Perfect for any occasion from a spring dinner party to a light lunch, this smooth carrot soup flavored with loads of fresh cilantro and coriander seed is tasty and healthy.
Slicing carrots with a vegetable peeler transforms them into pasta-like ribbons. Cook them with peas and a pat of butter for unexpectedly luscious results.
Iris Van Rynbach, 61, Glastonbury, Conn."With lots of vegetables, cheese and a poached egg, this salad walks the line between indulgent and nutritious."
