What comes to mind when you think of broccoli cheese soup? Comfort food, delicious, rich, indulgent, cheesy, creamy, delicious. Yes, me too! The last thing that comes to mind when we think of broccoli cheese soup, is healthy. I mean yes there is broccoli in there, so there is some veggies with nutritional value in it. BUT let's be honest, broccoli cheese soup is just an excuse to eat watered down cheese dip. I know, the truth hurts sometimes. Don't get me wrong I LOVE broccoli cheese … [Read more...]
15 Minute Creamy Tomato Basil Soup
First soup of the season! HEY FALL, I am officially ready for you now! I have my cozy bowl of hot soup to keep me warm during a chilly 50 degree day!

Really, I'm not complaining - I will enjoy end of summer weather for as long as it decides to grace me with it's presence. I love you … [Read more...]

It's time for a big healing bowl of Slow Cooker Chicken and Wild Rice Soup! Put on your cozy sweater and slippers and get settled in. Nothing beats a hot bowl of chicken soup, am I right?

Slow Cooker Butternut Squash Soup
Hi, would you like some Slow Cooker Butternut Squash Soup that's super creamy, slightly sweet, and that highly resembles Panera's autumn squash soup that I am obsessed with? YES PLEASE! I have problem. I LOVE buying all of the winter squash - well okay, I love EATING it even more - BUT I tend to buy a bunch of it because it lasts FOREVER and oh the possibilities. Then I wind up with piles of squash on my counter and I don't get to eating it for a long time because LIFE happens. And because … [Read more...]

Easy Gazpacho
I know, I know. It's the beginning of September and instead of posting a recipe about pumpkin or chili I am posting a recipe for Easy Gazpacho, a cold, refreshing soup that is generally made and enjoyed during blazing hot summer days! I promise the pumpkin recipes, baking recipes, and chilis are all coming your way before you know it. But for now, let's cherish this soup that's made with all the fresh, late summer veggies (yes, it's still technically summer) while our afternoons are still warm … [Read more...]
Dairy Free Salmon Chowder (GF)
I vow that this is the last soup I will make until fall. Okay, I can't exactly make that promise. But it is the last soup that I have planned for a while. Are you shocked? Me, too. As you know, I detest milk, but I love a good seafood chowder. Chowders generally contain some heavy cream; it's pretty much essential to a good chowder. So, I made it my personal challenge to make a dairy free chowder that tastes as good as the dairy version. Do you want to know the secret? Cashew milk. … [Read more...]

Even though it is officially spring and the sun is shining, the grass is green, the birds are chirping, we can still have some chilly days. Seriously, Mother Nature, … [Read more...]
