[quote=Anonymous]When I was small my Nanny typically made soup (from about September through May) and we had it with a little bread or a quarter egg/cream cheese sandwich if the soup didn’t have meat or lentils/beans. As an adult I was told my mom/nanny added puréed veggies to the soups to make sure we got all the vegetables kids don’t seek out (zucchini, turnips, radishes). We ate fruit after lunch (and after dinner).

In summer it was typically a more substantial sandwich with cut vegetables and yogurt dip.

I do not remember either my mother or my nanny making a big production of this, I think they each made a batch or two of soup every week and I imagine we rotated through them.

My daughter gets soup for lunch but I make it myself. She’s in a stage where she likes repetition so while I still add puréed veggies, I only make one or two soups a week. Technology helps me here and I put in the pasta made with lentils chickpeas so she always has protein even in a vegetarian soup. [/quote]
