This soup is inspired by one of my favourite childhood meals: canned mushroom soup with rice! This version offers the same creamy, comforting flavours while providing much greater nutritional value. The mushrooms here play more of an accent role, while the creamy soup features one of my favourite vegetables, kohlrabi. The creaminess comes from soaked…

Parsley Root, Apple & Hazelnut Soup
A month or two ago I ended up watching the Disney movie, Tangled, on TV (does anyone else love kids’ movies as much as I do?!). There was mention of a hazelnut soup in the movie and I was instantly intrigued. What else would be in this hazelnut soup? I decided to give it a…
Creamy Cashew, Carrot & Celery Root Soup
This soup is so luxuriously creamy thanks to the addition of soaked raw cashews. I was honestly amazed by how creamy this soup was- and its entirely vegan! This soup features very few ingredients and the flavours are fairly simple- though that does not take away from its deliciousness! Sometimes simple really is best. Prepare…
Vegetarian French Onion Soup
Even though it’s April, an ice storm has descended upon southern Ontario. We’re combating this cold, grey weather with some cozy French onion soup! This soup is a labour of love! Be sure to have some ski or swim goggles on hand before you begin chopping the onions! Patience is also a virtue when making…
Broccoli Green Curry Coconut Soup
This broccoli green curry coconut soup is an exotic and flavourful departure from the classic cream of broccoli soup. Aromatic garlic and ginger, curry paste and coconut milk come together to create a soup that is a far cry from the congealed goop in a can we all had growing up. No wonder broccoli gets…

This soup comes together in no time, with only 3 ingredients to chop: an onion, some garlic and a head of cauliflower. And…
Moroccan-spiced Carrot & Red Lentil Soup
I’ve been making a version of this soup for many years and it is my husband’s all-time favourite. I’ve tweaked the recipe over time to improve the nutritional balance (cue the lentils!). I absolutely love cooking with red lentils- they virtually disappear in dishes like soups (especially pureed ones), while providing a generous amount of…
Hearty Lentil-Vegetable Soup
There’s nothing more cozy and comforting on a cold day than a hot bowl of soup- don’t you agree? I made this soup on a Sunday and have thoroughly enjoyed eating it throughout the week…either a warming mug to fuel and fill my belly during the workday, or a steamy bowl in my pj’s in…
Celeriac, Parsnip & White Bean Soup
Have you every tried celeriac? This knobbly root vegetable is one I recently discovered myself – and fell in love. It has a delicate celery flavour with the heartiness of a root vegetable. It really is a must-try. This is what celeriac – also called celery root – looks like. Have a look next time…
Creamy Tomato-Cashew Soup with Herbs
Every year I say it, yet every year it takes me by surprise- how is summer over already? Okay, I suppose it’s not technically over until September 21st, but it sure has been feeling like fall these past few weeks, with cool (i.e. FREEZING!) evenings and the changing colours of the leaves. Gone are the…
