Clear Out The Fridge Soup
If, like me, you always have some sad looking vegetables at the back of your fridge at the end of the week, try this Clear Out the Fridge Soup! Literally add everything to a large pan and simmer until ready. It’s creamy and delicious and full of plant-based goodness.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion
- ½ small swede
- ½ celeriac
- 2 small potatoes
- ¼ butternut squash
- 2 carrots
- ½ head of broccoli including the stalk
- 1 tsp sea salt & lots of black pepper
- A few sprigs of thyme
- 700 g butter beans (24oz)
- 2 litres of veg stock (8 cups)
Instructions
- Peel and roughly chop all the vegetables. Heat up the oil in a large pan. Fry the onion in the oil for a couple of minutes.
- Add the other vegetables and all the other ingredients to the pan and bring to the boil. Simmer until the veg is cooked (about 20 minutes).
- Once cooked, blend until smooth (I just use a stick blender for this). Season again, if needed, and serve with some extra herbs and a drizzle of cream, if you like.
Notes
- This recipe is super flexible so you can really use any veggies you have lying around in your fridge – just try and keep the quantities similar.
- This soup freezes very well and will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months. It will also keep in the fridge for 3-4 days, if you want to make a big batch for easy lunches.
