Wholesome Celeriac Soup
Celeriac is a very underrated vegetable, maybe not surprisingly as it isn’t the most attractive. Beautiful on the inside… and it’s tasty.
It is a great low carb alternative to potatoes and gives a fresh but mild celery taste to many dishes. It is in fact a type of celery which is purely grown for its root.
Nutrients: providing vitamins B6, C and K, and minerals such as phosphorus, potassium and manganese.
