Turn the page and find my recipes for a slow cooked winter squash soup and winter vegetable goulash. I call the squash soup my “detox soup”, as it is loaded with vitamins such as beta-carotene.

As well, I tend to prepare it completely plant based (vegan) just to allow the purest form of nutrition to shine through with the use of organic turmeric, garlic, ginger and chilies - this soup will keep your immune system on guard against the nasty cold & flu season.

I love preparing a nice stew or goulash using many varieties of vegetables and good quality local meat.

Once the stew is prepared it can be eaten on its own or on top of a bed of beautiful pasta, rice or any of your favourite starches. I prefer my Goulash with a nice heaping spoon of plain Greek yogurt and organic cabbage Kim Chi. This just adds depth, flavour and enriches the nutritional aspect.
