It’s soup season! I’ve been digging through my archives for some of my favorite soup recipes and decided I needed to branch out from my go-to soups and try something new, an autumnal parsnip soup made by roasting the peppery and earthy flavored veggie alongside some sweet fall apples, fragrant fresh herbs, and some potatoes to give the soup a thick, hearty base. After they all get roasted and softened, it’s as easy as blending them with some warm chicken stock to get your soup on the table – yum!

- Assemble parsnips, potatoes, apples, shallots, garlic, and herbs on a rimmed backing sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and celery seed.
