Bloodshot Eyeball Soup
Hearty yet simple, this comforting soup will ground everyone before or after a day of candy. Thick potato Canadian Cheddar soup suspends the cranberries in the image of an eyeball. Who knew they could be so delicious? Make in advance and serve with a green salad for a spooktacular dinner or lunch.

Buttercup Squash Soup
This is a fall favourite of mine! I always take advantage of the fresh squash at harvest time each autumn. It's packed with rich flavour and very easy to make.
-
Crockpot Chicken Tortilla Soup
This is a recipe that has very little prep and so easy to make. We especially like the Hint of Lime Tortilla Chips!
-
Leek, Potato and Kale Soup
This deliciously creamy soup is a clever way to get your family to eat kale, a most nutritious green vegetable. Come home to steamy hot soup that just needs to be blended before serving.

Christmas Eve Seafood Chowder
Seafood was always a Christmas Eve Tradition in my parent's home growing up. Now that I have my own family my husband and I have adopted this as one of our family's traditions. Leftovers are great for lunch on a busy Christmas Day! The great news...this recipe is delicious anytime of the year! Enjoy!

Cara's Triple Potato Soup
This recipe makes a big batch, but you can half it if the volume is too much. We like to have leftovers!
-
Easy Tomato and Mozzarella Salad
You won't find an easier recipe than this one. I make this when my girlfriends and I get together for a playday. You can prepare this recipe ahead of time to save time, it also makes the salad taste extra yummy! If you are rushed for time, use grape tomatoes cut in half and baby boccaccini and toss with the other ingredients in a bowl. No arranging needed.
-
Tomato and Peach Gazpacho
Our family loves this recipe because it combines so many great tastes. We add peaches to the soup to add a bit of sweetness to satisfy the younger children at the table. This is a great recipe when you have so many tomatoes you don't know what to do with them but you can also make it in the winter for a change from hot soup. Brings you back to summer if you use tomatoes you put in jars or froze ahead.

Quick Minestrone Soup
This is *so* good, and very easy! I don't use the cheese, but I put it on the table for those who wish to have some.
