Winter Vegetable Soup

Chase the winter chills with a bowl of hot soup. This colourful, vitamin-rich yet low-fat soup can be made with other Ontario winter vegetables, such as rutabaga or squash. For lunch, take to work in a sealed container and heat in your microwaveable mug. Serve with crusty bread.
