"If you cannot get a celeriac or have never used it and don’t feel adventurous enough to try a new vegetable, please use a different root vegetable, such as sweet potato, parsnip, rutabaga, or turnip.

• Ingredients: 7
• Serves: 8

ingredients

• 1 celeriac, peeled and cut into small chunks
• 1 stem broccoli, cut into florets
• 2 carrots, peeled and cut into small chunks

directions

1. In a large pan, place all the vegetables and add vegetable stock or water and vegetable cubes to the level that barely covers the vegetables.
2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook until all the vegetables are tender. (If you have a pressure cooker, cook about 8 minutes under pressure and use a natural releasing method.).
3. Use a hand blender, blender or food processor to purée the soup.
4. Add curry powder (optional). Add salt if necessary (I didn’t use any.).
5. Add chickpeas.
6. Infuse love and serve!
