This yummy, smooth winter soup is perfect with crusty bread.
My kids love this soup, but change out the ingredients to your liking. Pumpkin doesn’t need to be roasted, if you’re lacking time but it does add a lovely rich flavour to the soup.
I always use real chicken stock rather than the powdered version as it adds so much more flavour.
Add in some chilly flakes if you want to add a bit of spice.
Ingredients (serves 8)
- 1 Bag of frozen mixed veg (beans, cauliflower, brocolli, carrots)

Method
