Carrot and Coriander Soup

Carrots have several health benefits. Carrots being good for the eyes is something I have been hearing since my childhood. They are a rich source of beta carotene which is converted into Vitamin A in the body and is a very important nutrient for eye health. In addition to this, carrots are also known to have several other health benefits like promoting healthier skin, preventing infections and slowing down aging.

This soup is very simple to make and tasty too. My hubby and daughter both liked it a lot.

Mixed Veggies in Vinaigrette Dressing

Vinaigrette Dressing in its simplest form consists of a combination of Vinegar and Oil. In this recipe, we add to it fresh cream, mustard powder, pepper and salt to get a great dressing which is then combined with the mixed vegetables. We like this salad a lot and usually it figures in our menu once every week.

Almond Soup

Almonds as we all know are excellent for the brain. Besides they also have several other health benefits – they help in development of strong bones and teeth, lower the rise in blood sugar after meals and are also known to aid in weight loss if taken in the right quantity. I also like this recipe for another reason – you can use any white vegetable to make the vegetable paste. I have earlier tried it with ridge gourd – a vegetable which is otherwise not liked much at my home. So you can almost select any white vegetable which you want to include in your loved ones diet but is not appreciated by them in the direct form. 🙂 If you wish you can also include 1-2 drops of almond essence to get a more prominent almond flavor, but I prefer to skip that.
