Ajo Blanco

We learned how to make this chilled soup when Alison Cayne of Haven’s Kitchen came to town and taught us a cooking class (see the full story here). This Andalusia variation of gazpacho makes for a perfect lunch on a hot summer day. Discover more of Alison’s fun recipes in her new book The Haven’s Kitchen Cooking School. photographed by buff […]

Green Kitchen Travels’ Cold Avocado Soup

Michelle Adams of The Maryn served this cold vegan soup as an appetizer during her healthy January lunch. “You can prepare this a day ahead and keep in a closed container in the fridge,” she says. “If you’re not vegan you can also try replacing the coconut milk with yogurt.” She adapted this recipe from one […]

How to Make Restaurant Quality Ramen at Home

I know I’m not alone when I say that for the first two decades of my life, “ramen” equalled dehydrated noodles in plastic wrap, paired with sodium-packed powdered flavoring. And while that store-bought version of the classic Japanese dish certainly wasn’t glamorous, something about the comfort of noodles in warm broth still made it undeniably enjoyable. Then came the real […]

Thanksgiving Leftovers Soup

Click here for more healthy Thanksgiving recipes! photography by Molly Winters “I always prepare way too much for my Thanksgiving spread, but it’s totally intentional. I find joy in utilizing my leftovers in repurposed recipes, so I make more food than I know our guests can eat. I often make casseroles, breakfast hashes or sandwiches […]

Roasted Cauliflower & White Bean Soup with Rosemary

It’s officially soup season! Okay, admittedly it’s been soup season at our house since the minute the temperatures dipped below 75 degrees in Austin, but I’m still really excited about it. How do I love this soup? Let me count the ways. First, it’s loaded with white beans and hearty vegetables that make it quite possibly the most […]

Sweet Potato Poblano Soup

I’ve been a huge fan of Dr. Weil’s and his sage advice on wellness and nutrition for years, so I was thrilled when the restaurant he co-founded, True Food Kitchen, opened its doors in Austin a couple months ago. The menu is built around his anti-inflammatory approach to food, so I knew it would be […]

Chicken and Winter Vegetable Soup

Around this time of year, I start craving soup a few times a week — there’s nothing that warms the body and soul quite like it. And since we’re eating extra clean this month, I asked food blogger and wellness coach Lisa Bryan to stop by with her favorite healthy soup recipe this winter — and boy did she […]

Slow-Cooker Chicken & White Bean Chili

We finally (!!!) just had our first semi-chilly day in Austin, and you should have seen our team… Decked out in scarves, boots, and turtlenecks, you would have thought we were experiencing an arctic blast, when it was actually just under 60 degrees. It’s amazing how the changing temps cause such a shift in what I’m […]

Tuesday Tastings :: Coconut Carrot Soup

I’ve finally faced the facts that I, for one, cannot live on liquids alone (sayonara, juice cleanse!)… but I do think there’s something to be said about giving our bodies a digestive break and tapping into the healing properties of a liquid meal once in a while. Of course, when temps are as chilly as […]
