Oh baby, it’s (getting) cold outside! Which only means one thing – soup season is upon us. There’s nothing better than having nice hot soup on a chilly evening, or brightening winter lunch breaks with a warming bowl.
I love soup, but sometimes feel a bit restricted in my recipes – we all know, the perfect soups take time! I recently discovered a soup maker – yes, SOUP MAKER! – and I’ve honestly never looked back.
Morphy Richards have a awesome soup maker called Total Control. It lets you choose your desired soup consistency – smooth, medium or chunky – before blending up your chosen ingredients into a delicious, flavoursome soup.
I thought I’d share my latest creation that I’ve been whipping up in my soup maker:
Vegetable and Beef Soup
Ingredients
150g Potatoes cut small
50g carrots cut small
1 onion cut small
1 cup of peas
2 celery sticks cut small
400g canned tomato purée
600g beef stock
50g pasta of choice
40g thin beef
salt and pepper to taste
This was so easy to make and so so yummy – a real family crowd pleaser. it took 28 minutes on the chunky program, and it’s sorted our family for lunches and dinners for days. Soups are a great way to pack in those hidden veggies, so give a new recipe a try this winter and boost your family’s health at the same time.
I’m dying to get more creative with my soups now I’ve got my Morphy Richards Soup Maker. Share your favourite soup concoctions in the comments.
