ending that I have a knee jerk reaction to, and then settle in to cozy nights with warm soulful food, perfect slouchy socks, (OMG, have you seen these & these) burning firepl

Hot & Sour Ramen Soup
I started making this soup a few months ago ~ and my only complaint is that I didn't start making it years ago! I always figured hot & sour soup would be really time consuming and the broth would require an endless list of ingredients. As my husband likely isn't reading this - I can carry on, and say this: I was wrong. This recipe is easy and the list of ingredients is short. The broth is rich and flavourful and really only requires 3 ingredients. Sometimes, when I'm not fee

Asparagus Soup
It feels like I am going through a “less is more” phase in the kitchen. It probably has something to do with the fact that I’m 100%, completely, hands down, DONE with winter. I’m ready for a change. And while we are in this limbo, winter/spring season, I can’t be bothered to cook. I’ll admit it. I’m lazy. While I eagerly anticipate warmer weather and spring, I seem to be content not doing much else whilst waiting for it! This asparagus soup is right up my lazy alley. But it’s
