Green Vegetable and Walnut Miso Soup with Soba Noodles
We love this umami bomb of a recipe from Alexandra at In My Bowl
A healthful dose of winter staving umami, this Green Vegetable and Walnut Miso Soup has quickly been a household staple. Made with a very simple, mineral rich, and immune boosting wakame and kombu seaweed broth, dutifully spiked with undertones of ginger and a deeply savory walnut and white miso paste, we take our bowls to the next level with mountainous piles of buckwheat soba noodles, broccoli and snap peas, and a heaping handful of Earthbound Farm’s tender baby kale leaves.
Indian-spiced Cauliflower Soup
nowy white and crunchy, organic cauliflower is a beautiful, healthy vegetable that’s just bursting with delicious possibilities. Here we’ve simmered it in a vegetable broth seasoned with aromatic subcontinent spices to create a delightfully warming and versatile soup that’s perfect for a winter meal.
Change it up by puréeing it smooth for a dinner party or stirring in some baby spinach for a hearty family supper, and watch it nestle nicely into your seasonal recipe rotation. You’ll never take cauliflower for granted again.
Carmelized Onion and Wilted Greens & Goat Cheese Toast
Creamy Kale Artichoke Dip
This recipe comes to us from our partner Amelia Winslow, who cooks and blogs at Eating Made Easy. It’s a brilliant take on a legendary game-day snack, featuring our flavorful organic Kale.
“I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone who doesn’t love spinach artichoke dip,” Amelia says. “Trouble is, it’s not exactly a ‘light’ dish. But this spinach artichoke dip — actually, Kale Artichoke Dip — is not only delicious but also nutritious. Really. And it’s every bit as good (better, if you prefer less grease and more flavor) as the traditional versions of this crowd pleaser.”
What makes this dip awesome? First, the greens: our Kale adds wonderful flavor with a nice texture, and the leaves hold up perfectly, even cooked amid the dip’s richer ingredients. Blending soft white beans into a smooth purée achieves the creaminess you want in this recipe, but in a much healthier way — and the beans add heart-healthy fiber. And cheese…well, cheese makes everything better!
“The first time my husband tasted this recipe, he asked me — in all seriousness — if we could have this as an appetizer before dinner every night,” Amelia says. “My 3-1/2-year-old daughter was a bit more skeptical, since she claims not to like ‘finich’ (her word for spinach). When I told her the greens in the dip were actually kale rather than spinach, she still hesitated…then I told her the whole thing was mostly melted cheese, and she was all in. She ended up loving the dish, and she gobbled up those deep green leaves as eagerly as we did.”
Butternut and Apple Bisque
Butternut squash is simply terrific in soups. In this recipe, apples and apple cider partner with buttery squash to create a smooth, creamy bisque. The base of the soup can be made a day ahead of serving or frozen. To keep it simple, a sprinkling of fresh tarragon finishes the bisque nicely. If you have more time, chopped hazelnuts, tiny toasted croutons, or fried sage leaves would work well as garnishes.
Tomato Soup with Cheesy Cauliflower Float
A lot of tomato soups require peeling and seeding tomatoes. This recipe skips those steps because, heck, that’s what the blender is for. Tip: Pressed for time? Skip making the soup and serve Pacific Foods Organic Tomato Soup or Tomato and Red Pepper Soup with the cauliflower floats instead.
Backed Broccoli Cauliflower Veggie Tots and Creamy Chive Dip
Get your kids in the kitchen with these broccoli cauliflower tots from Sophia DeSantis of Veggies Don’t Bite. They are super simple, easy to put together and have few ingredients!
Sweet & Spicy Roasted Cauliflower with Tahini Beet Dressing
This is cauliflower with a definite kick! We all love roasted cauliflower (don’t we?), but this recipe elevates that roast with sweet and spicy fireworks and laces it with a gorgeous pink drizzle to cool the mouth and dress up the dish. If you’re not up for the heat, dial back the sriracha.
Creamed Spinach
Cauliflower Gratin
Celery Spiked Guacamole
Never thought about adding celery to your guac? Give it a spin with this simple and delicious recipe. The celery adds fresh flavor and crunch to the guacamole without altering too much of those favorite treats you’ve come to love.
