Winter Veggie Soup

Here we go! It;s been far too long. Here is a delightful little soup I came up with the other day. Was feeling cold and wanted a comforting and heart soup to fill up my soul. This recipe is super simple, quick and packed with delicious, affordable flavours.

Winter Veggie Soup

Ingredients:
2c Carrots
1/2c Parsnips
1 1/2c Celery
1/2c Spanish Onion
1tsp Chilli Powder
1/4tsp Cayenne
2tsp Cumin
1/2c Cilantro
2tsp Salt
2 1/2c Water

Directions:
1. Chop up all the veggies (Carrots, Parsnips, Celery, Onion) into 1cm cubes and measure from there. Toss them all into a pot of boiling water and let boil until soft. (You can test by poking a fork in them, if the fork can poke through fairly easily, you're good to go.)
2. Using 2 1/2c of the water used to boil the vegetables and the veggies and blend. I used my Blentec blender, but you could easily use any other kind, or even an immersion blender!
3. Toss the spices in and blend some more.
4. Throw in the cilantro (can easily opt out of this if cilantro isn't your thing.) and blend lightly leaving the cilantro fairly in tact.
5. Serve with a spring of cilantro on top so it looks that much better and hot sauce if your spicy heart desires it!!

Stay soupy soul-filled!
