Soup Recipes

Soup recipes are so versatile.   You can have a hearty soup as a main meal or a light soup as an appetizer.   Most of these soup are perfect as a main meal in themselves, especially if you serve them with some bread.   Crusty bread rolls or pitta breads go perfectly with soup.

Soup is also a really healthy choice.   Most of these recipes are packed full of vegetables so are a great way to get some of your 5 a day.   They're also balanced with many containing a mixture of carbs, vegetables and protein.

You can easily cook soup from scratch.   It's also a great way of avoiding food waste. Often vegetables which are losing some of their freshness are still good in these one pot meals.   If you have too many vegetables that need to be used up then making a big batch of soup and then freezing it is a perfect option.

Most of these soup recipes are ideal for batch cooking and can be prepared in advance and then easily reheated.

Soup is also a great meal to prepare with store cupboard ingredients.   If you have tinned tomatoes and beans plus a few spices, you can make a delicious and tasty soup even if the fridge is bare!
