Super Speed Food Challenge Soup

[pesty]

I have to admit that i prefer mine blended to. When i made it i blended half and kept half lumpy so that i could mix it up and stop it getting monotanous (sp?)

Well done on the loss for you and hubby!!

Zoe I don't have a proper 'posh' blender I just use one of those stick ones for the soup! You can get them at Asda at the moment for about £4.20

That's what I use as well. I couldn't be bothered to blend the whole lot in one go either and divided it up into servings, froze them and defrosted and blended them as and when I fancied it. I am the great procrastinator, never do today what you can possibly postpone til tomorrow!

I am still to try this soup, I think I will try and remember the ingredients on Monday, when I go shopping.

[zoemee20]

[ChicaConCurvas]

Don't forget you can spice it up if you need to! Just remember how good for you it is! lol

 

[zoemee20]

I made a small amount this weekend as OH is ill! It was LOVELY!!! I blended a small amount to give it a thicker sauce.

I LOVE SOUP!!!!

I've just made this soup and it is gorgeous!! I've just eaten some for breakfast!!! I didn't have all the ingredients so I just made it up as I went along!! I used:
2 parsnips
1 green pepper
1 large onion
A few broccoli florets
1 can of baked beans
1 tin of mushrooms
A bit of chilli
Half a can of tomatoes

It really is lovely!!

 

[pesty]

I make variations of this all the time!! Its nice to mix it up a bit!

Yours sounds lovely, i had some of a blended vegetable one which i made on sunday for breakfast this morning, its so lovely to start the day with something all warm!! xx

 

[ChicaConCurvas]

I'm not sure I could manage it for breakfast but each to their own! lol Mind you I'm hooked on couscous with sultanas and mullerlite for my brekkie.........and for lunch sometimes...........and one night I even had it when i got home from work as well because I couldn't be bothered making anything else! Those are the days I don't complete my diary.........

I love the sound of the soup, but then again I love veggies. Just found a recipe in a Heart magazine that I am going to try to change a bit for a free food.

I love the speed soup
I have had a few bowls of it this week and also been having at least 2 pieces of scan bran a day to help my loss.
Fingers crossed I will lose on weds. xxx

 

[*fairy*]

I think I am going to go into town and get the ingredients for this today. I don't like half of them but we shall see how it goes xx

 

[mechmanuk]

when i first did this i tasted and thought ummmm its okay. But a night in the fridge and warmed back up in the microwave has made all the difference for me anyways.

I don't like many of those veg but blended up might be ok!! Anything for extra weight loss!! x
