I really have to be honest with this diary... It's the only thing that keeps me on track! Plus I think if I have to write it down it limits the damage I May do!! I made superspeed soup for about 2 months over the winter period and really made myself ill with it :( can't face it! Have to be careful that I don't end up doing the same with my superspeed superfree tomato soup :D I definitely love the soups so maybe gonna try and make a different type of vegetable soup this evening. I'll shall keep you updated! lol xx
 
I know what you mean about the soup, I haven't put baked beans in mine today, I can't cope with that sweetness in it.
The tomato soup sounds lovely, do you have the recipe in your diary?
