Picture this, its a frigid winter night and you have just returned from a overseas trip ( or a trip on the metro) and you just need food. Because you are a force to be reckoned with, you had enough energy to get yourself to the Farmers market and grab a nice $2 bag of root vegetables but your not quite sure what to do with them. Here is your solution guys. Its such a simple soup, that is warm, comforting, and uses the produce of the winter farmers market that you have no idea what to do with. It also pairs well with some charred bacon on top or a side of greens if this isn’t hearty enough for you.
