Roasted Garlic Onion and Potato Soup

This roasted garlic onion potato soup is made from just 6 ingredients, it’s vegan and is a perfect way to use up surplus potatoes. 

This roasted garlic onion potato soup is one of my ideal “what’s left in the kitchen cupboard” recipes.

I  just know that you’re going to love it!

It’s an easy, tasty variation of the classic potato soup recipe, adding a bit of a twist with the roasted garlic.

And it all comes together as a bowl of simple, low cost nourishment!

Plus it’s thick and creamy, but made without any cream. That makes it fat free and low calorie.

It’s a great comforting bowl of goodness on a cold winters day!

And talking about cold winters’ day’s. If you liked this roasted garlic onion potato soup, you make equally love my Scottish leek and potato soup!

My last blog recipe update, kale and pepper frittata, ended with a note that “change is afoot” and I didn’t want to go into too much there, and I won’t bore you here with all the details now.

I will just simply say that my blog schedule of posting 2 new recipes weekly, on Tuesday and Thursday may not always happen over the coming weeks as I am leaving my current employment on 28th November (I’m taking voluntary redundancy) and seeking a new opportunity.

So I’m sure you’ll understand this will now take priority.

There are no hard feelings with leaving, I worked for an amazing company, and now it is the time to move on and to seek a new opportunity with new skills to learn and people to meet. 🙂

If I’m not able to post a recipe update, bare with me. I love doing my cooking and sharing me recipes with you, but it doesn’t pay the bills. Yet!

So, moving on to the weekend! Lynne and I hope that we can get out for a walk in The Lomond Hills on Saturday. These hills are situated in Fife and if you can see off them, then you get a fantastic view of the surrounding fife farming countryside and can even see as far as St. Andrews and Leven.

However I wouldn’t hold your breath 😮 (I won’t be). It’s hard to see further than my outstretched hand when I’m outside at the moment. Lol. 😉

Anyway, it would be good to practice my outdoor landscape photography and actually to get some good clean fresh Scottish air. Catch up with you all next week and have a fantastic weekend!
