Cassie says, "I love to have this sweet potato, carrot and red pepper-packed creamy tomato soup in the freezer ready for weekend family lunches. It makes enough to serve four adults and four children, so you can make a batch one weekend and freeze the leftovers for a later date.

"Kids will barely notice they're getting their five-a-day in, especially when served alongside my easy cheese, Marmite and spinach pinwheels, which can also be frozen to get ahead too."

Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onion for 8-10 mins until softened and starting to take on a little colour. Add the carrots, garlic, peppers and sweet potato. Cook for a further 10 mins, stirring often and taking care not to burn the garlic. Add the tomatoes, stock, herbs and 1 litre of water. Bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 20 mins until the sweet potato is soft.

  • step 2

    Use a hand blender to whizz the soup until smooth. Stir in the cream and season to taste. Can be chilled for three days or frozen for up to three months.

Hi, thanks for your question. This is quite an easy soup to make, although it involves quite a bit of chopping and also blending - depending on the age of the young person they may need quite a bit of supervision. Our recipe for 'Real tomato soup' is a more simple version…

Hi, thanks for your question. Yes you can use fresh tomatoes - use about 1 kg. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.
