Soups and Chowders
I have a tasty dish for your Meatless Monday, Galley Peeps. It took next to no time in the pressure cooker. Or for those of you lucky enough to own an Instant Pot, you will barely have time to set the table. This recipe is great on days when you don't have a lot of […]
How can you resist all the fresh produce these days? I certainly couldn’t on a recent trip to our local farmers’ market. A big bunch of carrots, new potatoes, fresh green and yellow beans, some shelled peas made the base of one of my favourite East Coast dishes. Hodge Podge is a sort of […]
Today’s recipe qualifies as an easy meatless meal. Lots of garlic, broth and ginger for the base. Eggs and bok choy filled in the rest to give us a well-rounded nutritious supper. I used vegetable broth but chicken or beef broth would add extra dimension. I’ve also used a spoonful or two of miso […]
We’ve both been a little ‘under the weather’ lately and were craving something warm, comforting and healing for supper tonight. Tortellini Soup (my favourite recipe here) always does it for me but I didn’t have any sausage on hand. Lots of carrots, spinach and celery but sadly, no tomatoes either. Two juicy lemons were substituted […]
Ah, the wonderful holiday season when we share all that the season has to offer….including the dreaded virus. We returned from our wonderful family travels with hearts full and noses dripping. Luckily we had provisioned well and menues were planned with easy healthy meals for holiday down time. I had made an extra batch of […]
“Soup is a lot like a family. Each ingredient enhances the others; each batch has its own characteristics; and it needs time to simmer to reach full flavour” ~Marge Kennedy …and who doesn’t love soup? ….and we are in need of some simple healthy holiday overindulgence relief. This next delicious soul and heart-warming soup is straight […]
You might be thinking ‘oh yeah another meatloaf recipe’. You’re right in that practically everyone has a fave meatloaf recipe. But this post (as with all of my others) is more about versatility for folks like us who spend a whole lot of time in tiny spaces and especially for me as chief Galley Kat, […]
Too hot to cook? This chilled summery soup is filled with loads of farmers’ market freshness and bursting with so much flavour. I can hardly contain myself. And probably the best part – no cooking required. All I had to do was dump all the ingredients into a large bowl and blend until smooth. That’s […]
I had some leftover grains and grilled chicken from a recent dinner and had a real craving for some warming rich soup. Imagine! It’s mid-May and there have been ‘risk of frost’ warnings and evenings onboard our little water home have been very chilly. Very pleased with the results of this belly-warming soup though… CREAMY […]
I’m really lovin’ this recipe for so many reasons. No preservatives. No MSG hidden in the ingredient list. You can control the amount of sodium. The best part is that you can add as many mushrooms as you wish, unlike some condensed creamed soups where you have to search for the bits . And it […]
