We love soups at our home especially during cold weather. As eating out happens very rarely I end up making delicious soups like veg clear soup, classic tomato soup, vibrant beets soup or spicy manchow soup at home from scratch. These are some of our favorite winter recipes
This mixed vegetable soup is one such easy recipe I have been making since many years. More than a soup I used to feed this as a weaning food for my kid. I used to feed this for her snack or lunch when my kid was around 8 months. Of course when feeding for babies I don’t recommend corn or beans without doctor’s consent.
This mixed veg soup is easy and quick to make. It takes only 15 minutes and can be easily made in a pressure cooker. This is a smooth soup recipe with veg puree as base. Also this is the same base soup recipe I use for my pasta soup.
This is a simple and easy home style soup. No cream or other fancy stuff used here. With just a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper this is a humble, healthy and hearty soup. Just how a real soup should be 🙂
You can serve this mixed vegetable soup as starter or snack. For kids you can serve this as snack on its own or with some cheese toast, cheese balls, bread balls, veg rolls, veg cutlets, puff etc.
While serving as starter just add some croutons or bread sticks.
