Steps

  • 1

  • If you don’t have all of the root veggies called for in this soup, it’s easy to improvise! Just substitute your favorite root vegetable (turnips, rutabaga, sweet potatoes, potatoes, or parsnips) for any on the list.
  • Like your soup thinner? Thicker? This recipe is very forgiving! Feel free to add more or less chicken broth until your favorite consistency is achieved.
