Directions
Makes 4-6 servings, 1 cup per serving

-Prepare all the vegetables by chopping, slicing or dicing depending on preference. I like a 'chunky' soup so tend to dice them roughly
-Cook the onion and garlic in a splash of water until soft.
-Add the rest of the veg to the pan and cover with the water.
-Add herbs and seasoning and bring to the boil
-Reduce to a simmer and allow to cook for 20-30minutes or until the veg has cooked.
-Mix the flour with a splash of water and add to the soup whilst stirring to thicken.
-Serve when thickened and enjoy!

-If desired, leave the soup to cool and then blend to make a smooth soup.
-Any veg can be used to make the soup. I use whatever I have left over in the fridge/cupboards.
