This sounds tasty Judy. It is certainly soup weather.

Looks good. With spinach in the garden & now being soup whether will have to give this a go (I think I have everything in the pantry/freezer to make)

Thanks girls, I thought it was pretty good and having spinach growing was handy too.

No spinach here :( but I do have a garden full of KALE :o ... so off I go to pick some now. Thanks Judy, this is just what I needed today ;)

I came home late from work tonight to find DH having a go at making this (I had left the recipe by the TM for me to cook tonight) which was really nice.
We nearly had a big whoops as he asked me how much vegetable stock and I said 3 tablespoons, lucky I had the thought rule of thumb 1 tablespoon of stock to 500mls and realised after he only put 1 tablespoon in ... phew!
I had pulled out what I thought was tomato soup frozen to use in place of passata only to find out it was the sauce from a sausage pasta I had made last week.
End result it was very yummy, little miss kept on asking for more and the only thing it was probably didn't have as much tomato flavour as Judy's. The sausages were quite nice too ... another recipe to add to our favourite list, thanks Judy :)
