I was at an antique book fair a few years back and found a lovely old “Good Housekeeping Cookery Compendium” (1957 edition) which I just had to buy. It sits on my recipe book shelf with pride and has some classic recipes which I use all the time.
Ive recently been looking at the soups and found this great Chestnut Soup.The run up to Christmas means there are lots of chestnuts around and in the supermarkets so you could give this recipe a try!

Dinner tonight? By my son’s request, I am making mexican bean soup. It’s super easy.
Spinach, Lentil and Lemon Soup
Posted on Jan 12, 07:12 PM in Soups and Vegetarian. No comments.
Today I was discussing, with a group, which foods are “filling” versus “non-filling” and the food that came up the most in the “filling” list was lentil soup. Lentils are a great source of protein and soluble fibre and also, generally, have a low GI so are bound to make you feel fuller for longer. They are also an excellent source of B vitamins.
This soup is a great pick me up for lunchtime and should keep you going through your day.
Pumpkin and Smoked Haddock Soup

Leftover pumpkin? It’s a perfect time to turn those leftovers into a warm and tasty soup. Combining with smoked haddock adds that extra dimension to the dish.
Haddock is at its best around November and is a fairly firm fish that will sit well in soup.
Halloween White Witch's Potion
Posted on Oct 22, 03:59 PM in Seasonal and Soups. Comments [1].
Its coming up to Halloween and there is a cold snap in the air. In our street, each year, the children get together in a big group and “hit the streets” trick or treating. We usually try to have something hearty, warm and nutritious for them to eat before they start gathering all the sweets and treats they are given by generous neighbours. This “white witch’s” potion is jam packed with good ingredients and can be made in a large cauldron, ready to serve before any serious scaring is done. But dont forget the garlic…
