This was a good alternative to the usual diary recipes. I was glad I found it and it turned out great for a cold night. I added a bit of nutmeg, because I love the sweetness it adds. -
This was excellent. At the last minute I discovered my yam was rotten so I had to sub a russet potato. I'm actually glad I did because I think it might have been too sweet the other way. Coriander (which I rarely use) is what makes this a five-star recipe. I sped things up by using a hand blender and subbing bagel crisps for the croutons. Thanks for this wonderful recipe!

Most of my recipes are dairy free since I discovered many years ago that I am lactose intolerant. While I have had to give up some much-loved recipes, we have discovered that most can be modified to accommodate the changes to our diet. Most of my recipes say dairy free but there are a few from my childhood that may have dairy! I also have an intolerance to MSG so we spend a lot of time reading labels. Usually, it is just easier to cook from scratch, so we don't use many pre-made foods from the grocery store.</p> I like recipes I can make with minimal ingredients, real food I have in my kitchen, that are also easy to make!
