Monday Mix – Soup’s on!

by Kamini on Oct 1, 12

OK, it’s like that game you play. Someone tells you a word and you tell them the first thing that comes to mind. So if someone says the word “Fall” to me, I don’t say “leaves” or “cold” or “snuggling by the fire” or “warm woolen sweaters”.

Nope, I say “soup”!

Because none of the other wonderful things associated with Fall will be wonderful without a bowl of hot, steaming, chock-full-of-vegetables soup! Soups are so versatile. Make them thick and hearty enough and they become a meal, make them light and flavorful and they are a great accompaniment. So with that in mind, here are some terrific soup recipes I have pulled out from my recipe folder to share with you! Click on each image to be taken to the recipe!

Roasted tomato-basil soup

Provencal vegetable soup with pistou

Ribollita

Hearty Meaty Fall Soup

Potato leek soup with bacon

Curried Pumpkin Soup with Spicy Pumpkin Seeds

Vegetable soup with pesto

French onion soup

Miso soup with tofu, bean sprouts and herbs

And what completes a soup? The perfect soup bowl. A miso soup in a Zen inspired soup bowl is so much better than in a coffee mug? And a hearty minestrone in a chunky ceramic Italian bowl takes on a whole new avatar!

Here are some lovely finds and be sure to check out the DIY tutorial on “make your own bread bowl” for soup! How fun is that?
