Gemma’s speed soup

I like making soups -- they are realy tasty and I find that they help to boost my weight loss. I found this recipe on my friend Gemma’s blog and I tweaked it slightly based on what I had in!

Ingredients

-Fry Light;

-1 can mixed bean salad;
-1 can green lentils;
-2 cans chopped tomatoes;
-1 can baked beans;
-2 large leeks;
-2 medium onions;
-2 small tins of carrots;
-2 red & 1 green pepper;
-2 beef or chicken or vegetable stock cubes dissolved in water (I used chicken);
-Salt;
-Pepper;
-Mixed herbs;
-Garlic;
-Chilli powder.
 
Method
 
-Spray the pans with Fry Light and fry the onion, peppers and leeks;
-Add the salt, pepper, mixed herbs, garlic and chilli powder and fry for a further three minutes;
 
-I had to split the ingredients across two pans:





 










-Add all other ingredients, boil and simmer for 40 minutes;
-Blend.

The recipe above resulted in five very generous portions.
















This soup is really tasty and comforting. Perfect for cold winter days.
