Souper September

Ginger Miso Broth

Our number one recipe to whip up when we’re feeling under the weather is Ginger Miso Broth - an incredible pick-me-up. This unbeatable combination of homemade bone broth (our elixir for good health), immune-boosting ginger and probiotic miso, will leave you feeling rehydrated, satisfied and energised. We whisk in an egg or two to add extra protein, give it a creamy consistency and make it more of a meal. Throw in baby spinach too for some quick greens. In the cold months this hug in a mug is the perfect way to start and even end your day - but really, we’d have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner! Get the recipe here.

Chilled Lettuce Soup

Yes, we know that September is meant to be the first month of autumn, but here in Britain we have four seasons in one day! Since we’ve had a very wet summer, we’re surely owed a few scorchers this month, right?! If that’s the case, then our deliciously perky Chilled Lettuce Soup is just the ticket. Both gem and romaine lettuce are packed full of vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients and fibre – there’s a reason greens are good for you! Add fresh garlic, basil, spring onions and lemon juice to make a delicious soup that can be enjoyed both cold and hot - just in case the weather lets us down after all. Get the recipe here.

Quick Quinoa Stew

Okay, so while it’s not technically a soup, we thought our Quick Quinoa Stew deserved a special mention here because – just like a soup – it’s warming, filling, easy to digest and based on homemade bone broth! Similar to a minestrone with its base of tomatoes, fresh garlic and oregano - we use quinoa (one of our favourite pseudocereals) instead of pasta to make it hearty, and smoked paprika for a boost of flavour. Super quick to make, high in protein and rich in flavour, our stew is a perfect example of comfort food. Make up a big batch as part of your Sunday Cook-Off and bring it into work in a thermos for a truly satisfying hot lunch. If serving to guests, throw on some fresh herbs like coriander to add a splash of colour and extra oomph. Get the recipe here.

Gazpacho

For those of you who aren’t ready to say goodbye to summer yet, we’ve included our favourite summer soup – a delicious, chilled Gazpacho. This is a really great way to get some raw veg into your diet, particularly for those who don’t like salads. Antioxidant-rich tomatoes lend a sweet, tangy flavour while garlic and chilli flakes give it kick. Avocado adds good fats, fills you up and provides a wonderfully creamy texture without the need for bread. If you’re unsure about eating a cold soup in September, try drinking it like a smoothie instead! Get the recipe here.

Miso Carrot Soup

A twist on a classic, our Miso Carrot Soup is creamy and sweet with subtle hints of Asian flavours - plus, kids love it! In this recipe we pair the natural sweetness of carrots with the salty umami flavour of unpasteurised Miso - probiotic and bursting with beneficial bacteria. Throw some fresh garlic and ginger in the mix to help maintain a strong immune system. Who knew that such a simple, healthy dish could taste so good?! Get the recipe here.

Mexican Squash Soup

Sweet, earthy and utterly delicious, the butternut is one of our favourite veggies, and luckily this is the time of year when they’re at their best! Roasted, baked or blended, this squash is great in any form – but one of the best ways to enjoy it has to be our Mexican Squash Soup. A blend of fragrant Mexican spices, (cinnamon, paprika, cumin and cayenne pepper) complement the butternut perfectly, and add a wonderfully intense flavour to this creamy soup. Get the recipe here.
