Notes

  • If you prefer the soup a bit thinner you can add an extra cup or two of broth.
  • If you don’t have a hand blender, transfer it in stages to your blender jug and blend until smooth. 
  • Top with cilantro for a pop of freshness.
  • Add some cayenne or nutmeg, for an extra kick of spice.
  • Serve with some crusty bread for dipping!
  • You can easily double this hearty recipe if you want to plan for meals ahead or serve a big crowd.
