This recipe contains the beginner cook’s magic word: “microwave”. It is a low-fat, three-step recipe that’s perfect for the culinarily-challenged and goes from raw ingredients to steaming soup in less than 10 minutes. One serving contains 5% of your daily sodium intake, whereas an equivalent portion of a typical canned soup contains 55%. High quantities of vitamin A and fibre only add to this soup’s appeal.
