Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 rutabaga
1 turnip
1 sweet potato
2 parsnips
1 yellow beet
2 cloves garlic
1 sage leaf
1 sprig thyme
1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
1/2 cup cream
Salt and pepper to taste
1/3 cup sour cream
1/4 cup bacon bits

Steps:

  • Pierce the rutabaga, turnip, sweet potato, parsnips, and beet with a fork. Place all vegetables in a large, microwaveable bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 10-12 minutes, or until each of the veggies are soft to the touch.
  • Cut peels off of each of the veggies; discard. Place half of peeled vegetables in a large blender with half of vegetable broth and cream. Blend until smooth and completely pureed. Pour mixture into medium saucepan. Repeat with remaining vegetables, broth and cream.
  • Heat over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until steaming and hot. Serve topped with sour cream and bacon bits.
