Simple and yummy broccoli and cauliflower soup

Still feel sick, but towards the evening had to put my all energy together and prepare myself a soup. It really helped me - I was  all sweating when eating it, it has soothed my throat and release the mucus both form the chest and nose. It is No 1 remedy to fight the flu!

Simple and yummy veggie soup

Small cauliflower
Small broccoli
One large carrot
Small leak
A cube of chicken stock
100g of milk
Few bay leaves

How to:

Cut cauliflower, broccoli, carrot and leak in a small cubes/chunks and put in a pan. Pour some cold water and add some bay leaves. Boil everything for around 10 minutes, add the chicken stock cube directly to the liquid in a pan, stir it well. When the veggies are soft and cooked, pour milk in and simmer for another 2 min.
Take away the pan form the hob and leave it to cool for few minutes. Remove the bay leaves,  pour in a food processor and blend it until smooth.
You can dish it straight away. I enjoyed it with some nice turkey fillet ham.

Tips: 

• if you are in hurry, you can use frozen veggies - they already cut to the right size and this will save you time
• milk is not necessary
• if you like chunky veggies in your soup - don't blend it

Idea:

Try add some chicken in it , it will be more protein rich soup and will still taste great!
