thin soup

[Driller]

If you are having some tomato soup from a tin.. after you have emptied the tin .. place a small amount of water in the empty tin, swirl it around and place the contents into the soup.. this will make the soup go much further .. its great for students and large families.

you can also put some tomato puree in the soup and some more water!.. its a great way to fool your friends/family into thinking you used 2 tins of soup!

Make your own soup - even cheaper. All it takes is a few vegetables and a stock cube. Frozen peas make wonderful soup, add a bit of mint and liquidise the peas when they're done - if you add cream it's even better. We always used to have soup made with the chicken carcass from Sunday and a broth posy, and pea soup made with the ham bone - yum.

boil potatoes and leek with a bit of celery...shove in the blender with a few pinches of basil and dill..... yum
