09of 18Use-It-Up Vegetable SoupView RecipePhotography / Jenny Huang, Food Styling / Tyna Hoang, Prop Styling / Nicole LouieFor the best results, choose one “star” vegetable and no more than 3 supporting ones to prevent the flavors from getting muddy—go green with a mixture of broccoli stems, cauliflower leaves and core, wilted kale and spinach, or get a beta carotene boost with leftover winter squash, wrinkly carrots and a parsnip. The addition of potato (perhaps an old one that’s growing roots?) and a scoop of oats give the soup a luxurious mouthfeel without cream, while lemon juice brightens the flavor.
