This tasty soup costs just pennies to make and can be rustled up using frozen onions and store cupboard basics. The cost of the soup works out at about 40p a portion. You can substitute the veg stock for chicken stock or even water if needs be. #lunchideas #storecupboardcooking

Steps

1

Gently fry the onions and garlic on a medium heat, in oil, for 5 mins until they turn translucent and are starting to soften.
2

Add the herbs, salt, pepper and stock, tomatoes (tinned and fresh) and butter beans to the pan and allow to simmer, partially covered for 15 minutes.
3

Allow to cool slightly before blending. If you don’t have a blender, then serve as a rustic, chunky soup.
