I love any variety of corn chowder (non dairy of course) but this is definitely my new favourite! I’ve always seen corn chowder as a bit of a summer soup to be eaten on a light evening with a nice piece of crusty bread and maybe a large glass of crisp wine! This is probably … Continue reading

Apple and Parsnip Soup
This is a delicious and unusual soup that I first posted back in January 2012 when I was just starting out in the blogging world. I’d never made a soup with apple in it before but I tried it and I was so chuffed I remember it lighting a creative spark in me, I couldn’t … Continue reading
Pumpkin and Lentil Soup with Cheesy Croutons and Pumpkin Seeds
It’s well documented that my soup preference is almost always “chunky” however, I will admit, when it comes to pumpkin soup it just has to be silky smooth! Pumpkin gives such a lovely texture to a blended soup without the need to add cream, making it perfect for a low fat recipe and easy to … Continue reading
Minestrone Verde Soup
As some of you may know (especially if you follow me on facebook!) I’ve been super busy over the last few weeks moving house! The weekend we set aside to move got taken over by a horrible case of the flu which resulted in us cancelling all our plans including our wedding anniversary and taking … Continue reading

You can view guidance on mushroom foraging and a list of different types of mushrooms … Continue reading
Shiitake Mushroom and Nori ‘Noodle’ Soup
I had quite a few ingredients left over from my sushi making session including half a pack of Nori Seaweed, dried shiitake mushrooms, some wasabi paste, black sesame seeds and pickled ginger. Pretty much all of these things will keep until I fancy making sushi again but I wanted to experiment with other ways to … Continue reading
Vegetarian Sausage, Rice and Lentil soup
We’re back from Brighton now and although we had a really great time, it is nice to be home 🙂 I’m not back to work until Thursday as we are off to London today for an extra holiday (spoiling ourselves!) so I find myself in a weird stage of not quite being ready for the … Continue reading
Carrot, Red lentil and Ginger Soup
I’ll be honest, I’m not a fan of blended soup and I can’t stand carrot and coriander soup…so why have I made a blended carrot soup? Because I have come up with a recipe I like and I thought I would share it for others out there who either already love blended carrot soup, or … Continue reading
Quinoa, Mushroom and Tarragon Soup
This soup is really healthy and so delicious. I was feeling a little hung over on sunday after a brilliant night out with family in Nottingham and when I got home I just needed something nutritious that would cuddle me from the inside and halt the cold I could feel coming on. This soup did the … Continue reading
