Spicy tomato and bean soup is the perfect mid-week meal or to take into work for lunch. It reheats really well and is filling because of the beans.

We recommend using baked beans for your spicy bean and tomato soup (who doesn't have a tin going spare in the cupboard?) and then adding crushed chilli flakes to the top for a little kick. Obviously these can be removed if you have little mouths eating too.

Enjoy with fresh, crusty bread preferably warm from the oven.
