Ingredients

    1 courgette, halved and thinly sliced
    200g frozen peas, defrosted
    1 vegetable or chicken stock cube or concentrate
    250g bag of ready-cooked basmati rice (or left-over cooked, cooled rice)
    100g bag baby spinach
    4 tbsp pesto (fresh from the chiller cabinet has the best flavour and colour)
    olive oil for drizzling (optional)
    grated parmesan, to serve

Method

    Boil the kettle. Tip the courgette and peas into a large bowl and cover with boiling water. Cover the bowl, then leave for 3 mins until the vegetables have softened slightly. Meanwhile, re-boil the kettle and make up 600ml/1pt of stock and taste it for seasoning as this is the base of the soup.
    Drain the veg, then put back into the bowl along with the rice and spinach leaves. Pour over the hot stock, then cover and leave for another 2 mins until heated through and the spinach has wilted.
    Season to taste, then ladle the soup into serving bowls. Add a swirl of pesto, olive oil, if using, and the grated parmesan. Serve with crusty bread.
our bodies lose a lot of water so we need to rehydrate. The following seven soupy drinks are especially good for summer time. They cool down and detoxify the body and help lower blood lipid levels (fat build up in arteries), among many other benefits mentioned below.
1. Mung Bean Soup
Drinking mung bean soup helps cool down the body and detoxifies. It is great in quenching thirst. Mung bean soup is a traditional and popular drink in summer for Chinese.
Tomato
Children's all-time favourite and a great comforter for adults, too. Tomatoes (raw and cooked) contain lycopene, an important antioxidant which helps to protect against heart disease.
However, tomato soup usually contains a lot of cream, often double cream, which increases the calorie and fat content.
Children may favour the tinned 'cream of' varieties, but they contain sugar and additives such as citric acid, so introduce the fresh soup options, particularly Mediterranean Tomato, which has extra vegetables such as vitamin-rich red peppers and courgettes.
Another healthier alternative is Tomato and Basil, which doesn't normally contain cream. Basil is believed to be protective against cancer.
