This creamy roots soup a wonderful dish that I’ve made from time to time over the years. Every time I make it I tell myself I need to make it more often. I’ve provided some ingredient options and you can adjust it to your own taste, but make sure to include the parsnip. Parsnip is the magic ingredient that makes this soup slightly pungent and very delightful.
To add interest to a light, healthy lunch or supper, serve with a slightly sweet bread like these lemon poppy-seed muffins.
These almond flour and honey drop biscuits are light and pleasing, and gluten-free. They might even win out over conventional flour biscuits. They’d be great and an added protein boost alongside a hearty, healthy main-dish soup.

Here is a hearty apple cider-venison stew recipe. A hunter friend who tasted it told me that people who think they don’t like venison should try this recipe. If you don’t have deer meat, elk is similar to venison, or use beef stew meat.

This yam pie is festive, flavorful, and, with its deep orange color, pretty. What a great way to eat your vegetables! Make it in a brown rice flour crust for added nutrition and no gluten.
