Even the most impatient and inexperienced home chefs can make a wonderful soup. Of course, we are not talking about complex and sophisticated dishes but about real homemade soups. You can try time tested grandmother’s recipes or even use canned and frozen vegetables which give us the opportunity to save time and at the same time create something delicious.

The market offers a wide variety of frozen vegetables – green beans, zucchini, broccoli, young peas are available throughout the year. When buying a large pumpkin, for example, many people wonder what to do with the remaining pulp? Just cut the pumpkin into small cubes or mash it in a blender, put them in ziploc bags and store them in the freezer. You can do the same with other vegetables, mushrooms or herbs, as well as with broth. Most traditional soup recipe ideas require a long heat treatment of all the ingredients. As a result, many vegetables lose their rich color and original taste. This can be avoided if you add some fresh vegetables, herbs and aromatic spices to the frozen ones. They will give the soup a fresh, bright taste and a pleasant crunchiness, and at the same time provide vitamins to the body.
