Soup for dreary weather

With March just a couple of days away we still have a month of cold dreary weather. Soup is the perfect cure for the deep down in your bones cold and it's not as hard to whip up a batch as you would think. Try steaming some vegetables. It can be any kind like broccoli, cauliflower, peas, beets, anything. Cook until tender then put in a blender. Add some liquid. Try bouillon, cream, milk even soy milk. Start with small amounts until you achieve the desired thickness. Add salt and pepper. Serve. Try different seasonings, herbs or infused oils for interesting flavor combinations. I like to drizzle a little truffle oil or sesame oil into the puree. Give it a try and let me know how it turned out.
