Bacon and Vegetable Soup

This creation came about from my recent cleanse/detox week.

Chop 3 slices bacon and saute. Add:

4 leeks, chopped

1/4 bunch celery, chopped

handful peppers from freezer

2 carrots, chopped

4 potatoes, chopped

handful frozen cauliflower and frozen par-boiled turnips

2 thyme sprigs

2 cans chicken broth

Cook all until vegetables are very tender. Blend with immersion blender until slightly smooth. I left some chunks in the soup.

This recipe seemed to cleverly disguise the turnips and cauliflower (Paul is not a turnip fan and Eleanor is not a cauliflower fan....although both will eat these vegetables).
