CREAMY CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM SOUP

Steps:

• Place cold water and flour in a blender and blend until smooth; pour into a medium pot and set heat to medium.
• Add celery, mushrooms, chicken bouillon and butter and bring to a boil.
• Add chicken, cover and simmer on low 15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
• Remove chicken and set aside; continue to cook the remaining soup an additional 5 minutes, until vegetables are soft.
• Place celery and 1 cup of soup into the blender; blend until smooth, then return to the pot and simmer a few minutes.
• Shred or cut the chicken into small pieces and add back to the soup, garnish with fresh parsley.

HEALTHY MUSHROOM SOUP

Steps:

• Slightly rinse the mushrooms with cold water to remove any dirt or debris and pat dry with paper towels (do not soak them). Slice half of the mushrooms and roughly chop the other half.
• In a large saucepan, heat 1 Tbsp of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook gently for about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms, thyme, a good pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring regularly, until the mushrooms start to brown, about 5 minutes. Spoon out 3 tablespoons of mushrooms and keep them for later (if you like to serve the soup topped with saute' mushrooms).
• Stir in the second Tbsp of oil, add the flour and cook, stirring constantly for about 30 seconds to a minute. The flour, the oil and part of the mushroom moisture will form a thick paste called roux that will thicken the broth.
• Add the vegetable broth and stir while returning the mixture to a boil. You want to dissolve all of the flour from the bottom of the pot. After a couple of minutes, as soon as the liquid comes up to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the milk.
• Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes.
• Finally, add the soya sauce and cook for a further minute.Taste and adjust seasoning, as necessary (it depends on the salt content of your vegetable broth)*
• Spoon the soup into bowls, garnish with the remaining mushrooms and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve with toasted bread on the side and enjoy!

WW LOW FAT MUSHROOM SOUP

Steps:

• Put the pearl barley in a pan with 3 cups cold water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 45 minutes, checking on it often to make sure it doesn't boil dry.
• Meanwhile, chop the rest of the veggies, including the garlic.
• Drain the pearl barley, rinse and drain again.
• Put the pearl barley, veggies, garlic and chicken stock in a pan, cover and simmer for 30 minutes until all the veggies are softened.
• Blend the soup well until it is of a smooth consistency.
• This makes quite a thick soup- I like to add milk after blending but you could simply increase the amount of stock you use.

CREAMY CHICKEN CASSEROLE | WEIGHT WATCHERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180oC / 350oF /170oC Fan
• Place the flour, salt and pepper in a bag or tub and add the chicken strips. Toss until they are fully coated with the seasoned flour.
• Heat a quarter of the olive oil in a good non stick pan and add a third of the chicken. Turn a few times until the chicken is sealed on all sides and parts of it have turned a light golden brown. Remove from the pan and place in a large casserole dish.
• Cook the rest of the chicken this way - in two more batches, adding 1/4 tbsp of oil to the pan before adding the chicken. The chicken does not have to be cooked through, it just needs to be sealed to prevent it from becoming dry and tough when baked later.
• Add the last 1/4 tbsp of oil to the pan and scrape up any bits of flour that have stuck to the bottom of the pan. Add the chopped onion and fry for a few minutes until they have started to soften.
• Add the mushroom and saute for a few more minutes. Add a couple of tablespoons of water and cook until the mushrooms have softened and all the water has cooked off.
• Add the minced garlic and saute for a further 1 - 2 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and spoon over the chicken strips.
