British Winter Root Soup Recipe

When the weather outside hits the minus scale and going out just seems so frightful, then it is time to wrap up, hunker down, and eat some hearty, filling, and warming foods. Nothing fits this bill quite so well as this hearty winter root soup that's guaranteed to have you tingling from head to toe. The heartiness in the soup comes from the use of root vegetables for filling you up and giving you added vitamins so needed when sunlight is scarce. You can also add in a few winter greens such as kale or florets of broccoli to ring the changes. The soup is so thick it could almost be mistaken for a vegetable stew. If you would prefer a stew, just use a little less stock.
