High Protein Chunky Vegetable Soup
Main Meals Egg Free, Gluten Free, Nut Free
April 10, 2016
That’s right, vegetable soup that’s high in protein. Not something you often hear in the same sentence is it? Now let me just start by saying I’m personally not a vegetarian, in fact far from it. I’d probably prefer to lose a limb than give up meat. But that doesn’t mean I don’t like to mix up my meals and hit my protein quota from different sources . I was also conscience that many of my savoury recipes are unsuitable for veggies, so this one is for you my friends!
Thank’s to Mumma Chef I had a tonne of home grown veggies that quite honestly I had no idea what to do with and were slightly past their best. It was also a very chilly Autumn day and I was really craving something warming like soup. So I rolled up my sleeves, dug out my tin of Blend Brothers high protein sauce, and got cracking creating this delicious High Protein Chunky Vegetable Soup!
