I cook a lot of soups and chicken and other stuff, but this one is just perfect for a cold fall/winter day, as it contains tons of yummy vegetables. Plus, this family recipe is at least 100 years old from my great grandmother, who used to cook this. Every cook does it slightly different, though. Enjoy the hot vitamin dose, and freeze the rest for busy days!

1 onion
1 big clove of garlic
4 golden potatoes
3 big carrots
Fresh cabbage (green and purple)
Portobello mushrooms
Green peas
Celery
Fresh greens (parsley, spring onions, dill)
Pepper, salt, bay leaves
Cube of vegetable broth

I make Latvian-style meatballs to make the soup a perfect meal and have a perfect iron intake (as I don’t like red meat). Mix ground pork and beef (three-fifths pounds) with one fresh egg to keep the meat together, then add garlic, onion, pepper, and coriander. Once combined, roll into little balls, place on a plate, and let it sit for 40 to 60 minutes in the refrigerator, or overnight.

Chop and add the veggies together in your broth, cooking over a medium heat until it comes to a boil. Meanwhile, brown the meatballs in a saucepan over a medium heat in a couple tablespoons of olive oil — just enough to get the pink out. The soup's total cooking time is two to two and a half hours; meatballs should cook in the broth for about 20 to 25 minutes.

MEMORABLE MOMENT: I would say I really had three of my favorite moments that I never experienced before. First one was Calvin Klein show that was my first time for them and I just love the new studios the location was beautiful the music collection was so fresh it really felt like this is one of my first big shows, this is my time to shine. It felt really great to be back and to be noticed, I felt like all the hard work had paid off.

And the second was Tom Ford. I went to London and I got to meet him in person. He’s really a legend and I just loved his personality, he’s charismatic, smart and of course very talented. He’s interested in so many different things and is so welcoming, I really connected with the way he views the world. Just seeing him work was a privilege. The house itself and the show was so private – everybody had a couch and it’s the hardest to get into so it’s very small and intimate. You walk into the room and it is very quiet, but sexy and with a great feeling. I had this mirrored dress it was super short, made to look like little pieces of glass – so beautiful!

My final moment would be the Victoria’s Secret show. That was my third year and this year I got wings, plus I got to open the Pink section. I think the first girl just gets to surprise everyone about what the look is going to be this year. I kind of felt this energy from the moment I stepped backstage – it was great working with them the third time around.
