Hearty Red Lentil Soup

Hearty Red Lentil Soup by John Spottiswood

This is a wonderfully flavored soup that our whole family really enjoyed. I'm a huge fan of traditional Turkish Red Lentil soup which has more exotic flavors, but I was impressed by the down home goodness of this soup. I had three medium sized helpings, and even then I nibbled a bit more as I was putting the remainder into the…

Moroccan Butternut Squash Soup

Moroccan Butternut Squash Soup by John Spottiswood

This is a fantastic winter soup to serve at home or for a party. It's got the sweetness of butternut squash soups you've had in the past, but with some spice and salt to counterbalance the sweetness. I loved it and hope you will too.This is adapted from Paula Wolfert's The Food of Morocco.

Amazing Red Lentil and Tomato Soup

Amazing Red Lentil and Tomato Soup by John Spottiswood

I never thought I would have a red lentil soup that could match the Turkish red lentil soup that I have been served in Turkish restaurants and that I've learned to make. So I had low expectations for this Indian spiced version. It completely destroyed my expectations and was absolutely delicious. It was great last night, and I had…

Mexican Chicken Stew

Mexican Chicken Stew by John Spottiswood

I adapted this from a popular food network recipe and served it at a ski trip up in Tahoe. Everyone loved it. We served it as leftovers alongside the another meal the next night, and almost everyone had a second bowl and said it tasted as good if not better! This is pretty similar to posole, but perhaps a bit less soupy than most.…

Greek Fish Soup Avgolemono

Greek Fish Soup Avgolemono by John Spottiswood

The Greeks supposedly invented fish stew and there are many versions of the dish. This version, which I adapted from a recipe in the Frugal Gourmet's Three Ancient Cuisines (a great book), is really phenomenal. We served this during a holiday party with greek salad and spanakopita. Friends of mine who have made regular chicken…

Almost A Borscht Soup

Almost A Borscht Soup by Glenn

I wanted a hearty soup for lunch and had a left-over half head of boiled cabbage. What else could I do but go wild adding borschtish ingredients until I almost lost track. Bottom line, if you don't have an ingredient just leave it out or substitute something else. Have fun and be surprised, like I was, that this came out tasting…

Italian Wedding Soup with Turkey Meatballs

Italian Wedding Soup with Turkey Meatballs by Salad Foodie

Italian-American in origin, this soup was really misnamed. “Wedding soup” is a mistranslation of the Italian language for 'minestra maritata', a reference to the fact that greens and meat go well together. (Well that’s a good marriage isn’t it?) I looked at several recipes of this popular soup, selected aspects of a few, added some…

Red Lentil & Carrot soup is truly a soup for all seasons

Red Lentil & Carrot soup is truly a soup for all seasons by Nick Roche

With the arrival of warmer weather, it's all too often that soup begins to take a back seat to its more fair weather friend, "la salade". Well, the time has come to break from traditional habits. Soup is perfectly comfortable as the days and nights warm up. In fact, if you carefully pick and choose the type of soup, it makes perfect…

Hearty, nourishing, delicious, nutritious, and dead easy to make.

This phytochemical rich garlic broth will fight off any viral vampires you have to fight,…

Vegan Simple Pea Soup

Vegan Simple Pea Soup by Jill

This simple pea soup is excellent cooked as well as raw! This can be used as a base for so many more vegetables too! Use your imagination and try shredding some potatoes, celery, corn, etc. I like to add seitan. Let me know how yours comes out. I"ve only made this using my Vita-mix but I'm sure a regular blender will work…

Creamy Vegan Cauliflower Soup

Creamy Vegan Cauliflower Soup by The Blender Girl

For a simple, impressive, and downright delicious soup, you just can’t go past this creamy cauliflower blend. I never tell people what is in it, cause it is so much fun listening to all of the creative guesses. Parsnip? Cream? Onion? What exactly makes this soup taste so good? The cashews! Just make sure you puree the nuts really well…

Gluten Free Cream of Mushroom Soup

Gluten Free Cream of Mushroom Soup by Shawn Christopher

I love Cream of Mushroom Soup! When I decided to go gluten free to support my Spouse I didn't realize the amount of things that had gluten in them. I cannot go without cream of mushroom soup not one day longer, so, tonight we had cream of mushroom soup. This is my first try at cream of mushroom soup and it's a keeper!
