Healthy Lentil & Veg soup

I don't know about you guys, but I am finding the sudden weather change depressing almost. Especially seen as just over a week ago I was tanning myself in Marbella- and now I'm jumping over puddles and getting umbrellas caught in my hair!

After work last night I could think of nothing more that I wanted to do than relax and have a bit of me time.

I made a massive hearty lentil soup- it was so good! I made loads and have put 4 more portions in the freezer! :)

I don't have exact amounts on how much I used because I just kept adding and tasting as I went. But I will give you a list of the ingredients.

Basically I: 

•Boiled some water with 2 organic vegan vegetable stock cubes and salt and pepper.

•Added 2 big chopped carrots

•1 big white onion

•3 stalks of celery

•1 cup of green lentils

•1 cup of yellow split peas

•3 big garlic cloves

• Chopped tomatoes (or 1 tin of toms)

•Chilli powder

•Mixed herbs

•Another stock cube and more salt and pepper

I boiled it all up for 15 minutes whilst stirring, then left it to simmer for 40 minutes- tasting and adding seasoning as I went.

I had about 3 kettle full amounts of water to mine- and it made 5 good sized portions.

I hope you enjoy it :)

I have lots and lots of soup recipes to come- I am so excited that winter is here. My winter recipes are my favourites! & I have so many of them!

Enjoy :)
