Why I love this...
When the days get shorter and the temperature drops there are few things more warming and comforting than a good soup! This one is oh so simple to make with just a few ingredients, but is absolutely delicious. Plus it's really versatile - just add your favourite protein or grain to make it a little more filling. I used leftover roast chicken recently, but you could also add fried tofu or boiled pearl barley.
