Spicy tomato soup recipe (serves 4)
From whole-living
2 cans of diced tomato in juice
1 T of Olive oil/safflower oil
2 carrots
3 cloves of garlic
one lemon's juice
1/4 milk (or what seems right to make it creamier)
1 cups of water or more
turmeric, basil, oregano, rosemary, a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili (all optional but add to it)
Instructions:
Take tomatoes and grill them with olive oil in the oven until lightly browned (intensifies flavour), meanwhile slice carrots thinly (if using a blender) then add carrot, garlic, lemon juice, tomato juice, milk and browned tomatoes and blend until smooth. Then place in a pot over the stove to heat, adding seasoning and stirring so it will not stick. Eat with buttered hot toast!

One of the most amazing cakes has struck me down, i haven't even tasted it yet - but just the sound of its name makes me feel warm inside: Cashew dream cake
It's like a cheesecake but healthier and can be flavoured in many different ways; raspberries, vanilla bean, cocoa, blueberry, strawberry, apricot, Turkish delight... I just wish i had a food processor as without it, i don't know if i can do it.
