• Best Soups for Spring

  Okay, it's not officially spring yet, but it sure feels like it, especially in North Carolina. After coming down with an unexpected illness over the weekend, I have been craving soups....but it's just too hot to deal with the usual suspects, like tomato soup. Luckily, there are plenty of cooling soups to soothe my sore throat and help me avoid standing over a hot stove.
  

  
  I turned to my trusty magazine, Real Simple, for the best spring soups. Here are the vegetarian ones.
  
  Chilled Sweet Pea and Watercress Soup.  Refreshing and green, fits spring perfectly! I would use it for an Earth Day celebration.
  
  

  

  
  
  Carrot Soup. This one has ginger in it for an added healthy kick.
  
  

  
  

  
  
  Scallion and Potato Soup.  A lighter version of a winter classic.
  
  

  
  

  
  
  
  Enjoy! What soups do you make when spring rolls around?
