Here is the third soup from my series, which is chunky minestrone. The others in the series can be found here. A well known soup, which is vegetable packed and so hearty and filling due to the potato and pasta it contains. My version is quite chunky and thick, but you can easily thin it out as I mention later. This comforting soup is full of different textures, and is very low fat!

Soup Series 2: Chilli chickpea and red lentil soup

This is the second soup recipe in my soup series that I have decided to do over Winter. The first was roasted butternut squash and sweet potato chilli. This is another healthy soup, which is tomato based and thickened by lentils. It's packed full of spice and has a kick from the chilli. If you are not a fan of chilli, you can always leave them out. The flavour of this soup makes me think of Morocco. It's weird because I've never been, but it is exactly what I imagine the local food to be flavoured like.

Soup Series 1: Roasted butternut squash and sweet potato chilli soup
Home-made soup on a cold winters night is so warming, it is the perfect meal. A small portion can be enjoyed as a starter, or you could go for a bigger portion and have it as your dinner. It is such a healthy meal too as you can easily pile in loads of vegetables, and a great way to get kids to eat their veg - they will have no idea what has gone in! So because of this, I have decided to do a soup series. Over the remaining weeks of winter, I will post six soup recipes...
The Six Soup Series!
This soup's main ingredients are butternut squash and sweet potato, which make it so filling. It is a lovely thick and creamy soup, which is full of flavour with an extra little kick from the chilli.
