September Soups

I love soups this time of year, served in a mug works best if you want to keep gaming whilst eating.

Carrot Soup

• 6 rashers of bacon
• 8 carrots
• 1 litre of vegetable stock
• Carrot tops or spinach
• Cream cheese
• Parsley for garnish
• Bread to serve

Cut up and cook the bacon in a pot until cooked. Chop up and add the carrots and the stock to the pot. Once soft, add the carrot tops or spinach for a few minutes until all cooked. Blend and serve into bowls or mugs. Stir in a spoonful of cream cheese and add a sprig of parsley for garnish. Serve with bread and butter.
