25min

Happy Monday, Soupers! It’s soup time and guess what’s on the menu…Roasted Jerusalem Artichoke and Turnip soup and it’s so darn good! When the youngins tell you it’s “lit”, you know you’ve got something good. And you know what else? It’s good for ya. The artichoke is a great replacement for potato and is high in potassium so if you’re trying to stave off hypertension like me, here’s a tasty option! Drizzle with a little olive oil and it’s time to eat!
