Hi Ali, thank you! I got the recipe from the super speed soup thread, this is it here:

Super Speed Soup

1 can mixed bean salad
1 can green lentils
2 cans chopped tomatoes
1 can baked beans
Handful of split lentils
2 large leeks
1 large onion
4 large carrots
2 parsnips
Green, red or yellow pepper
2 beef stock cubes
Salt & pepper
Mixed herbs
Water (enough to cover all ingredients)

Chop all veg and put everything in pan, cover with water bring to boil and simmer until veg are soft.

Can be left chunky or blended.

I left out the pepper and i blendid it, its quite sweet but filling and i really liked it and so did the OH. Beware for wind though! I was a bit worried after my first bowl full but my body got used to it quite quickly! phew! lol!

Its going to be constant eating out and drinking and i am soooo worried!
