Soup is the way forward now that autumn has fully arrived. As the days get colder and wetter, soup is a constant go to. They don’t take much time to prepare and cook, and can be so versatile which I love so you can always mix up these recipes as you like. This recipe is perfect after a long day at work and you’re not quite feeling a long winded time in the kitchen cooking.
Serves 2
Ingredients:
- 1 can (400g) peeled plum tomatoes in tomato sauce.

- 250ml vegetable stock
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small red chilli, deseeded and roughly chopped

Method:
