Super speed soup

How do you make super speed soup?

Well looking at blogs and forums it turns out there are lots of ways. I will have to try a few of them but found this one and have made it...

2 carrots
1 leek
1 turnip
1 onion
handful of frozen broccoli
1 tin mixed beans
1 tin baked beans
2 tins chopped tomatoes
handful lentils
1 1/2 pints beef stock
(NOTE I added some ground cumin and ground coriander for an extra something plus salt and pepper as I felt it was a little bland)

It's really easy to make- just chop up the veggies- throw them in a big pan with the beans/tomatoes and stock. add more water- to cover all veggies and bring to the boil
Boil the lentils in a separate pan for about 5-10 mins, until soft, and add to the soup pan.
Leave to simmer until the veggies are soft.


I found the recipe from here and more recipes besides
This is my attempt and I blended it as I want a thicker taste. Smells and tastes yummy
