In America, from California to Chicago, the temperatures have dropped and while I'm most definitely cold weather averse, the upside of this climate condition is being warmed from the inside out with delicious soul-warming soups. There's something about drinking soup that feels like mama's hug, so I'm pretty excited to fully indulge in a soup odyssey throughout this winter season. This simple recipe that I free-styled is an original. I put it together and just hoped it would be yummy. Well, mission accomplished. If you're reading this note in real-time and participating in our 2016 Winter Solstice Observance community on Facebook, this is a part of our soup and salad cleanse/detox menu. It's vegan. It's creamy. It's body and soul medicinal. It's soooooo flavorful. Make it and let me know how it turns out for you.
