This soup is super flavourful and definetly on the lighter side. Delicious!
We grew pattypan squash in our garden this summer and made this soup with it. I want to bathe in the soup! So delicious. Thanks!
The soup is great, hearty and filling but not too heavy. And it freezes great! <3
Loved this soup. Suddenly realised I made it with sun dried tomatoes so that works too 🥴👍🏻. Thankful that you also write litres and gram in your recipes. That makes it so much easier for me, since that is what I am used to in Norway.
My mother in law brought us a huuuge Zucchini from her garden last week, so I decided to give this recipe a go. It's super simple, quick and very delicious. Greetings from Germany, Julia 🤗
Hello, which would be a better substitute for sun dried paprika in this recipe, roasted red peppers in oil or sundried tomatoes?
Love your recipes!
This is one of my favourite soup recipes ever! I literally make it on repeat in the winter time.
This is a go to recipe! My husband loves it and we have made it at least once a month or more since the video was released. We never could find sun dried bell pepper in our country, but sun dried tomatoes make a delicious substitute. It’s incredible with some homemade baguette for dipping ☺️
Easy, speedy, delicious... You promised something like "a hug in a bowl" and this did not disappoint! And my mom, a BIG fan of soups, absolutely loved it. Well done!
Loved the soup - it was so easy and delicious. This reminded me of the red pepper pesto pasta which has become one of my favorite pasta recipes.
Very delicious, easy to cook and gets even better the following days!
Can I substitute red bell peppers with green bell peppers? I only have green bell peppers on hand, but I read that red bell peppers give a sweeter flavor than green. I also don't want to make a trip to the store just for red bell peppers.
One of my favourite recipes! It's fast, freezes well and tastes so delicious. A staple in our house :)
