I made this soup today for a friend who was calling over for lunch and a catch up. It takes no time at all to prepare and it is so delicious. Most… if not all of the ingredients we would already have in our cupboards.

Apart from being very tasty another plus of this soup is that is guilt free as it doesn’t contain cream or flour to thicken it up…the tomatoes take care of that.

I served it with my homemade egg wraps filled with chicken salad. A perfect partner with a warm bowl of soup. A filling ZERO CARB meal too!!
