Happy Friday! I hope you are all back on track and looking for some hearty tasty Slimming friendly recipes. I’ve long been promising more vegan recipes on the site, and I’ve come through with a few but I’ve definitely not gotten as many vegan recipes on as I would have liked. I’m actively working on changing that because I’ve asked you guys what you are looking for and you definitely want MORE healthy, vegan meals that the whole family will enjoy. 

This thick hearty vegan friendly soup will last 3 – 4 days and is one of those perfect “take to work” kinda dishes that can be reheated. This recipe is hard to resist and can work as a stand alone meal served with your Healthy extra B chunk of bread or as a filling snack. Don’t let the vegan tag scare you away either.. this recipe is delicious for anyone!

Looking to take this soup to work?

My dad actually recommended this product after he started his weight loss journey. He is obsessed with homemade soup (and his soup maker may I add..) and he was desperate to take soup to work. His company is tight and wouldn’t fork out for a microwave so he invested in this awesome soup thermos. It will keep food hot for up to 6 hours! Perfect for soup, porridge, curry etc.
