  I found this soup surprisingly tasty given the simplicity of the ingredients. It's not the most amazing soup ever but as a very low calorie dish, it is fab for dieters. It makes a whopping 4 liters so the 90 cal serving is a pretty generous 500ml. A fab find for my 5:2 diet fast days.

  Very easy to make - absolutely delicious. My kids loved it! I added a small amount of hot sauce to it and grated cheese on top with Greek yoghurt for the kids, but I had it as it came. Absolutely a firm favourite - it made a huge quantity but was so delicious we ate the lot!

  Very tasty and filling, I added roasted cumin seeds ground down to a powder and Passata instead of whole tomatoes.

  My husband said before I made this "I don't like courgettes" but he soon changed his mind and loved this soup, nice and tasty.

  I halved this recipe and it still made 5 lunch sized portions. I added some chilli flakes and it worked really well. Really warming but low healthy. Great way to use up courgettes dusting the glut season.

  I loved this soup, as did my kids and my parents. It does make a lot so great for the freezer too. Very simple soup and tasty, great for those fussy kids that don't like bits and you don't have to say there is any courgettes in it at all, it'll fool most into a type of tomato soup

  Another incredibly tasty soup from your site. Adding some chilly flakes does give it that special kick. I served it with spelt bread croutons and it tasted wonderfully:) I simply adore BBC GoodFood!

  A really good recipe although I do add crème fraîche after it has been blitzed. I realise that the soup cannot be frozen after that has been added but the soup is usually eaten all up, so no need to freeze. If you think it is bland then add something extra. Experiment with herbs and spices.

  Just made a big batch of this. Its really delicious! Im not a huge fan of putting flour into things to thicken them so I used red split lentils instead. I also didnt have any turmeric so left this out completely. I thought that this may make it a little bland but it didnt. Reaaly lovely soup. A definate keeper

  I increased the turmeric to 1½tsp because I found it very bland and this really helped. This made about 10 plates of soup, so I freezed half of it. The other half we had it in two days so let me tell you, better the second day. (4 stars for the second day)

  I added some fresh chilli and garlic at the beginning before adding the onion and courgette which gave the soup a nice kick. didn't have any turmeric so went without. I used half the quantities and it made loads. Really nice soup, will make again to take to work for lunch.
