Pregpan, funny you should mention that about the soup, I made some yesterday too and I have always given it to the kids as babies. I make mine with soup mix (red lentils, yellow and green split peas and pearl barley), vegetable stock, and seasonal winter veges - potato, pumpkin, swede, parsnip, carrots, celery, onion and a wee bit of salt and pepper, but yeah, I didn't add the salt either and had to add it when we had it for dinner last night. I filled up a tupperware ice cube tray with it so have plenty in reserve for him.
