Chinese New Year Dumpling Soup
Being that it’s the Chinese New Year, I thought I’d make a soup to fit the theme. This Dumpling Soup takes zero prep time, 15 minutes of cook time and then all you have to do is slurp and enjoy it! Ingredients: 1 bag pre-shredded cabbage 8 cups vegetable broth 1 bag frozen dumplings – [...]
Detox Soup
Yes, I said it. The *D* word: Detox. Gah! Let it be known that I’m totally against any form of trendy diet detox (restricting food, cleanses, liquid diets and other extreme measures). Our lungs, kidneys and liver are the body’s major detoxification system and work far better than any kooky crash diet. I believe if [...]
Italian Bread Soup (aka Pizza Soup)
It’s rare I make a recipe twice. There are just too many good ones out there to try! Even Funk noticed when we sat down to dinner last night and commented, “We’ve had this before, right? You never make a recipe twice. And…it tastes like pizza.” Which is pretty much exactly the conversation we had [...]
Recipe ReDux: Chickpea Noodle Soup from Happy Herbivore
This month’s Recipe Redux theme was “Putting the P(ea) in Potluck” and we were instructed to use legumes in a party-friendly recipe or festive dish. I guess I misread the challenge because instead of making a festive dish, I had my eye on Happy Herbivore’s Chickpea Noodle Soup recipe, and thought it’d be fun to [...]
Butternut Squash, Barley and Kale Stew
Over the weekend, Funk and I joined friends for a day of imbibing! We went to a tour and tasting at Westport Rivers Winery, then a tour and tasting at Just Beer brewery, followed by lunch at a little hole-in-the wall restaurant called Bayside. As soon as I saw the specials menu, I knew what [...]
Homemade Gazpacho
I’m loving the fact that Thursdays are usually my work-from-home days because it coincidently falls on the same day as the Brookline Farmers Market (and my favorite gym class at noon – sweet!). Now that I’m newly in love with this farmers market, I want to go as much as possible! I went on a [...]
Kale and Chickpea Soup
A few weeks ago I made this Kale and Chickpea Soup, modified from Vegetarian Times’ White Bean and Kale Soup. Because I’ve been transitioning between my old computer and new one, I totally forgot about this recipe I wanted to share! I’m also still trying to get the hang of blogging from a Mac. I [...]
Curried Shrimp and Mango Soup
Note: I just got a Mac (yay!) and it doesn’t work with my usual blogging program so I’m trying to figure out how to get my pretty layouts back. In the meantime, I leave you with this poorly laid out post that I can’t figure out how to fix. Whoopsie! I’m slightly embarassed to hit [...]
Guest Post: Curried Butternut Squash Soup
This Curried Butternut Squash and Sweet Potato Soup is brought to you by Amory! I love curry and one of my favorite dishes is a homemade, super easy curried butternut squash and sweet potato soup. You can pretty much add anything you want or have left over to this soup and it will only make [...]
