Carrot Turnip And Potato Soup by Leigh561

Delicious!!!
My family said it tastes so much better than my regular Baked Potato Soup! (I didn't tell them what vegetables were in it ;) I love that this soup has no cream or dairy in it, but is super creamy just by pureeing it.
I added a sprig of rosemary along with the bay leaf and two parsnips along with the chopped carrots to make up the cup and half called for.
I cooked some bacon ahead of time and used the fat to sauté the onion in; and served the soup with the cooked bacon, green onions, croutons and some grated parmesan.
I will definitely make this again and look forward to it!

I almost made the soup below but didn't have the squash, if you prefer butternut squash over turnips try this by Luisa: Cream Of Vegetable Soup

Nice photo, Cosmicmother! It looks so warm and hearty. I think turnips can really add to the flavor. I had a friend who made the best mashed potatoes. Her secret was adding a turnip. If she didn't tell, no one would ever know.

Lovely photo Shona, you make it sound so good that i saved it:)
I like the fact that it has no dairy also, and i like that you put rosemary in it.

Thanks Ladies :)
I agree Diz, turnips (and rutabaga's) add so much flavor but you'd never know it's in there! They are an under utilized and under appreciated vegetable! ;)

What a gorgeous bowl of soup Shona! I would LOVE everything in this, not sure if I could get away with the turnips with the family, or if they would even like pureed soup, but I could make this for myself!! Luisa's recipe looks yummy too :)
