My apologies for the lack of contact over the last few weeks! My insistence on a decent summer holiday resulted in a slight social media break. Although this created a bit of soupy silence, I have returned with some great new soup ideas and will be sharing the resulting recipes with you soon. The first … Continue reading Strawberry soup – a cheat’s version!
My recipe for 'cheesy' cannellini bean soup came about on a very dull, miserable, wet day. I knew I needed to do some grocery shopping, but preferred the thought of staying put and catching up with some reading. I didn't even have enough fresh veg to make 'Fridge soup' but a quick look in my … Continue reading ‘Cheesy’ bean soup
Do you remember Sarah's 'Everything but the kitchen sink vegan ramen'? The first stage of that recipe involved the unlikely combination of boiled parsnip and sun dried tomatoes. The result was a wonderfully rich, sweet base - perfect for all the other flavours that were added. I really enjoyed it and started thinking about other … Continue reading Thai style broth
Leek and potato soup won't win any prizes for presentation, but boy is it tasty. This classic soup is easy to make in under 30 minutes - very handy if you have unexpected guests. It also freezes well and I tend to have a few portions in my freezer 'just in case'. Tasty, easy, quick … Continue reading Leek and Potato Soup

That’s my kind of card!I only have a note of the recipe so can’t embed a … Continue reading Spiced Parsnip Soup
At last! Sarah from @bright_copper_kettles gave me her recipe a few weeks ago now and I’ve been dying to try it. So why the wait? Well...Sarah suggests Grape-Nuts as an optional ingredient. I haven’t had Grape-Nuts for over a decade so thought I’d give that option a go. Could I find them in my local … Continue reading Sarah’s ‘Everything but the kitchen sink’ vegan ramen
Look at the colour! What’s not to love about such a green and vibrant soup? The last two recipes I’ve shared with you have been really hearty and could definitely be a meal in themselves. Today’s soup is much lighter and more easily eaten as part of a larger meal, although I will be having … Continue reading Pea, spinach and mint soup
My Asian style broth is an old favourite that I come back to year after year. I just realised that this has become a real January staple in my house. I assume that’s because it is full of fresh tastes and textures, low in fat, low in carbs and still has a lovely warmth to … Continue reading Asian style broth
Chestnut Soup I originally shared this post last January but I thought it would be good to share it before Christmas, as it really is a great option for the festive period. I also updated it with some ingredient swaps to ensure it is vegan friendly. My original post is below and I have just … Continue reading Chestnut soup
