Curry Lentil Soup with Coconut Milk

This curry lentil soup recipe with coconut milk and cashews is rich and creamy, plus it’s healthy and vegan. It’s so easy to make – and delicious!Healthy Vegan Curry Lentil Soup Recipe with Coconut Milk

This time five years ago, Pat and I were in Thailand, where coconut milk is added to everything. Since that trip, coconut milk has been a more consistent addition to our cooking, including in this curried soup. Even though the spices aren’t necessarily Thai, it still makes me think of all the amazing food we ate on the trip. It has a richness that makes it perfect for winter and it’s filling enough to make it for a main dish. It’s also gluten-free and vegan.

Chilled Green Gazpacho Soup

Gluten Free

Healthy Chilled Green Gazpacho Soup Recipe - Perfect for Summer!

Gazpacho is the perfect summer soup. It requires no slaving away over the stove and it’s served chilled, which makes it super refreshing. Because of all of the Vinho Verde wines I’ve been enjoying lately, I was also inspired by Portuguese Soupa Verde Frio (Cold Green Soup) to put a green spin on gazpacho with tomatillos and leafy greens instead of tomatoes.

This gazpacho has another twist – it has bread it in! I recently enjoyed a a similar one at a local restaurant. I thought the bread added a really nice richness and made the super really special. It’s also super convenient because it’s marinated overnight meaning minimal prep at mealtime. I couldn’t resist trying it in this recipe, and the result was wonderful…. Read More »
