Autumn is upon us, which means soup is back on the menu! Ordinarily, we tend to eat soup all year round, but this summer’s spate of heat waves made them less appealing that’s for sure! Continue reading “Comforting lentil and tomato soup”

Warming carrot and lentil soup
The sudden change in temperature has come as a bit of a shock. Only a few weeks ago, I was out and about in London one evening in only a light jacket commenting on how warm it was for November. That feels a long way away from this morning when I had to spend some time defrosting the car to get to an appointment! Continue reading “Warming carrot and lentil soup”
Festive cauliflower and chestnut soup
Autumn and early winter are the season for chestnuts, which is why they’re particularly popular in festive dishes. With a very subtle flavour themselves, chestnuts make a great accompaniment to many side dishes and veggie mains. Always playing a supporting role, rarely the star.

Creamy broccoli and courgette soup
Broccoli is one of the best veggies in my opinon. Tasty, adaptable and full of awesome nutrients that our bodies just love. Steamed, roasted, raw or added to soups and stews, this member of the nutrient-dense cruciferous family is always a super star. Continue reading “Creamy broccoli and courgette soup”
Leek and celeriac soup
If you fancy something a little different, this yummy soup could be the thing. It’s packed full of gut-loving fibre and has a subtle savoury flavour. You could even pimp it up with some chopped chestnuts for a seasonal twist. Continue reading “Leek and celeriac soup”

Autumn has arrived, blown in on a cold wind that’s a bit of a shock after the warm weather of the last month. Chilly weather always makes me want comforting soup, something that will gives a big hug and warm me up right down to my toes. Continue reading “Easy vegan corn chowder”
Red pepper and white bean sunshine soup
If you’re reading this sitting in the hot summer sun, you may wonder why I’m posting a soup recipe in the middle of summer. But if you’re used to a British summer, then you’ll know that any day at this time of the year can be a soup day, as the weather is somewhat unpredictable.

Vegetable and butter bean stew
This winter seems to have been very long! The wet, grey days are beginning to take their toll, although any time the sun does manage to make an appearance is a wonderful moment to behold! March is the beginning of spring; the crocuses and daffodils have bravely popped their colourful heads up, but I definitely don’t feel it’s time to move from comforting soups and stews to lighter, more spring-like meals.
