It’s officially soup season and I couldn’t be happier! While I could do without the snow and ice we see so often in the Canadian winter months, there is little better than cozying up to a hot bowl of soup when it’s coming down outside. I can’t believe I’ve had this blog for 15 years […]

Beef Barley Soup
Originally published on November 15, 2009 This recipe is so good and while I didn’t use an actual recipe for it, I can’t say that I came up with it all by myself. It’s beef barley soup for cryin out loud! I hardly invented it! But it’s not too hard to figure out and you […]
Butternut Squash Soup
Originally published on March 23, 2010 Another classic soup for a cold winter or fall day! This one combines deliciously sweet flavours with salty and deep flavours. All for one perfect bowl of wonderfulness! This soup freezes beautifully, so you can make a huge batch of it and freeze it for another cold day. For […]
Cream of Asparagus Soup
Originally published on November 17, 2011 When I was trying to get some ideas on how to make the very best Cream of Asparagus Soup by searching online, it didn’t take me long to find out that there are about a zillion ways to make this dish (just like anything else, right?) Unfortunately, there weren’t […]
Cream of Mushroom Soup
Originally published on September 5, 2014 Cream of mushroom soup can be more than just a great meal (and this one is truly great!), it can also be stored in your freezer along with your stock and used as an ingredient in any dish that calls for it. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve turned away […]
Roasted Zucchini and Corn Chowder
Originally published on September 27, 2014 Isn’t it a great feeling to open up your fridge, see things that need to be used up, and know immediately what you’re going to use them for? That’s what happened last weekend when my kids needed lunch and there they were – four ears of corn and a […]
Cream of Tomato Soup
Originally published on November 5, 2014 They’re calling for snow on Friday and when the days get cold like this, there’s nothing better than a hot bowl of tomato soup. Homemade tomato soup tastes nothing like the stuff that comes out of a can, and it’s super easy to make. When I made this cream of tomato soup, I […]
Cream of Roasted Carrot Soup
Originally published on March 6, 2015 When it falls on me to make the cream soup of the day at work, this is my favourite one to make. It started one day when there was little in the walk-in and I just didn’t really know what to do. Eyeing the 50-pound bag of carrots that we always have […]
French Onion Soup
Originally published on March 13, 2015 French onion soup is not like other soups. You can’t just throw a whole bunch of odds and ends into a pot, let them simmer for an hour or so, and then be left with a wonderful piping hot bowl of soup. Unfortunately, making this restaurant classic will take a bit more […]
Loaded Baked Potato Soup
Originally published on June 14, 2017 This is a soup I used to make at the restaurant all the time because it’s so very easy and takes no time at all to pull together. The secret is to use leftover mashed potatoes. After that, all you really have to do is fry up some bacon, grate some […]
