I always think root veg soup looks a bit grim lol, I'm cooking one now and it looks a bit unappetising haha but I know it'll taste good x

 

[SlimmingKitchen]

What's what's in root veg soup?
I make a lovely broth and kthough it looks rank it tastes soooo good xxx

 

[missy1978]

I make one every Sunday during the winter months with whatever I have in lol

This weeks is sweet potato, swede, parsnip, carrot, leek, garlic and chilli. It looks a lot better now it's blended actually!

 

[Nellylou]

Missy yours looks nice, here's mine:





It was too brown for my liking, thought it would be more orange. It tasted ok, I've had better so will need to experiment!

It is a bit brown haha! What else it you put in it? I think the carrot helped mine although it's a bit too orange if anything! x

Lol it was just butternut squash, 2 small red onions and veg stock and salt and pepper - I was going to put a carrot in but ended up getting loads from the squash! Next time I will add a carrot and maybe some mild curry powder, what do you think? x

I put curry powder in mine last week and it was lovely! Maybe throw in some sweet potato too for orangeness? Today's is just black pepper and cumin, cumin goes so well with root veg x

 

[Nellylou]

I want it to be free on red days as well so no sweet pot, do you think I could stir curry powder in what I have left for tmrw? Sorry all the questions, it's my first soup!!! xx

You could? It would take on some of the flavour and then even more when you reheat it - I'd give it a go! Gonna do a BNS soup next Sunday I think, I fancy a change
