i made a soup :/

[loolahoop]

as the title says i have made a soup ...for the 1st time! lol
its the end of the week and i have done my new week shopping so some of my left over veg was looking a bit worse for wear , so instead of chuckin them out i have chucked em in a pot n made a soup lol!
theres carrot, runnerbeans, spinach, pepper, cauliflour, broccoli, mushrooms and leeks! a bit of a combo i know! lol
i added a veg stock cube, soem salt,pepper and garlic powder n it smells ok, am yet to taste it though!

is there any day red/green/EE that it wouldnt really be suitable for? i havent got my book to hand, but are these free on all days??

Yep they're all superfree on all plans! Well done on making your first soup & its a great way to use up any old veg thats lying around. Another thing you can do with any fresh/leftover veg is cook it up, mix some light phili cheese thru it & serve with rice/pasta or jacket potato.

think i will try that with the philly and pasta next week that sounds yummy, sounds like a nice green day dinner!

well my soup looks DISGUSTING!! lol with all those colors blended together it looks liek a brown gooey mess! lol but it actually doesnt taste too bad! lol think i may add a few herbs or spices to it though tis a little bland lol ...reminds me of pureeing for baby food again! lol xXx

When I make soup, I just take half of it out, blend that half and put it back in the pan, that way you have a nice colored soup, is not too thick and baby food looking and you still get chunks of veg too
