I’m always on the lookout for a seasonal, vegetarian soup recipe. This ginger turmeric spiced soup, which can be made hot or chilled, is perfect for a light summer lunch or dinner. It’s flavorful and also accommodates to those who are gluten-free and/or vegan. Image and recipe via Gourmande in the Kitchen.
