What is more comforting, warming, delicious, and nourishing than a hot bowl of homemade soup? There is nothing I would rather eat on a cold and blustery winter day.
Soup is nourishing, yet frugal. You can easily combine what you have on hand-a little of this, a little of that- to make a delicious bowl of soup. It’s a frugal queen’s dream and a nourishing mom’s delight.
For example, the photo I used above was a bowl of soup I whipped together at the last minute, made from some chicken stock in my fridge, some leftover chickpeas I had from a hummus project, some veggies thrown in and some cooked rice as well. Within minutes, my husband and Elena and I were sitting down to a delicious bowl of nourishing soup.
And then, other soups are more planned and thought out at this household. There are some delicious soup recipes and ideas that I am just aching to try out sometime. Soups flavors meld so well, that you can make a flavorful soup with little trouble at all, as long as you use quality ingredients.
I think soups and stews call for a carnival all of their own, and I invite you to get in on the soup sharing fun. (Thanks to everyone who participated in the last carnival-Nourishing New Years Resolutions. It was so inspiring!)
Here’s the plan. On January the 28th, bloggers will post on their own blog their nourishing, delicious, soup or stew recipes, with a link back to the carnival post (which will be posted the night before). After I have verified your post, and double check your link, I will link back to you from my post. From there the carnival will become a resource of delicious soups and stew recipes for the rest of the winter.
If you aren’t a blogger, please feel free to leave your recipe in the comment section. We would love to hear from you.
I will be once again not using Mr. Linky as it is more helpful to you if I provide a direct link instead of using Mr.Linky’s system (it helps your google ranking more).
Finally, make sure that you base your soup on nourishing ingredients!
Spread the word, if you like, and I hope to see you then!

Sounds fun and I know the recipe I’ll blog about.
awesome.
I LOVE soup! I made a wonderful soup this week that I will share if I can get a picture before it all gets gone:) Soups are so versatile that it’s hard to mess up!
This sounds wonderful, Kimi! I just posted soup using some raw cheese, but will do another soup post in a few days. Good excuse to experiment again. You’re so right — nourishing soups are economical and easy to make. I like making my own broth as well. Good way to use everything in your fridge!
🙂
I’ll get back with you after I create my soup. Great event!
Melissa
P.S. My recent soup post was inspired by a meeting of the Price Foundation!
Great Beth and Kimberly! I love forward to seeing what you have to share! 🙂
I’m looking forward to this so much. I can’t wait to see everyone’s recipes. Maybe I’ll try to come up with something myself. Love the new look of your blog!!
Is it possible to participate without a blog?
Lori,
Thanks! I like the new look too. 🙂 I would love to have you share a recipe. Happy cooking!
Cory,
Definitely! You can leave a comment in the comment section on the 28th. I will then mention it in my post, so that people are directed to it. 🙂
After I post on 28th,should I leave a comment here so that you can verify and link back. ?
I love soups too and they are a great way for those of us who can’t seem to remember to drink enough water, especially when the humidity is so low in the winter (sigh), to stay hydrated!
CurryLeaf,
On the 28th (or the night before), I will do a new post for the carnival. Then people can email me or leave a link in the comment section of that post with their link. I will then continue to update my page throughout the day, to include everyone’s posts. 🙂
Thanks for the clarification.See u on 28th 🙂
A perfect calling this time of year. I look forward to sharing and receiving lots of yummy recipes!
Kimi, this is a great idea!
I have a question – why do you say direct links work better for PageRank than Mr. Linky? Do you have a source for that?
Thanks – Ann Marie
Hi Kimi, I’m not sure I understand about how to post it… and I definitely don’t understand the MR Linky thing…but here’s my recipe & the direct link to it on my blog.
