Fridge Soup

 I really hate throwing away good food that can be saved and after a look deep into the fridge and finding a few left over veg from other recipes I decided to make some lovely soup. 

I guess you can actually make left over soup from pretty much anything, I used to make 8 veg soup when my children were little and that was exactly what it says - any 8 veg ! 

It's cold here in Wales at the moment so soup is always welcome. Served with some lovely sourdough bread, a crumble of feta cheese and a little glug of olive oil, this made a lovely winters lunch.

Ingredients.

1 Red pepper roughly chopped

1 Yellow pepper roughly chopped

3 Large carrots roughly chopped

2 Onions roughly chopped

3 Cloves Garlic roughly chopped

3 Sticks celery roughly chopped

1 Vegetable or chicken stock cube ( pot )

Salt and pepper

Enough water to cover

Olive oil

Feta Cheese ( optional ) 


In a large ovenproof pot fry onions and garlic gently until soft, add celery peppers and carrots, fry gently for 5 minutes, add everything else, bring to the boil, turn heat down to a gentle simmer and cook with a lid for 30 minutes or until all the veg are nice and soft. 



Blitz with a stick blender and serve with feta, bread and a drizzle of olive oil.
