Hot damn (operative word: hot), this'll put some pep in yer step!
If you need to make your nose run, or you just really like the spicy, try this soup:
Chop up about half a butternut squash, 2 carrots, and a few celery stalks and saute them in some olive oil for about 5 minutes on medium-high.
Add half a diced onion, about 5-6 minced cloves of garlic, and several tablespoons grated ginger. Saute these for about another 5 minutes.
Add 4 big chopped-up collard green leaves, 6 cups veggie broth (I used a mix of those little mushroom cubes and normal vegetarian broth), generous doses of cayenne pepper and curry powder (I figure I used about a teaspoon and a half of each, maybe more), a few lemon slices, about 8 quartered crimini mushrooms, and salt to taste. Simmer on medium-low for about 40 minutes, or until everything's nice and tender.
Remove from the heat and stir in about 1/4 cup miso. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
This is a variation on "Winter Sicky Soup" from How It All Vegan, and it really did the trick scaring away the remnants of my cold! It is hella spicy, but yummy.
