When you have a broken wrist, cooking becomes very difficult. Even though the cast is now off, I can’t lift heavy pans, unscrew jars, chop with any proficiency.

I’ve been making soups, using my Vitamix blender. For soup, it doesn’t matter that your vegetables is unevenly cut. Plus this winter has felt colder than usual, so it is soup season anyway.

Here are a few recipes I’ve developed:

Carrot and preserved lemon soup

Cauliflower Cheese Soup

Butternut Squash Soup
