Springtime weather can be so unpredictable – some days it’s freezing cold and raining and other days it’s hot and sunny. We just had many days of cold rainy weather and while the sun is finally out, I still feel like I’m defrosting and drying off. You probably already know how much love I have […]
I have made a few different versions of sweet potato soup over the years, but a coconut curried version is by far my favorite. It has the right amount of creaminess to compliment the spice and it’s warming yet not too spicy all in one bowl. While I tend to eat this in the colder […]
It’s no surprise that I love soup. I eat it every week, sometimes everyday in a week. But soup doesn’t have to be textureless or tasteless. In fact, it can be quite robust and flavorful. But the bigger the flavors, the longer it takes to cook, right? Nope! Not if you have an Instant Pot! […]
Spring break has come to an end, and I wanted to ease into the week slowly with a simple soup. Lots of leftovers are key for me getting back into the swing of things. They make for easy lunches that I don’t have to think about. Chop, dump, set and forget. That’s the beauty of […]
Matzo has a very distinct smell. For me, I never realized how nostalgic it was until I started making it on my own. I can vividly remember eating matzo ball soup at every holiday with my family in my parents dining room. Some years it was in my cousin Caroline and Sumner’s house or in […]

Soup is great because you can take any vegetable, canned food, meat, fresh herbs from your garden, etc… that you have on hand, throw it together and you have a deliciously warm meal. A vegetable beef soup is so easy too because it’s all made in one pot and makes the house smell amazing while […]
When I was first trying to figure out what soup I wanted to make this week, I knew it had to have a lot of veggies in it since this is Spring week. Flowers and veggies love to start popping up this time of year and I needed to have them in my soup! So […]
Here’s the last recipe of the week featuring Trader Joe’s only ingredients! It’s been a fun and super easy cooking week, something I’ve really looked forward to given the clocks changed and we’ve all been so tired. And since I love making soup on Friday’s, we’re ending the week with a super creamy, almost decadent […]
Until a few days ago, I never knew what an aquadito was let alone how to make it. I didn’t know what went into it or where it was from. But that’s the beauty of traveling through food. You learn. You expand your mind, your palate and your weekly food routine. So now that I’ve […]
