I have made several soups in the soup maker using one leftover portion of casserole or similar and they have always turned out well. This time, I looked at the one remaining portion of stuffed marrow (actually an overgrown courgette) and thought "why not".
I added a few extra bits and pieces (although I left out the small "courgette" as once I'd trimmed it I realised it was our last cucumber from the veg plot so added an extra potato instead!).
It made a really tasty soup, one of the best ever, and you can see the recipe for stuffed marrow (courgette) here.
Ingredients
1 portion of stuffed marrow, cut into chunks
3 small potatoes
2 medium carrots
1 onion
1 tomato
1 vegetable stock pot
Method
Peel, wash and roughly chop enough veg so that when the leftover meat dish is added last it will all fill the machine to the bottom line. I have occasionally found that leftover meat dishes stick to the bottom of the machine and adding them last seems to prevent this from happening. Top up with another chopped carrot or potato if there's room, or maybe some celery if you have some.
Add the stock pot and water to fill to the top line. Cook on smooth.
Test for seasoning before serving as the leftover meat dish will already have been well seasoned.
Makes 4 generous portions.
