This chunky mixed vegetable soup is a simple, healthy recipe made effortlessly in the Thermomix TM6. Packed with fresh vegetables and full of flavour, it's perfect for batch cooking, meal prep or a quick nutritious lunch. Whether you're using up leftover veg or planning ahead, this soup is as flexible as it is comforting.
After making it for the first time, David's first words after eating a bowl was 'that was just the best'...how happy that made me!! This is definitely one of those soups that will make you feel better if you're unwell. It's very comforting and it's entirely up to you what vegetables you want to use, and it keeps in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.
For the lower quantity of mixed vegetables, I generally use leeks and for the higher quantity of mixed vegetables, I tend to use a mix of carrot, swede, butternut squash and either potato (eg: Maris Piper) or sweet potato.
I really struggle to find ditalini pasta in our local supermarkets, so usually use orzo or short macaroni.

- Add the mixed frozen vegetables, water, vegetable stock paste and salt - bring to the boil and then reduce to a simmer, covered, and cook for 15 minutes
- Add the pasta, bring back to the boil and then reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for the length of time indicated on the packet, then serve.
