Such a surprise winter, with snow piling up higher than ever in so many parts of the country. I couldn't think of a better recipe for these conditions than an old favorite, Rich and Creamy Potato Miso Soup. I shared it with you one year ago here on Frugal Foodie Friday, but felt it was certainly worth a revisit. It has since won a "No Croutons Required" blogger award, and has received kudos from several households nationwide. Not to mention, it is still one of my cold weather favorites.

This soup is very quick and easy to prepare, yet the resultant meal is full of flavor and has a wonderfully smooth, chowder-like consistency. Plus, though it is at its heart a dairy-free delight, it can be customized to fit a soy-free, gluten-free, and/or vegan diet. See the notes with the recipe for customization. Enjoy the recipe on One Frugal Foodie.
