The Eat as Much as You Like Soup!
When the cold, dark nights draw in, soup is the perfect thing to eat. And if you make it yourself, you can make delicious concoctions that are fat free. Don't ever be scared to experiment when you're making stuff either - for some cooking comes naturally, others not so much. But at the end of the day, you're not going to kill yourself by making a mistake with a veggie soup. It just might taste a bit bland. Here's a Butternut Squash and Chickpea soup.
Ingredients
2 Birds eye chillies
3 cloves of garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
Cumin
Turmeric
5 carrots, peeled and chopped
Bunch of celery
1/2 butternut squash
6 tomatoes, chopped
Chop everything up and chuck in a sauce pan. Cover with water, add the seasoning and simmer until the veggie's are soft but not completely mushy! Whizz in a food processor or with a hand blender. I like to leave mine a little bit chunky.
Then adjust the seasoning to taste and add the chickpeas and serve. This is so healthy, you can eat as much as you like!
