It’s that time of the year to retreat indoors and get cosy with a warming bowl of hearty soup.
Stop reaching for a can of soup from the cupboard when you can easily make a large pot to feed the whole family. Not that there will be leftovers, but you can always make a large batch and keep them in containers in a freezer, to defrost on those days when you don’t feel like lifting a finger.
Serve with some crusty bread or have a whole bowl on its own, there’s nothing better than being cooped up on the couch with some homemade soup.
