Caraway-Cauliflower Soup

 


This delicious Caraway-Cauliflower Soup is based on having had a bowl of it in a local restaurant one day for lunch. I had not tasted caraway for many years and had forgotten that I liked it.


INGREDIENTS:

* 1 onion, chopped
*Golden Bouillion, 2+ cubes
*4 carrots, chopped
*4 potatoes, cubed
*1/2 cauliflower, cut into small florets
*1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
*filtered water to cover vegetables when cooking
*1 cup plant milk (unsweetened)
*salt and pepper to taste
*vegan cheese shreds to garnish
*lemon squeeze

METHOD:

1. Saute the onion in the bouillion.
2. Add the carrots, potato, cauliflower, seeds, and cover with water. Simmer until the veggies are softened
3. Add milk and salt. 
4. Add in all the vegetables and blend until smooth. Alternately, leave some of the vegetables in the pot so that the soup is chunky. Stir the soup in the pot to warm through.
5. Dish soup up and garnish with vegan cheese shreds, fresh cracked pepper,and perhaps chopped onion greens.
6. Provide a wedge of lemon with the bowl of soup.
7. Enjoy!

Pan-Fry Carrots (Roast Carrot Sticks)

Pan-roasted carrots (with some potato fries mixed in) Our younger son--at one time in the life he styled as "Nomad Farmer"-- lived and grew organic vegetables, fruit and berries on an off-grid community farm in the interior of BC.  We stopped in to see him the one time and came away with a load of over-wintered carrots, still as carrot-y flavoured and plump as on the day they were dug from the ground, thanks to the hill-side root crop storage cellar.   Our granddaughters opted for fish and chips today for lunch, and some of the 'chips' were carrot chips.  They are also a great base for a roast carrot soup.  When you roast veggies, you get extra delicious flavour.  You will also find two wonderful recipes for Holiday carrot side dishes-- Maple-glazed roasted carrots with a recipe for a lemony vegan sauce (made with cashews) and Lemon-Herb roasted carrots made with a Pecan Relish recipe, PAN-FRY CARROTS (Roast Carrot Sticks) <more properly ...

Yummy 3-Ingredient Organic Breakfast Cookies

Organic Breakfast Cookies (rainbow effect thanks to a crystal on my kitchen window sill) You may already have come across these delicious breakfast cookies but thought: "hey, where's the good stuff? The sugar? The eggs? The fat?"  Well, the good stuff is all in the ingredients-- this is a whole food recipe which means we aren't using derivatives, we're using the real food, and it doesn't need to be gussied up with animal products to have incredible mouth appeal (that is what fatty, sugary, salty, custard-y textures and tastes contribute).  So, I say, try 'em and if you're disappointed, well, add some of the other ingredients...
