Something old becomes something new…
My website died. Suddenly.
Hundreds of recipes. Gone. No carnitas. No chocolate fondant cake. No memories. It was time to rebirth this testament to a life of feasting.
15 years of content takes a long time to migrate. Please enjoy the gradual relaunch of French Foodie Mom: a recipe repository.
Let the feasting begin again!

Recipes make their way into this blog after three dinner trials. Hope your family likes them as much as ours does.
Creamy Cream-free Mushroom Soup
This flavorful cream-less cream of mushroom soup is delicious. The mushrooms give it the creamy texture, but there is no fattening cream added. The earthy and rich flavor of this soup makes me happy that it is fall.
Roasted Vegetable Coconut Milk Bisque
Lately I’ve been roasting vegetables and giving them some sweet heat with curry, ginger and coconut milk. I’m calling it Roasted Vegetable Coconut Milk Bisque. My kids are calling it lunch, snack, and double thumbs up.
Roasted Butternut Squash Soup: the Perfect Way to Celebrate Fall
This simple roasted butternut squash apple soup is my children's comfort food. As soon as the leaves start falling, they start asking for it. They have it for lunch... for dinner... and even for afterschool snack.
Golden Vegetable Soup: a Forgotten Childhood Staple
This is the soup my sisters and I grew up with, the soup my mom served us for lunch on so many cloudy Parisian days when she was feeling uninspired. We complained about this vegetable soup, bored to tears by its simplicity and predictability, but now we crave it as adults. It’s what I often make as a gift to new mothers or sick friends: simple goodness in a bowl.
French Style Butternut Squash Soup with a Touch of Curry
This French style butternut squash soup is one of these bridging recipes. Simple ingredients, but powerful flavor. Butter, squash, shallots, a touch of curry, a wild drizzle of salt and pepper, and of course, a heaping spoonful of creme fraiche. It’s simple, but so good, exactly my mother’s type of cooking, soup therapy in a bowl, guaranteed to feed not only your belly, but also your soul with every bite.
Fire Roasted Tomato Soup
Fire roasted tomato soup is a celebration of color and flavor. One I can’t get enough of. Is there anything better than tomato soup to beat back the chill of fall and winter? I don’t think so, especially when the tomatoes have the kiss of fire roasting.
Vive la France! Here are my favorite French recipes.
