As tradition goes, the mighty haggis is served with "neeps and tatties" - turnips and potatoes. I already mashed the potatoes (recipe coming soon), so with only an hour left before guests were to arrive I had to figure out what to do with these turnips. I hadn't worked with them before, so I concluded that I should roast them. As I got to work on what was originally going to be a cheddar bacon soup, I looked at the clock and realized time was running out, my guests would arrive any minute!

The process of making the soup has not changed since that first night, and I foresee my loved ones enjoying it for many years to come. Since its creation, it has been described by one of my friends as, "The kind of soup that prepares a man for war!".
