Lentil-Potato Soup
It feels like Fall!
That means soup.
I was just commenting to my husband yesterday how depressing it can be to rarely please all five members of the family with the same meal. It seems that someone always has a complaint about something.
Well, gigantic surprise, every single person loved this soup…
Summer Enchilada Casserole
We've got a full house right now: husband, son, two daughters, step-daughter and me. While only my 4-year-old son still eats meat, the rest of us still have diets that vary in some from one person to another. My husband still eats seafood (though almost no shrimp now). My step-daughter eats dairy, e…
Barley Soup
I haven't made barley soup in ages because I used to love my pre-vegan version that contained turkey bacon. I used to try to recreate a barley soup that I ate in Switzerland years ago. I came pretty close. Well, close enough.
My girls always loved the barley soup, so I decided to make a vegan versio…
Chickpea lentil stew
After a couple weeks of pasta-based meals (to please my family), I was desperate for soup!
This chickpea-lentil stew is quick and easy and wonderful on a chilly winter night. Of course, as lemony as it is, it works in the summer, too. I adapted the recipe from Dreena Burton's Eat, Drink and be Vegan
Corn chowder with walnut cream
I've been wanting to try walnut cream to replace cashew cream in some recipes. First, I love walnuts. Second, walnuts are high in omega-3 fatty acids, which vegans have a hard time getting not eating fish. Flax seeds are the best vegetarian source. (Fish don't actually make omega-3 fatty acids. They…
Pumpkin Soup
This was a last-minute soup tonight. I opened the cupboard for something else, saw the can of pumpkin sitting there, and decided to add soup to the dinner menu. If this had been all I was cooking, it would have been ready in under 30 minutes. But it tastes like you slaved away all day. You can whip …
Asian noodle soup
After the muffin recipe yesterday, I know you're just dying for another soup recipe! I've got one for you. Something a little different this time. This one is nut-free and gluten-free. If you want it soy-free, just leave out the tamari (wheat-free soy sauce). Of course, it's dairy-free, egg-free and…
Cream of what?
I'm calling this Cream of I've-Got-to-Use-These-Veggies-Before-I-Go-to-the-Store-Tomorrow Soup. I was going to make a coconut-curry-carrot soup, but then I noticed that I still had a quarter head of cabbage and half a bunch of white asparagus. And I've got to go to the store tomorrow. So I needed to…
Garlicky potato-leek soup
This soup has been an old standby for years. I've been making it for so long by rote feeling that writing it down may be difficult. What I particularly like about it is the garlic. Sometimes I roast the garlic earlier in the day. Other times I just sauté it a bit before sautéing the leeks. What's mo…
Borscht
I had some beautiful beets and a nice head of cabbage, so I made borscht for dinner. My 3-year-old son kept eating the raw grated beets! Lots of recipes for borscht that I've seen call for using a dollop of sour cream per bowl when you serve the borscht. But I mixed some thick cashew cream into the …
Cream of Mushroom Soup
Everyone in the family (husband, 3-year-old son, 13-year-old daughter and 15-year-old daughter) loved this soup tonight. It was fairly quick to make, though it does require a soup pot and a skillet. I used whole mushrooms, so I also spent a while slicing. You could buy pre-sliced mushrooms or use a …
Corn chowder
So dinner was easy and fairly quick. I had a cup and a half of thick cashew cream in the fridge needing to be used (I need to finish it tomorrow at the latest), some bell peppers, potatoes, the ubiquitous carrots and celery, and some frozen corn. Corn chowder it was. Thick and creamy with a smoky ch…
Cream of cauliflower soup
I experimented with thick cashew cream in a new soup today, and it turned out great. I knew it would be a cream of cauliflower soup, but I had a few other itms around that I threw in for the extra nutrients: golden sweet potato and celery.
Total prep and cook time was about 1 hour 15 minutes. It mad…
