This can be a harvest in itself! If you let this simmer on the stove all day, by dinnertime they'll be drooling just from the aroma. Better keep a close eye on the pot, though, 'cause otherwise there may not be any soup left for supper!

What You'll Need

  • 3 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 5 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 large parsnip, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 medium potato, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 1/2 cups milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried dill (see Note)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

What to Do

  1. In a soup pot, bring the chicken broth, carrots, parsnip, potato, and onion to a boil over medium-high heat.

  2. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

  3. Remove from the heat and mash.

  4. Add the milk, dill, and pepper; mix well and cook over medium-low heat for 6 to 8 minutes, or until heated through.

Notes

If I've got some fresh dill, I like to chop about 1 tablespoon of it for the soup (instead of the dried dill) and sprinkle some more over each serving.
