ANTI-INFLAMMATORY INDIAN SPICED SOUP
All over North America. It’s been so very cold as we roll into 2025. On a frigid afternoon, dealing with severe inflammation in my left hand (due to a cut on my knuckle that became infected after repeatedly injuring it), I needed some food therapy. The result?
I created this soup I am absolutely crazy for. It’s thick like a stew, has a good spicy kick and is a perfect, warming, comforting bowl, sure to be a keeper recipe. I urge you to make it asap. The numerous spices and vegetables make this soup medicinal on so many levels. Its abundant with anti-inflammatory power and is soothing, comforting and satisfying. You may need seconds. I have every time I make it.

Soup is a proverbial and warming comfort food that you can make quickly and with minimal effort or ingredients. This is a simple and yummy blend that tastes cheesy with the addition of the nutritional yeast and miso. Don’t skip this if you have them for you are sure to notice the flavor impact.

SPRING GREEN MINESTRONE
When you are in-need of a warming meal, and in-need of it in a hurry this recipe is just what you need. (How is that for neediness?) Haha!
It was a frigid cold period here in eastern Canada when I created this soup. Looking at what I had on hand (as I had no desire to leave my warm home), a take on Minestrone soup was my aim and I think you are gonna love this as much as I do. You can vary the beans, the greens and pasta for your favorites or your current kitchen stock. Topping with the Parmesan Crumble or nutritional yeast is so good. Be sure to do it.

THAI BUTTERNUT SQUASH n' LENTIL SOUP
Soup tends to be a haphazard creation in my kitchen with this one inspired by a recipe I’d seen in a magazine some time ago. It’s one of my fondly touted crazy good recipes and has everything you need to fall in love with – sass, spice, warmth, comfort and a little of that ‘need to have more’ longing. Thankfully it makes a large amount and if you’re smart you’ll stash a serving or two in the freezer when a 911 emergency call arrives – it’s pure, blissful and nourishing comfort food.
If you are a real Thai food fan be sure to use the lemon grass and kaffir lime leaves for they take this soup to the top in my view. Wowing our taste buds is such an act of self honoring right?
