I should have mentioned yesterday that the recipe for curried cauliflower soup is a Riverford Organic Vegetables recipe. I have made it loads of times and it is delicious. They have some great recipes.

Another favourite of mine is this tomato soup. It doesn't have to be cooked in a slow cooker of course - I do it because I can just throw everything in and forget it.
