Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups carrots, chopped
- 2 cups bell peppers (any color), chopped
- 1 cup zucchini, chopped
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried basil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking tray by lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
- Prep Vegetables: Chop the carrots, bell peppers, zucchini, onion, and garlic into uniform pieces ensuring even roasting.
- Season Vegetables: In a large bowl, toss the chopped veggies with extra virgin olive oil, dried thyme, dried basil, salt, and pepper, making sure each piece is thoroughly coated for maximum flavor.
- Roast Vegetables: Spread the seasoned vegetables on the prepared baking tray in a single layer. Roast them in the oven for 25-30 minutes until they are tender and caramelized, which enhances their natural sweetness.
- Blend Soup: Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender, add the low-sodium vegetable broth, and blend until smooth or to your preferred consistency, creating a velvety soup base.
- Heat and Season: Pour the blended soup back into a pot and warm it over medium heat. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
- Serve: Ladle the hot soup into bowls and serve immediately for a comforting and skin-nourishing meal.
Notes
- For extra creaminess, add a splash of coconut milk or a dollop of yogurt when blending.
- This soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
- Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or smoked paprika for a spicy twist.
- Use fresh herbs if available for a brighter flavor instead of dried ones.
- To make it vegan, ensure vegetable broth is used, which this recipe already calls for.
