Orange Zest, Broccoli & Leek Soup

"Low GI and awesome. I was surprised when I first tried this to find that the little amount of orange zest I added was enough to create such a wonderful flavour combined with the other ingredients. This is not a blended soup, so it still feels like you're eating a full meal by itself and when frozen, the flavours will intensify giving the soup a bit more bite."
