curried BNS looks nice too. BNS is one of my favourite soups

1 portion(s) (large) Butternut Squash, peeled, de-seeded and diced into 1 inch cubes

2 medium Onion, All Types, quartered

2 cube(s) Stock Cube, Vegetable, vegetable, make up to 2 pints with hot water

1 1/2 teaspoons (level) Curry Powder 1 pinch Salt, to taste 1/4 teaspoons (ground) Pepper, Black (Whole, Cracked or Ground) 2 medium Spring Onions, thinly sliced, to garnish Preheat oven to Gas Mark 7/220°C/425°F. Place squash and onion in a large roasting pan or baking dish. Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes, until squash is tender. Don't worry if some of the pieces get a bit browned - this will add to the roasted flavour of the soup. Remove from oven. Tip into saucepan and add stock. Bring up to the boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Let cool about 15 minutes - do not pour hot soup directly into food processor, or you risk it exploding. Purée in batches in blender or food processor. Toast curry powder in a small frying pan over low heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes - be careful not to burn it. Stir into puréed soup. Season to taste and divide between six bowls. Garnish with spring onions and serve.

[h=1]Vegetable Soup[/h] [h=2]Zero Pro Points[/h]
Serves: 8
Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Cooking Time: 30 Minutes

Ingredients:
1 Very Large Courgette, Finely Chopped
2 Large Carrots, Finely Chopped
2 White Onions, Finely Chopped
2 Large Leeks, Sliced
1 Cup Butternut Squash, Diced
1 Stick Celery, Finely Chopped
1 Parsnip, Finely Chopped
2 Vegetable Oxo Cubes, Crumbled
2 Bay Leaves
2 Cloves Garlic, Crushed
1 Teaspoon Tomato Purée
Low Fat Cooking Spray
Enough Hot Water To Cover

Method:
1. Using a few sprays of oil, sweat all of the vegetables and the garlic in a large pan for 10-15 minutes until soft and tender.
2. Add the bay leaves, the crumbled Oxo cubes, and the tomato purée.
3. Add just enough water to cover the vegetables.
4. Bring to the boil then reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
5. Remove the bay leaves and blend the soup using a stick-blender until very smooth and no lumps remain.
6. Add more water if necessary to adjust consistency (I prefer it thick as I find it much more filling).
7. Taste and season, I add quite abit of black pepper to mine as it gives it a spicy kick.
8. Serve with a small dollop of natural yogurt, if you wish ( point accordingly).

This recipe freezes really well so you can always have some ready for when the hunger pangs kick in.
Give it a try it really is lovely. I actually got this recipe off a blog on Weight Watchers, called – In Pursuit of Slenderness

If you want a fab soup then I would recommend Nigel Slater's Butternut squash and paprika. The video for how to make it is in the bbc website just have a wee search. it is so silky smooth and really tasted = in short it's brilliant.
