Creamy Potato and Celeriac Soup

25min

Happy Sunday, Soupers! So we’ve been dying to make a celeriac soup again! This time the outcome was more to our liking!

Mixed with a little celery and white potatoes and it’s a perfect soup for a cloudy, chilly spring day! And, if you add a little flatbread, you’ve got a complete meal! Finally, getting your snarky teen to eat it and enjoy are goals! So go ahead and try it for yourself and let us know what you think!
