Soup is definitely my favourite lunch - especially since I started to experiment with flavours that I wouldn't necessarily have put together in the past! Last week I tried a curried swede soup after I found a 500g pack of ready prepared swede in Asda reduced to 37p, to be honest though, the full price was only 50p so it's well worth the money anyway if you ask me.

Slimming World quiche is basically a quiche with no pastry - very similar to my leftovers frittata recipe but with the addition of cottage cheese. I love making frittatas because they're great for using up leftovers and perfect for taking to work for lunch.
