Corned beef soup

 

Since weather is not getting any better/warmer, a soup is still a welcomed dish. 

It could be a classic bean soup, a legumes soup, a meatballs soup or one like today's recipe. With ingredients that we usually have in our panty, if not all, most of them. I usually serve this soup when I'm out of the house for most of the day and my return is late enough. It's quick in preparation and can be different every time, depending on the ingredients that I use.

You could use it as a standard and let your imagination free to use whatever you like. In case you have some of the ingredients in cans/tins, don't hesitate, use them, this is a soup with whatever we have handy.

Enjoy
