One easy:
Low sodium/fat veggie broth (I use powder, 1 tsp per 300-350 ml of water)
Frozen soup veggies (approx: 75gr per serving)
Soup pasta (letters, stars, dots, vermicelli.. approx: 10 gr dry weight per serving, something like a teblespoon)
Roasted pumpkin:
1 pumpkin/ butternut squash, about 1.2 kg, cut in half, seeds removed, and roasted side cut down til cooked
1 tsp olive oil
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, chopped
1 chilli pepper, seeds removed
Heat the oil in a soup pot, add garlic, pepper and onion and cook until translucent. Add the flesh of the pumpkin (about 1kg). Add enough water to cover, and some tandoori spice mix (about 1-2tsp). Simmer 15 minutes. Blitz with immersion blender and add enough liquid to make 8 servings.
I would just buy an immersion blender that you can also use for smoothies and other things, instead of a dedicated soup maker, but that's me0 -
I tend to just throw various chopped root vegetables in the pot and boil it up! Carrots, Swede/turnip, potatoes, parsnip, a few leeks or onions and maybe a vegetable stock cube if you think it needs it. I like to leave it chunky, but you could easily blend it if you wanted.
Depending on if I have a glut of vegetables sometimes I make potato and leek or carrot soup. My dad's made pea soup before too (he used leftover ham stock it was delicious!) Homemade minestrone is always delicious too!0
