I\u2019m excited to share all my favorite soup recipes that I make for family and friends, they deserve a special place on everyone\u2019s Ramadan table.<\/p>\n

Lebanese Brown lentil Soup:\u00a0\u00a0<\/a>The recipe is my late my grandma\u2019s! Granny or \u201cTeta Roro\u201d, as we used to call her, was known in her community as a highly skilled cook, there is something about her recipes that has stood the test of time, and this soup was one of her prized delicacies that showed up nearly at every extended family gathering.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Lebanese Red Lentil Soup with Vegetables!\u00a0<\/a>An authentic Lebanese and Middle Eastern soup that\u00a0is associated with\u00a0Ramadan<\/strong> but can be enjoyed year-round,\u00a0particularly on a rainy day.\u00a0The red lentil soup is among the favorite soups all over Lebanon and Middle East. It may vary from one country to another and even from one home to another.\u00a0 Its creamy smoothness makes it endlessly appealing, nourishing and comforting, especially after a long fasting day.<\/p>\n

Turkish Red Lentil Soup \/ Mercimek \u00c7orbas\u0131:<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0is a one that calms down the hunger, eliminates the tension of the day, and excites the appetite after a long day of fasting, yes, so satisfying, and knowing how nourishing and healthful it is brings another layer of contentment. The soup has been given the thumbs up by friends and guests who had it at my house \u2014 in addition to all its other virtues, it\u2019s vegan and gluten-free!\u00a0It is is a copycat of a soup I had during my last visit to Istanbul, this was a few weeks ago! Ramzi took me to the Atolye restaurant at the Ritz Carlton hotel in Istanbul.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Corn Chicken Soup from Scratch:<\/a>while not a specific dish to Ramadan (like\u00a0Lebanese Brown Lentil Soup<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0Turlish Red Lentil Soup\/<\/strong>\u00a0Mercimek \u00c7orbas\u0131<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Lebanese Red Lentil Soup<\/strong><\/a>), it is still a family favorite. Obviously, this \u201cCorn Chicken Soup from Scratch\u201d is neither Lebanese nor Middle Eastern but it is a one we regularly make once or twice at our house during Ramadan, we make it throughout the year as well, often as a handy one pot soup, so if you\u2019re on the hunt for a new chicken soup\u00a0 let\u2019s make a batch together. I bet you\u2019re going to love it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Adas Bhamod<\/strong>\/ Lebanese Sour Lentil Soup:\u00a0<\/a>this comfy home-style soup is a belly warming treat that my mom made all the time when I was growing up; this was the first soup that I learned because it is an essential and popular soup in Lebanese cuisine. \u00a0With few ingredients and straightforward instructions, you will surprise and delight your taste buds the best way possible. A bowl of Adas Bhmad is loaded with flavor, color and texture!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There is nothing more satisfying than sipping a steaming bowl of soup after a long fasting day. It is a quick and tasty one made with fresh broccoli, cheese, milk and saut\u00e9ed onions. If you prefer a smooth soup, feel free to blend it, though I like it chunky.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Asparagus-Potato Soup:\u00a0<\/strong><\/a>What could be better than a hot steaming bowl of soup in the cold weather. This creamy asparagus-potato soup is full of rich flavors. I just love the combination.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Creamy Carrot Soup<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The ginger and curry leaves give the soup a comforting aroma and taste and the end result is something that is not only tasty, but really good for you! Carrots are a good source of beta-carotene and alpha- carotene which converts to vitamin A in your body (this helps maintain a healthy skin and can improve the health in your eyes) ! They are too rich in fibers.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tomato Basil Soup<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

This tomato basil soup \u00a0is easy, comforting, and has a rich flavor profile, and the best way to use up fresh tomatoes. You\u2019ll never want to go back to any tomato soup recipe!<\/p>\n
