Pinch of self and black pepper

Wash and chop the mushrooms into small cubs
Peel and chop the potatoes and onions into small cubs

Melt the butter in a pan add all the vegetables and keep stirring until all the vegetables are soft but not brown then transfer to a pot and cover with water just enough to have all the vegetables covered bring to the boil and when bubbling reduce to simmer and add stock cubs and stir and cover for 20 minutes stirring every few minutes when you can squash vegetables on the side of the pot it's time to blend it all up then return to the pot add the milk , salt and pepper and stir over heat for 2 minutes ...

Please do and enjoy and don't worry about the butter as it helps stop dumping and the veg are part of your 5 a day and the stock cubs only have 7 cal each the milk is protein of the day and I promise you will enjoy and the whole family will enjoy it and you wont feel like your eating any different just add brown soda bread for the rest of the family and hey presto lunch is served xx

I've made poking soup pre bypass but am sure it would still be ok post. Rust insides of the pumpkin with a little olive oil, or you could just cook in the stock.
Chop large onion and fry in tbl spoon butter with sons garlic, add pumpkin and chicken stock and simmer til soft. Season I normally add large spoon low fat Creme fresh, but milk would be ok and then blitz. Sometimes. I add nutmeg to it, season as you like. It's simple but tasty.
