Would these leftover veg make a tasty soup?

[KeepTheHope]

I've somehow ended up with about 3 carrots, 2 parsnip, two thirds of a swede and a load of potatoes that all need using Asap. I've got a cold so didn't want to do anything that takes too much effort. If I just peel and chop everything, boil in a bit of stock and throw in the blender do you reckon it would come out edible?

If you have lamb stock cubes and some barley you've got a basic Scotch Broth or if you've get a tin of tomatoes and a tin of some sort of bean or five bean salad, add some Italian herbs and its a sort of Italian Wedding Soup, you can add pasta as well and you've got a hearty meal.

I'd do it as a non blended soup - some chicken stock and some small pasta would make it into a nice soup with the veg chopped into small chunks

Ooo they both sound good and I reckon I've got those ingredients in the cupboard, thank you!

I'd add some onion if you've got one (or two) - I'd dice everything up and cook gently in butter for about 15 mins before adding your stock. Maybe some herbs too?

I have onions and herbs, they are definitely going in, thank you!

I felt bad when I opened the fridge and realised we probably weren't going to use any of this veg, feeling very good about it now so thank you all!

Ooo I have courgettes, peppers and a butternut squash do you think they would work together? Also have carrots that I could bung in and various things like ginger, garlic etc.

Add a touch of curry powder or paste. It gives a zing and really helps with a cold.

Ah thanks non, need all the help I can to shift this cold!

DeathMetalMum could you roast them first? Those veg roasted made into soup sound nice to me although maybe I'm just weird
