Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    If desired, vegetable broth can be substituted for the chicken broth in this Roasted Root Vegetable Bisque recipe.
  • tip 2
    If you don’t have Cajun seasoning, Old Bay™ seasoning can be used in this roasted root vegetable soup instead.
  • tip 3
    These roasted root vegetables make a lovely side dish on their own! If serving them as a side, be sure to season to taste with salt and pepper before roasting.
