A warm bowl of soup is one of the best meals to have especially during the cooler fall months that lead into the cold winter. Soups have this way of bringing comfort and satisfaction all within one bowl! The best part about preparing soups? The ability to turn leftovers and an abundance of vegetables into a hearty meal that your family will love. The problem I have is where do you start?
You can now find the book, Soup, in the Food and Drink Boutique over at DK Canada. The recipe book comes with 250 soup recipes!! I could not believe how many recipes you could find! They are organized by ingredients and fall into categories according to season. I almost did not know where to start.
Due to the abundance of tomatoes we had in our garden I started off by making a simple tomato soup which ended up turning out divine (if I do say so myself!). I loved the simpleness of the recipe and ingredients – you can’t get any more healthier than simple good for you ingredients!
The instructions were easy to follow and the majority of the ingredients you will easily find in your fridge and pantry. The simplicity of the recipes sold me. I love to be able to cook healthy meals quickly and efficiently. I was able to make a big pot of soup and then freeze it for later during the week making it the perfect weekend recipe book!
The best part of the book had to be the variety of recipes that it contained. It did not limit you at all with certain vegetables to help avoid the same food rut many of us fall into. Instead they tried out different combinations of vegetables and beans. Each vegetable was given several pages to itself but had a great variety of choices that you could make based on personal preference.
For a limited time you can take advantage of DK Canada’s 30% off discount at the Food & Drink Boutique!
