Finally My Kids Approved this Tomato and Parmesan Soup
My kids can be fussy little shits sometimes. Yours? Flip. Yoh! They liked tomato soup….from Woolworths. But that “healthy homemade” Woolies soup had waaaaaaay too much sugar for my liking.

Making these roasted vegetable tarts is definitely one of…
