Super Vegetable Soup

Super Vegetable Soup

I’m not a fan of recipes, simply because I like to be a little creative and find it hard to stick rigidly to a recipe.

Unsurprisingly things don’t always work out as they should, but they still end up tasting great.

For lunch I made a Super Vegetable Soup.

It’s super because:

  • I use all organic ingredients
  • It’s packed full of vitamins, minerals and hearty goodness
  • It’s really quick to make
  • I make it using only one pan
  • It’s great value for a fresh and nutritious meal that feeds 6 people
  • I chop the vegetables roughly because they’re blended with a Hand Blender

This soup is perfect for anyone wanting an easy, quick, healthy and filling meal to feed their family.

Organic Ingredients:

  • 1 small Red Onion
  • 2 cloves of Garlic
  • 2 Leeks
  • 2 Carrots
  • 6 New Potatoes
  • Half a Buttnernut Squash
  • 2 large handfuls of Kale
  • A splash of cream can be added to taste when serving

How I make it:

  • Chop onion, garlic, leeks and saute in a large pan. When sauteed I transfer these into a bowl whilst I prepare the remaining vegetables.
  • Chop the carrots, potatoes and butternut squash into small cubes and add water to just cover the vegetables. Boil until cooked.
  • Wash and chop the kale and add to the pan of boiling vegetables. Cook for 2 minutes.
  • Blend the vegetables in the pan using a Hand Blender.

And there it is, cooked and ready to eat!

I don’t add salt or pepper when cooking the soup so it’s suitable for my baby to eat.

Pepper and salt can be added to suit individual tastes when serving. Add a splash of cream if desired.

Serve the soup with warm crusty bread.

  1. I am such a big soup fan, don’t mind which. Love them all and luckily my children are fans too. The best food to eat in this weather and so easy to adapt flavours to suit your mood/taste and a great way of using what is in season.
    Great to meet you this morning and thanks for your comment on my blog 🙂 xx
