"This is a creamy, comforting winter soup that is incredibly simple to make. All you need to do is blend together broth and roasted vegetables and heat through. You can make the soup with other roasted vegetables as well, but I love the sweet combination of the carrots and parsnips. If you’ve got roasted vegetables on hand, you’ll need about 4 cups.
