Sometimes you just need a nice, warm bowl of soup with lots of rich broth. I made just such soup when the craving hit me. I really focused on the broth in this one and much less on the other ingredients. I wanted it to be a classic soup, like the go-to can of veggie…
Easy Split Pea Soup
I’d like to start off by saying that I realize it is blazing hot outside. I also realize soup is generally served in winter (at least it is in my household). However, the heart wants what the heart wants….and I wanted some split pea soup. We have a local juicery downtown near my place of…
West African Peanut Soup + The Make Ahead Vegan Cookbook Review
There are times when I need a little inspiration in my life, or actually, my kitchen. Most days, I have so many pending recipe ideas I can’t crank them out fast enough. Other times, however, I can’t think of a darn thing to make. It is times like these that I turn to others for…

Traditional Miso Soup
Simple, comforting, and a bit exotic: that is the picture Miso soup paints in my mind. The exotic part is a bit of a stretch as I had it growing up in just about every Chinese or Japanese Hibachi restaurant I ever went to. Actually, saying I had it “growing up” is a bit silly because…
