When you are an on the go mum one of the meals that often gets overlooked is lunch.
You are so busy running around after everyone, getting things done, driving here and there, that it can be easily overlooked.
But as you would know, here at Lose Baby Weight we are focused on giving you ideas for your 3 meals and 2 snacks per day.
Lunch is so important as it helps to ease you through the afternoon, gives you energy to run around after little people, and helps to boost your metabolism in order to shift the baby weight.
Today we have a great recipe for a rich and hearty soup, which is perfect for a quick lunch. Of course, you could have it for dinner as well!
This recipe makes one serve – why not double it and keep another portion in the fridge for the next day.
