This soup is a BIG favourite with everyone. It's great on a cold winter's day - though in our home, we enjoy it any time of the year. Not only is it tasty, it also helps you stock up on lots of fresh veggies and nutrients. The great thing about the soup is that it can be varied depending on what vegetables you have lying around such as, celery, green beans. I always avoid mushrooms though as I personally don’t think the texture goes. The same applies for the herbs and spices
