Did you know that January is National Soup month. From a frosty and somewhat chilly Isle of Skye it is a welcome food at lunchtime. It’s also an easy meal when you have a busy day.

There are many different kinds of soup to choose. From clear, creamy, low-fat, with a dash of spice, or naturally sweet. Served hot and sometimes cold. Which is great isn’t it because nothing drives away those chilly winter blues like a hot bowl of your favourite soup.

We have two favourites, Butternut Squash and Broccoli and Stilton served with a couple of slices of Ian’s home made bread. Why not try it for yourself you can find them here ~ Recipe.

As there are only usually two of us having soup we can’t help ourselves from saying “Two Soups” courtesy of Julie Walters in a sketch written by Victoria Wood, when putting it on the table. (see the clip here)

National Soup Month may be January be we enjoy a warming bowl throughout the year. We hope you enjoy trying them and if you have any recipes you think we should try, let us know.

Catriona.
