ZUCCHINI AND LEEK SOUP
As you can probably see from my blog to date, this is one of my favourite recipes. I make up a bit pot at the start of the week to enjoy for my work lunch or if I get peckish. It's made from approved low-starch and green vegetables and is yum!
Ingredients:
2 large zucchinis (or 3 small)
2 leeks (or one leek and one onion)2 carrots
Celery (2 or 3 stalks)1L vegetable or chicken stock (can be made with stock cubes / powder)
1 clove of garlic (optional)Salt and pepper to taste
Method:
Heat oil in pot, chop all vegetables, add to pot, stir until coated with oil. Cook for 5 mins, make sure it doesn't burn. Add stock, cook soup for 20 mins or until all vegetables are tender. Blend to a smooth consistency and enjoy!
Yum! Serve with lots of fresh cracked pepper. If you want to make it a little bit creamy without going crazy with the calories, a tiny amount of light cream cheese will do the trick.
