Re: winter warmer soup diet
soup is a great healthy option, not just to loose weight. I like to cook it all up in the slow cooker too, but I don't bother with store bought stock, if you are cooking mainly veg for a long time you are pretty much creating your own stock anyway! I do tend to put an oxo cube in there to add some flavor though.
my favourite is tomato and basil > lots of onion, carrot, tomato puree, tomatoes (of course!) fresh basil from my window box, bit of sweade, bit of leek, and any other veg I have left in the fridge. I can quite easily get the boys 5-a-day in a soup and DS1 loves it.
