GINGERED WINTER SQUASH AND ROOT VEGETABLE SOUP



Gingered Winter Squash and Root Vegetable Soup image

Awesome soup, the spices really make it. From Cooking Light January 1997. I make a batch of it every fall and freeze the leftovers. Any left over parsnips (I always buy a bag and use just one for this soup) are great sauteed in bit of olive oil as a side vegetable for another meal. Plain soy milk is fine as a substitute for the skim milk, or it is also good without any milk.
