Autumn, the season for Celeriac Soup and Low Carb Foccacia Bread

One of my favourite seasons is Autumn. The past few days here in the UK the mornings have definitely had that ’Autumnal Nip in the Air’ the temperature has dropped, some of the leaves are beginning to change colours and all together you get a different feel about things. Weather permitting, it's a time for getting out and about and enjoying the season, and then returning home to a wonderful bowl of soup and bread ... low carb of course! You may like these two recipe suggestions.

Here's a low carb tasty soup, perfect for Autumn/Winter Days

Cream of Celeriac Soup

Celeriac is a great autumn/winter vegetable, it is also a low carbers favourite. I saw this very nice recipe by James Martin, and thought it one to share. It does make a creamy soup, and for an added touch can be served with crispy pancetta and croûtons ... although it does have a nice taste without this ... so it's up to you dear reader whether or not to add the garnish!
