"Fridge clean out before my weekend grocery shop sees the bins and containers ready for the fresh produce, it also sees to using whatever is left over from the past week for a pot or two of soup. Mix and matching vegetables that go well together makes for delicious soups. Creamed soups are wonderful for lunches and evening meals. Makes for great taste and no waste. This one is my basic and one I finally measured and got down on paper ‘Broccoli and Cauliflower’ recipe but any combination you have on hand will work, if you are short of a vegetable I find potatoes are a good add in. This makes for a large pot, the recipe not only can be halved but very open to your vegetable choices. Freezer friendly, using the screw lid freezer containers see the soup as fresh as the day it was made."
