Looking for a delicious soup for a chilly winter day? Grab some turnips, potatoes, and your slow cooker and prepare to be impressed with the results. We combined these hearty root vegetables with garlic, thyme, chicken stock, and a little heavy cream to make a deliciously creamy and smooth soup with little hands-on time. An immersion blender makes pureeing this soup a breeze, but if you dont have one, you can transfer the soup to a blender. We love topping this turnip soup with crispy bacon and sauted turnip greens, but you can also toss on some croutons and a drizzle of olive oil. Make this soup vegetarian by omitting the bacon and replacing chicken stock with vegetable stock.
