Home-made 'cup-a-soup'
Your perfect home-made 'pick-me-up'
Shop bought cup-a-soup is literally an industrial and, in my view, inedible product. It is indeed a practical dish to take to work or school and that is why I am giving you my home made version. It is nourishing, filling and super delicious. You can prepare and pack in the night before to grab in the morning. This way you know exactly what’s in your food. Just add hot boiling water and you are good to go. The nice thing about this recipe is that you can play with the ingredients and flavours, change it every time so you can create your own favourite version according to what you ave at home.
