Make this recipe a recipe that people in that category can eat. categories: ['low_fat'], recipe: coarsely chop all vegetables. in 1 to 2 batches, put all ingredients except basil into blender. blend until smooth. season with salt and pepper to taste. transfer blended soup to a large bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (cook time is chill time). garnish with basil if desired.

Target recipe: heat the oil in a large pan. add the leeks and garlic, cover and sweat over a low-medium heat for 8 minutes, until tender. add the potatoes, carrots, bell pepper and beans and heat for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. pour over the stock and tomatoes, including their juice. if using whole plum tomatoes, chop them slightly in the pan (i prefer them to be in largish chunks rather than using pre-chopped tomatoes). bring to the boil. add the thyme and simmer for 25 minutes (or until the vegetables are cooked to your liking). add the kidney beans and sweetcorn, then season to taste with salt, pepper and tabasco.
