Creamy Spinach & Crab Soup

This soup may seem simple, but it has quite a depth of flavor. It is rich and creamy, with the wonderful combination of luscious green spinach and juicy crabmeat. It is easy to make, and it is a great compliment to a sandwich or even a hamburger.

Chilled Edamame Soup with Tomato Cream

Summer is here! To cool off from the heat, I wanted something chilled but that still had a depth of flavor. So I created a Vichyssoise (pureed potato soup) made from edamame. You will love its silky smooth texture and edamame richness. Top it off with tomato cream and it is even better and prettier. Great for a summer party!

Roasted Red Bell Pepper and Tomato Cream Soup

Tomato soup is wonderfully warm, creamy and comforting. I have a new gourmet version that is all that with a professional taste: roasted bell peppers and a hint of onion. But just like the original, it is easy to make and goes great with your favorite sandwich.

Brown Rice Chili

Is there any food more comforting than a warm, steaming bowl of chili? Vegans unfortunately have had their chili bowls only half full, so to speak, because of the decision not to include meat. This chili recipe fills the bowl by substituting brown rice for ground beef. It is a healthy, hardy (and comforting) replacement.
