Tasty Tuesdays Recipe

A great way to use up those tomatoes that all seem to ripen at once!

Tomato and vegetable soup

In a medium saucepan, sauté 1 small finely chopped onion, 2 chopped sticks celery, 4 crushed cloves garlic and ¼ tsp each of basil, oregano and chilli flakes. Add 5oz quartered button mushrooms and 1 medium, sliced courgette and cook approx. 5 minutes. Stir in 1 tin butter beans, 400g tin chopped tomatoes, 8oz passata and 180ml water.  Bring to the boil, simmer to heat through.
