To me, fish tacos are the best during summer. There is no real reason behind this, besides that I just think they taste better, and after a winter full of heavy soups and stews, there is nothing like a light and fresh tasting fish taco.

There are so many recipes that can help to use up the leftover chili.This is one of our favorites. So quick and easy to put together, and it tastes so good. Also, it's full of good-for-you ingredients. A perfect dinner on a cold winter day!

Great smell and supper to come home to on a cold winter day. The roast falls apart and with the vegetables makes a wonderful chunky gravy. Our favorite to serve over garlic mashed potatoes. Use whatever size roast and just add more vegetable to your liking.

This fat-free, cholesterol-free, low calorie soup provides major health benefits from the ginger and sweet potato, a superfood. Sweet potatoes provide a great source of beta-carotine, vitamin A, and healthy carbs. Its a good idea to replace cold smoothies with warm healthy soups, broths, etc in the winter.

A cozy and comfy miso stew is ideal for cool fall and cold winter. Sweet potato, tofu (or you can use cooked chicken or pork meat instead), and mushrooms are browned with garlic, ginger and scallions first to maximize the deliciousness, then simmered in a miso based soup. Warms you up in a second!

The Winter Wonderland continues here in Upstate NY, and for those who aren’t lucky enough to be somewhere tropical right now…well…we wish we were. Though I can’t get to somewhere warm right now, I rounded up the most sunshine-inspired ingredients in my kitchen and combined them with mega-vitamin packed kale for a tasty tropical treat.

To make the kebabs, you’ll need eight 10-inch wooden or bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 20 minutes. Metal skewers may overcook the lamb, so use only metal if you like your meat well done.

This delicious leek and potato soup is such a tasty and nutritious winter soup recipe. We love making soup in the slow cooker as it so easy to do and there’s nothing better than having your dinner ready and waiting for you when you get home from work. To give this recipe a delicious crunch, we’ve also topped it with hazelnuts (which make a fantastic healthy alternative to croutons, and they taste great too).

This ultimate spiced vegetable soup is a meal in itself – it’s super filling, delicious and full of goodness.

A very simple recipe for a classic, which helps you to get warm in the winter (ok, I mean when it is getting 4° Celsius in the night in Southern California). The number of servings is accurate when you have it as a meal - as a starter it should serve way more people. I did not list any spices, as I usually have self made chicken broth which is already pretty tasty and spicy, sweetness comes from the onions and the white wine balances it. For bread and cheese - don't think about any fancy, old dry bread is good and any cheese which melts. The onions are king when it comes to taste. Ovenproof crock bowls are very nice for final preparation and serving the soup.
