Seasonal Vegetable Cream Soup


Lately I decided to start eating healthy... Again. I thought of making myself something filling, yet healthy, and what can be better than a vegetable soup. I looked in my fridge and found only some potatoes, carrots and cauliflower. But then again in Finland at this time of the year these are seasonal vegetables. Isn't that what all nutritionists recommend, eating seasonal vegetables? So, here's the recipe. I hope you enjoy it!

Ingredients:

3 small potatoes
2 medium-sized carrots
1 small cauliflower-head
1 clove of garlic
4 cups water or vegetable broth
3/4 cup cream or milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper

Directions:
  1. Wash and peel potatoes and carrots and chop them into cubes. Break the cauliflower into smaller pieces. 

  2. In a large casserole bring water or broth to boil and add the vegetables. Cook until the vegetables become soft, for about 20 minutes.
  3. Pour the water from the boiled vegetables in a container. If the soup is too thick you can use this vegetable broth to slightly dilute it.
  4. Mix the vegetables in a blender until the texture is smooth. Add cream or milk, salt and pepper. Your vegetable cream soup is ready! Bon appétit!
