Hearty Soup recipes

[Derbynanny]

Has anyone got any hearty soup recipes.

My husband takes a large can of big soup to work for lunch every day but i am trying to wean him off these and onto home made SW soups.

So i need some tasty recipes

Thank you in advance

There you go, give this one a try.
Its very filling

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 (I find theses too strong and use a small turnip instead or just omit all together)
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.

Can be frozen



Enjoy

Chicken Noodle Soup

I made one the other day from one of the SW books its Chicken noodle soup, its just some poached chicken breast cut small, chicken stock, mushrooms, those thin vermicelli noodles, a little onion, a clove of garlic and some grated carrot.

It is really filling and my OH who is an engineer and so very active loved it and it kept him full at lunchtime. Hope this helps If you need the proper recipe let me know but soups is all about chucking things in for me then tasting it

I think the beany one might be 'too healthy' but may try it once and just accept it may be my lunch for a few days LOL

Chicken noodle is a great idea.

Hopefully there will be some more, i make veg soup all the time with the chuck it in theory but just don't want hubby looking for snacks because his soup was not good !

A good chicken broth with celery, carrots, onion, barley and chicken would be good n stodgy and healthy

Is barley free on plans?

Checked: yes it is, green and EE

BBC - Food - Recipes : Lamb, yam and butternut squash soup

This looks hearty, as does:

BBC - Food - Recipes : Smoked sausage and lentil casserole

You could SW it up using Quorn sausages or maybe even diced meat?

And Beyond baked beans is a brilliant site, nothing too complicated or expensive as its aimed at students. I have the cookbooks and I love the "green" one.

if you get the chance grab a slow cooker from asda only 7pound. they are brill. you can make up soup the night before leave it to cook, and you have a healthy lunch for the following morning.
