1/4 cup (50 mL)
2-1/2 cups (625 mL)
1 tsp (5 mL)
4-5 cups (1-1.25 L)


olive oil
well washed Ontario Leeks; use white and pale green part sliced
sliced, large Ontario Carrots
sliced, large Ontario Parsnips
peeled and chopped Ontario Apples
chopped fresh dill
chicken stock
granulated sugar
LACTEEZE® Milk, any variety
salt and pepper
dill sprigs
In large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add leeks, carrots, parsnips and apples and cook about 5 minutes, stirring often. Cover, reduce heat to low and cook 10 minutes to soften vegetables. Stir in dill, chicken stock and sugar, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer until vegetables are very tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool slightly. Working in batches, purée vegetables in blender or food processor with some of the milk. Return soup to saucepan and stir in remaining milk. Heat through but do not boil. Season to taste with salt and pepper and thin with additional milk, if desired. Garnish with dill sprigs.
