For those of you who know me well, this would be my detoxifying, low calorie, yet still tasty way to start out the new year. As usual, I did enjoy eating all varieties of food displayed on a cheese board, and drinking my fair share of wine. It was the holidays, after all. For those… Continue reading

If there ever was a week for a warm, soothing, cleansing sort of soup this would be it. After all that Thanksgiving feasting my tummy needed soup. You can make it spicy. Or not. I did, you know I can’t resist. It can be low calorie. Or not. I did use Lite Coconut Milk. It… Continue reading

How did it become Friday without my weekly posting of Soup? Veggie  girl (or “bunny ” as we call her) has been asking for a bean soup for a few weeks now, she loves beans.

As promised, here is my weekly soup recipe. A hearty Tortilla Soup that is very easy to adapt to all tastes and requirements (a daily hurdle for me).

My early Christmas gift to you all this week is a super fast and tasty Lentil Soup. I know everyone is crazy busy this time of year, and sometimes questions like “what’s for dinner?” don’t hit the radar until after 6pm, right? All you need is 1 bag of everyday grocery lentils, you probably have… Continue reading

I love summer, miss it already, however I am looking forward to SOUP! Lots of soups, veggie, creamy, spicy (always need spicy) chunky and of course pureed, veggie girls favorite. In cooler weather we have soup at least once a week. It’s filling, it’s comforting, it’s low-cal (sometimes) and super easy. Here’s the first of… Continue reading

Vegetarian (or not) Mexican… Continue reading
