As I said in a previous post, I'm tucked up in bed watching a DVD.
I have a large collection of DVDs, but I watch them so much I get bored of them, so today I dug out an old favourite; Annie.
This is probably one of my favourite bits of the movie, I hope you like it too :)
I'm going to make myself some parsnip, butternut squash and ginger soup... I'm sure that will have me feeling right as rain in no time.

Quick Vegetable Soup

I love home made soup and after getting soaked in the torrential rain on my way home from the shop, I decided to make this soup really quickly while my bath was running.
(You can use any frozen vegetables, but I'd just bought these so I thought i'd try them.)

Ingredients:
1 bag frozen vegetables
1 large onion
2 stock cubes (vegetable or chicken)
0.5tsp chilli powder
Salt and pepper
Water

1) Fill a kettle with water and boil.
2) Empty the bag of vegetables into a saucepan with one chopped onion and 2 crumbled stock cubes.
3) Cover with water and bring to the boil, then cover and leave to simmer for 10 minutes.
4) Once the vegetables are soft, you can blend with a hand blender.
5) Add the chilli and season to taste.
It's as simple as that!
