Creamy Chickpea Lentil Soup with Kale

Posted on February 19, 2019 | 6 comments

Recently, I have been lamenting spring. However, spring goes as quickly as it comes, so I’m trying to live in the moment and enjoy the cool weather before summer’s heat sets in. This creamy chickpea lentil soup is the perfect way to enjoy the last of winter’s cool weather.

Do you ever find yourself wishing you were somewhere else? Enjoying the moment is an important life skill, and I find sometimes it takes practice. I totally connect to life through food, so I stay in the moment by making seasonal dishes. Continue reading →

Creamy Carrot Ginger Soup

Posted on February 1, 2019 | 16 comments

This week, the temperatures here have been in the single digits (not as cold as many places, but still cold for us!). When it’s cold outside, a nice warm bowl of soup is in order. This creamy carrot ginger soup is what’s for dinner!

This soup is more filling than a traditional bowl of carrot soup. It has a hidden ingredient that adds protein, and an extra layer of creaminess! Continue reading →

Creamy Lemon Dill Orzo Soup

Posted on January 15, 2019 | 2 comments

This creamy lemon dill orzo soup recipe has a surprising ingredient. When I see creamy soup recipes, I expect to see that some form of dairy makes it creamy. Milk, sour cream, cheese, or all of the above, for example.

Instead, this recipe uses eggs to achieve its velvety, creamy texture. For a long time I shied away from recipes that cook eggs by tempering them in hot liquid. It sounds scary if you’ve never done it. Continue reading →

Is everyone ready for the holidays?! This will be my last post before Christmas, so have a Merry Christmas everyone! Today’s recipe is a light soup, mushroom kale miso soup.

Miso soup is traditionally an appetizer because it is mainly composed of flavorful broth. I loaded my version up with a few more veggies to make it a light meal. Continue reading →

African Peanut Stew with Lentils and Quinoa

Posted on December 14, 2018 | 16 comments

African peanut stew is a traditional dish from western Africa where ground nuts are used to flavor and thicken sauces. I made my African peanut stew with lentils and quinoa for plenty of plant-based protein.

Lentils and quinoa might be one of my favorite vegetarian protein combinations. Their flavors and textures work well together. I also use this combination in my favorite stuffed peppers recipe. Continue reading →

Slow Cooker Southwest Sweet Potato Soup

Posted on November 30, 2018 | 10 comments

The first time I made this slow cooker southwest sweet potato soup, I was trying to make a vegetarian taco soup. This soup did not taste like tacos to me, but I loved the flavors, so I reinvented it with a new name.

Peppers and onions make the base for this soup. They are the most important ingredients because they give the broth all of its flavor. Continue reading →

Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato Soup

Posted on October 4, 2018 | 16 comments

Today I am sharing a recipe for roasted red pepper and tomato soup that is stupid easy to make, and loaded with rich flavors.

My husband doesn’t really like peppers, but he enjoyed a bowl of roasted red pepper soup at a wedding we attended recently. I knew I had to recreate the dish because we had found a way we could both enjoy red peppers! Continue reading →

Creamy Garlic Potato Soup with 4 cloves per serving

Posted on January 30, 2018 | 4 comments

My husband adores garlic. I use it in almost ever dish we make, but it’s rarely the main flavor component. In this creamy garlic potato soup, I used four cloves per serving!

The garlic is added three different times, to add great garlicky flavor with every step. First it’s sauted with some onion until caramelized, then I add more with the broth to simmer. Continue reading →

Vegetarian Slow Cooker Three Bean Chili

Posted on January 6, 2018 | 14 comments

Chili is one of those recipes that you can make in a million (and a half) different ways. I love my chili recipe, and needed to update the recipe for my readers. This vegetarian slow cooker three bean chili is a classic recipe you’ll use again and again.

In this recipe, I use classic kidney beans, black beans, and refried beans. The refried beans act as a thickener and add a creamy texture that binds all other flavors. Continue reading →

Roasted Butternut Squash Chowder

Posted on December 29, 2017 | 10 comments

Calling out to all butternut squash fans, this soup is for you! My roasted butternut squash chowder has intense butternut squash flavor in a creamy, luxurious comfort food!

I roasted the squash and stirred it into the chowder at the last minute to help it to hold its unique flavor profile in this chowder. In leftovers, the squash will become more mellow and start to take on the flavor of the chowder. Continue reading →
