Audrey generally provides my working week lunch and anything that's veggie & low fat in her range is lovely.
But I do like her butter bean & carrot the most.

Boil a cauliflower until soft.
Blend it up with the water used to cook it in.
Add salt,pepper & lasing of horse radish sauce.
Grate a bit of Parmesan on the top.
Hugh you've got nothing on me son!
Challenge you to a cook-off BRT?
My soup is now simmering, it smells gooood!
SO - but surely not as complex as mine
I only look like that on special occasions
Whilst I have a spare 20-25 mins, here are some of the other soups I have in my cook book;
Carrot potage
Leek & potato
Brown bean soup
Leek & lentil
Mulligatawny soup
Celery & peanut
Tomato & pasta
Mushroom soup
French onion soup - I remember making this one at school many, many years ago.
We had to invite some of the teachers to lunch and give them a 3 course menu. French onion soup was the starter.
I put loads and loads of cheese in it. One of the staff members had quite a bushy beard - he ended up with stringy bits of cheese all over his beard!!
celery and peanut???

Mmm Beebs, that sounds yummy.
I adore soup. I could live off it (and did at one point when cash was tight - £5 per week on food eek!)
Reading this has made me hungry so I'm off to dust off the tins in the pantry in search of some. I know home-made's best, but my lack of hours means opening a tin and toasting a bagel is all I can manage.
