Tuesday: Spinach and Carrot soup

Oh the warmth of a good veggie soup on a cold night like tonight! Simple dimple yet again, one pot and a little simmering time.

Start with a tablespoon of olive oil and one small onion chopped. Saute until transparent.

Then:

Add four cups of water

Add in a tablespoon of organic vegetable base

Sprinkle in some herbs such as basil, rosemary and a little ground pepper.

Add to this three carrots cut into small circles.

Add a large handful of baby spinach.

You can add a 1/2 cup of whole wheat couscous for a little starch if you need the extra boost.

Simmer until everything is cooked through!
