Last week, Guadalupe shared her ideas for serving her daughter more vegetables in the fall. One of her ideas was soups! We love this Health eKitchen soup recipe because it features seasonal root vegetables like carrot, sweet potato, rutabaga, and parsnip. Plus, because it is so creamy and colorful, children can't resist trying it!
