Warming Food - A Bowl of Soup

What better way to keep out those autumn chills than with a bowl of warm, nourishing soup.

Soups can be eaten as a starter dish, or with a heftier portion as a main course, especially if accompanied with crusty bread and butter. These two recipes  Cauliflower, Broccoli and Mustard Soup, and Vegetable and Bean Soup are filling dishes, more like supper in a bowl.

Soup is quick and easy to make and if full of fresh, vegetables, healthy. Whenever I make soup I always prepare ingredients to make a huge pot full as most recipes will freeze well ensuring I always have a tasty meal on hand.

An added bonus of making soup in these times of rising prices is that generally they are made from cheap and readily available ingredients like vegetables and cheaper cuts of meat.
