I am a self proclaimed Soup Connoisseur!

This blog comes from my passion for soups!
and a desire to prove to my husband that soups are not just appetizers!

I love soup! there are so many kinds and the majority of them are healthy or can be made healthy, you can pack them full of veggies they really can be a densely nutrition and tasty meal.

Oh and soup creates an awesome portable healthy quick lunch!
*** Please note that I have also added a "No so Soupy" section for all my other wonderful creations to share =)
