Aware this is a weight watchers recipe, HOWEVER I wanted to share with everyone (I'm not a member - my mum is and just made servings for over a week for lunches etc!) It is so delicious and whilst WW says '0' points I wouldn't automatically think 'oh wow no calories!', however I'd say this has very FEW calories, bearing in mind this recipe my mum has just followed exactly has literally made a weeks worth of soup! Its so delicious its now becoming my favourite snack!

6 large tomatoes

1 butternut squash

2 large red onions

1 medium red pepper

1 stick of celery

1 carrot

4 cloves of garlic

1 red chilli

Method

1. Pre-heat the oven to 190°C/Gas Mark 5. Dice the garlic and chilli and cut the rest of the vegetables into chunks.

2. Placethe vegetables into a tin, season, and roast in the oven for 45 minutes.

3. Place the roasted vegetables into a food processor, with 500ml of boiling water. Blitz until smooth.

4. Pour the mixture into a saucepan, adding another 500ml of water, bring to the boil and simmer. Ladle into bowls to serve.

I already have my school lunch for the next week sorted!!
