Bacon & Vegetable Soup is the recipe that started it all – Inspired by Maddy from Forum Thermomix, this is the first recipe I ever released on the Skinnymixers Facebook Group and a very popular one ever since.
It is a hearty, filling and nourishing soup without the calories. Super budget friendly and you can utilise whatever vegetables that you have in the fridge.
The Bacon & Vegetable Soup recipe is a free recipe and it also features in The Healthy Mix Cookbook with updated variations for different dietary needs. Gluten free, dairy free and can easily be made vegetarian, LCHF or Keto.
This healthy Thermomix Soup recipe will quickly become your go-to Soup, when you don’t know what to make for dinner.
You can omit the bacon for a vegetarian version or omit the carrot and pasta for the LCHF / Keto version.
