Soups can stand front and center for a complete winter meal, but they make an excellent first course for a festive holiday menu too. These six colorful soups all make a dazzling way to start off any special meal! For a fancy supper, I like to serve an easy soup for the first course, light salad for the second course, and for the main course, I serve a meatless loaf, stuffed mushrooms or stuffed squash. On the side, I offer roasted vegetables or steamed green veggies. For dessert, vegan cookies, pie, vegan cheesecake, mousse, truffles or festive cake all make an excellent sweet treat!
