Gentle Vegetable Broth

January 29, 2023 by Erica Leave a Comment

Gentle Vegetable Broth

This recipe came about one evening when I needed a very simple vegetable broth to use as a light soup for matzo balls. I had leeks, carrots, and dill in the refrigerator so that’s what I used. And since I needed it fast, I used my Instant Pot to pressure cook the ingredients in water. …

Simple White Bean Vegetable Soup

January 22, 2023 by Erica Leave a Comment

White Bean Vegetable Soup

I start a lot of my vegetable soups with a ritualistic soaking of beans. The beans I favor these days are cannellini because they make soups creamier and they’re a nutritional powerhouse. I sometimes soak more than I need and freeze a portion of them to add to soups at a later time. And I’ll …

Creamy Broccoli Basil Soup {dairy free}

April 30, 2022 by Erica 4 Comments

Creamy Broccoli Basil Soup

I’m always looking for quick and easy ways to add more green to my life, including broccoli. Broccoli is great way to get some fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K, iron, and potassium in your body, and has more protein than most vegetables. I often steam broccoli and drizzle some lemon juice over it, or sprinkle …

Cream of Broccoli Carrot Soup

October 21, 2020 by Erica Leave a Comment
