Give this super tasty, green soup a go this Winter. It’s packed full of goodness and is great for toddlers, children and adults. Perfect served with a cheese sandwich!

 

 

Ingredients

 

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium white onion
  • 1 head of broccoli
  • 1 head of cauliflower 
  • A few good handfuls of frozen peas 
  • 2 x reduced sodium vegetable stock cubes 
  • Around 60g grated parmesan cheese 
  • Black pepper to taste 

If you want to make the ‘eyeballs’ for the Halloween Witches Brew then you will also need a babybel (or something similar) and some poppy seeds.

Method

  1. Dissolve your stock cubes in a 200ml of boiling water and set aside.
  2. Finely dice your onion and heat your oil in a large, heavy base pan that has a lid.
  3. Add your onions to the pan over a low/medium heat and pop on the lid to sweat off the onions. Keep a close eye on this as you don’t want the onions to brown as it will cause a bitter taste.
  4. Once the onions are nice and soft, roughly chop your broccoli and cauliflower and add to pan. 
  5. Pour in your stock and then top up with boiling water until the vegetables are just sticking out of the top by a few millimetres. We want a nice thick soup so it’s easy for your little one to scoop. 
  6. Bring to simmer, cover and cook for 15 – 20 minutes or until veg is nice and soft. Add your frozen peas and cook for a couple more minutes. 
  7. You can now blend your soup with a stick blender until nice an smooth. Stir in your parmesan cheese and black pepper to taste and serve!
  8. If you want to serve for Halloween, you can make some little eyeballs for ontop with cheese. I used the end of a reusable straw to cut out little circles and popped a poppy seed in the centre.
