Thanks Irishbird... I will be trying this for sure.

Question - if you blend it does the lentils not get blended too? If so, how do you even taste them?

Today I had absolutely fab BLT bap (brown) with warmed streaky bacon and cheese on it!

A lovely Friday treat......

John Mason · 08-10-2010 3:33pm

i dont know about tasting the lentils, i throw them in everything because they are full of protein and i dont eat meat but i love the soup and it really stops we snacking and being hungry all day

CathyMoran · 11-10-2010 3:59pm

Microwave pasta and mayo - still hoping to find a "protein". Decaff coffee with a splash of milk.

Faith · 11-10-2010 4:56pm

Susie_Q · 12-10-2010 8:21pm

Cully & Sully's vegetable soup. Really creamy and delicious and the ingredients list is wonderfully short and pronounceable. I usually make my own soups but this was definitely a winner for a store-bought option.

Can I ask the recipie? Thanks.

John Mason · 14-10-2010 1:25pm

I dont use soup recipes, i grab whatever i have lying around and throw it in a pot, boil until veg are soft and blend. soup is the easist thing in the world

but this is what i done

Ingredients:
use whatever vegetables are in your fridge - this batch has

potato, turnip, cabbage, carrots, parsnip, leek

Onion
Garlic
Herbs
tin of Tomatos
lentils
pint of stock

Method
1. Fry some onion and garlic until golden

2. Add some herbs (i used parsely, thyme and rosemary)

3. Throw the veg and lentil in and stir for about 5 mins

4. Add tin of tomatos

5. Add Stock

6. Simmer until veg is soft

7. I dont like lumpy soup, so i blend it fully and it also means des has no idea what vegetables are in it and cant refuse to eat it

CathyMoran · 14-10-2010 1:27pm

Thank you for posting it - I have to learn how to cook, that looks OK to do. It may be the first ever thing that I have cooked
