Comments: This soup is a bit of work but very much worth the trouble. My hubby who thinks he doesn't like squash even loved it! I wasn't sure about the parsnips myself but mixed in with the other flavors, it was great. I'll be making this again!

Comments: This soup is so delicious and creamy. I added 2 cups of whole kernel corn which made it more nutricious and interesting texture.

Comments: We are a family of soup lovers and I am always trying out new recipes. This one was a big hit. I chose not to puree the entire batch of soup because we prefer chunky-style soups. I also added more veggies, much better for you too. This one is a keeper.

Comments: After ladling a portion of soup per person, I squirted a spiral of sour cream from a generic plastic bottle--the type used for catsup and mustard--atop each bowl, which made a beautiful presentation. Absolutely delicious.
