The weather has been absolutely gorgeous here in Sydney and summer is just around the corner. However, even though it was warm on Tuesday, I was in the mood for a hot soup. Does that ever happen to you? Perhaps it was because I was feeling a little bit run-down, but I just knew that … Read more

Mushroom Soup

Mushroom Soup

I first came across this vegan mushroom soup recipe last year and absolutely loved it. You see, other than minestrone soup, I normally really only like puréed soups. Well, to be honest, the first time I made this soup, I puréed it before serving it as well. But this week, I made it as-is and … Read more

Right now, I’m staying with my parents and it’s actually more of a “semi-vacation” at the moment since I’m working half-days and running around doing a bunch of different errands the rest of the time. My time … Read more

Borscht (Beetroot Soup) - Vegan and Gluten-Free

This week, I had a lot of fresh beetroot on hand so I decided to make Vegan Borscht (beetroot soup) for the first time.

Check out this awesome kidney bean soup. Until I made this the other day, I had never had a kidney-bean based soup before – just the usual black or white bean variety.

Roasted Butternut Squash, Lime & Coconut Soup

Roasted Butternut Squash, Lime & Coconut Soup (Vegan, Gluten-Free)

I cut this soup recipe out of the Ottawa Citizen newspaper many years ago – and it’s been one of my favorites ever since. The coconut milk makes it so rich and creamy and the cilantro (fresh coriander) and lime give it such a fresh, summer-taste, any time of the year. I veganized the original … Read more

Roasted Fresh Tomato Soup

Roasted Fresh Tomato Soup - The smell of the fresh tomatoes roasting is intoxicating! Vegan & Gluten-Free.

The best part of this roasted fresh tomato soup (other than the taste), is the aroma that will fill your home when making it! I got a little carried away at the farmer’s market last week and found myself with too many tomatoes. I didn’t really feel like making the obvious thing (pasta sauce) so … Read more

Mango Gazpacho

Mango Gazpacho - Raw, Vegan, Gluten-Free

Vegan MoFo #14 – Keeping with my tropical theme this week, here’s a recipe for mango gazpacho, or should I say MMMango gazpacho! It’s slightly adapted from AllRecipes.com. I leave-out the jalapeno pepper and reduce the onion and garlic because I find them to be to strong in the original recipe (and I love garlic and onion)! … Read more

Minestrone Soup with Pesto

Minestrone Soup with Pesto

My amazing mom has been making this vegan minestrone soup for years and it’s one of my all-time favorites. I love the chunkiness of the vegetables and it’s really more of a stew than a soup. I’ve seen people who “hate vegetables” (!?!), ask for seconds of this soup. Seriously, it’s that good! The soup … Read more
