You can’t beat a delicious homemade soup when the weather gets colder, and this one is fantastically low in calories at 154 calories a serving, so you could even have a lovely crusty roll with it and still be under 300 calories for your lunch. Carrot and Parsnips are deliciously sweet and tasty, and with a hint of onion and garlic for that extra depth of flavour this soup will tickle your taste buds on a cold and frosty day.
A lot of our members are using soup makers, but you can do this just as easily in a pan. Why not make a big batch and freeze for lunches throughout the week?
