When winter sets in, Keziah Tor finds herself reaching for her stockpot. For her, nothing beats the feeling of a warm bowl of soup on a frosty evening—especially when it’s crafted to be as heart-healthy as it is delicious.
Keziah’s journey into heart-friendly cooking began when her father was advised to lower his sodium and cholesterol intake. She took the challenge personally, experimenting with fresh herbs, vegetables, and healthy fats to create soups that nourished the body without compromising on taste.
Her kitchen now fills with the scent of simmering lentil soup enriched with olive oil, tomato basil broth with whole grains, and miso-infused vegetable stew. She avoids heavy cream and processed bouillon, relying instead on pure vegetable stock and slow cooking to develop rich, deep flavors.
“There’s something comforting about knowing the food you’re serving is helping someone’s health,” she says. And on snowy nights, when the family gathers around steaming bowls, she knows her soups have done more than warm the room—they’ve warmed the heart.
For Keziah, these recipes aren’t just winter comfort—they’re a reminder that good health can be ladled out, one bowl at a time.
