I hope you try it. <br /><br />@orannia Hope you like this one! <br /><br />@Joy Weese Moll If you like turnips, you could certainly add more to your liking. It will make the recipe your own! :) <br /><br />@Shelly Munro We actually had two turnips in our co-op box last week. I used one in this soup and the other smaller one... I chopped it raw into my green salad and it wasn't bad at all! Milder than I expected which is good. It took me almost three weeks to eat all of two very large black radishes we got in our co-op.. that was brutal. lolChristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00420773211895134710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-32752143522593732382012-02-27T13:32:01.026-05:002012-02-27T13:32:01.026-05:00I love soup during the winter and look forward to ...I love soup during the winter and look forward to trying this one in the coming months.

I don't normally eat potato soup, but I love that this is one is vegan since I'm following a vegetarian diet. I hope to become vegan eventually. Don't like turnips so I think I'll use another potato, thanks for the tip!ilovecookinghttp://www.topholidayrecipes.com/index.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-75440070159453716052012-02-26T21:11:05.761-05:002012-02-26T21:11:05.761-05:00@Diane (bookchickdi) Thanks for checking out my We...@Diane (bookchickdi) Thanks for checking out my Weekend Cooking. :) <br />I've got my eye on the Cuisinart SmartStick immersion blender. Which one do you have?<br /><br />@caite Well if you're not vegan or looking for a vegetarian meal, by all means use some chicken stock in place of the water. It would add nice flavor to the soup. <br /><br />@Beth F Which model immersion blender do you have? I really want to get one. <br /><br />@Peggy Ann This soup was just what I needed on Saturday to warm me up--lovely in the middle of winter. I very rarely eat soup mid May-mid Sept unless its gazpacho. ;)<br /><br />@Chinoiseries Another home chef with an immersion blender! Which one do you have? <br /><br />@Alex Yay! I hope you like the soup! Let me know how it turns out. <br /><br />@Carol @ Always Thyme to Cook You know I have to ask... what model immersion blender do you use? <br /><br />@Brandy I know what you mean! I wish I had my oma's potato soup recipe, too! My oma used to make it in mid to late summer [on Eastern Long Island probably with the first harvest of local potatoes] and it was lightly tinted green. I'm not sure if it was from leeks, parsley or chives, but it was so pretty and out of this world delicious. Seriously, it was perfect. And I'll never taste it again.. :( <br /><br />@nath I love potatoes, too. Especially in soups or stews. So comforting. I hope you [or will it be your sister? haha ] try the recipe! Let me know how it turns out. :)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00420773211895134710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-65979333852406163612012-02-26T12:18:31.936-05:002012-02-26T12:18:31.936-05:00Well it still looks very yummy :) You know, I love...Well it still looks very yummy :) You know, I love potatoes, but rarely eat it in soups or salad... going to have to try.nathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02626894830238717124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-5300681728844652412012-02-26T03:37:26.185-05:002012-02-26T03:37:26.185-05:00You're making me drool.
