Soup of the Day

No, I’m not posting an article on soup every day, the title was intended to be humorous. Gosh.soup1

Anyway, this week I sampled celebrity chef Marco Pierre White’s (very expensive!) soup.

There was large variety of fancy soup flavours, but in the end, I went for Moroccan Tomato and Chickpea.

Utter yum.

Why did I choose this? No idea. I like chickpeas and tomato soup is a fail-safe choice, so that’s what I went for.

Deep orange in colour and laced with peppers and basil, the soup didn’t let me down.

Now I am a soup fan – it’s possibly one of the best foods ever, especially because it’s easy to make. But this soup was a cut above.

Good points about the soup-y goodness:

  • Tastes much more exotic and different than any other tomato soup.
  • Thick soups are really filling.
  • You can just warm this soup in the microwave, mess free!

Bad points:

  • Makes your breath smell pretty bad afterwards, I’d imagine.
  • Washing up the bowl afterwards is pretty gross, ’cause the colour is very strange.

I’d buy it anyway, in spite of the bad points. It does cost between £2 and £3 for one tub, but I’d say it was worth it.
