Tomato and Leek Soup
Tomato soup is a staple in my household and it has been a loooong time since we ate tomato (or any soup) that came out of a can. It is ultra fast to make and always tastes amazing. Add some fresh bread and you have a wonderful lunch in no time or a light dinner for a quiet night in. And even better, you know exactly what you’re eating….no nasty numbers here!
